A collection of skills for AI coding agents, to help them understand and work with Firebase more effectively.

It is read for editorial metadata only — never as the skill index, which is always the repository tree./firebase/agent-skills.md, and each chapter at its own .md URL.skillsnpx skills add firebase/skillsThis repository is configured as a Gemini CLI extension. You can add it using the Gemini CLI:

instruction files)The skills CLI also supports installing skills from a local directory. If you
have cloned this repository, you can add skills by pointing the CLI to your
local folder:
npx skills add /path/to/your/local/firebase-skills/skillsIf you make changes to the local skills repository and want to update your project with the new changes, you can update them by running:
npx skills experimental_installIf you are actively contributing to or developing these skills, using
npx skills add or copying files means you have to manually update them every
time you make a change. Instead, use a symlink so that changes in your local
clone are immediately reflected in your test project.
For example, to test with Cursor:
ln -s /path/to/firebase-skills/skills /path/to/your/test-project/.cursor/rulesgit checkout -b feature/amazing-featuregit commit -m 'Add amazing feature'git push origin feature/amazing-featureThis project is licensed under the Apache 2 License - see the LICENSE (opens in a new tab) file for details.
