Create Admin User

Create a new admin user in Medusa with the specified email and password.

The user will provide two arguments:

First argument: email address
Second argument: password

For example: /medusa-dev:user admin@test.com supersecret

Use the Bash tool to execute the command npx medusa user -e <email> -p <password>, replacing <email> with the first argument and <password> with the second argument.

Report the results to the user, including:

Confirmation that the admin user was created successfully
The email address of the created user

How this issue was made

Source

github.com/medusajs/medusa-agent-skills, branch main, last pushed 22 September 2026.

Licence

Discovery

18 skills found by walking the repository tree for SKILL.md, not by matching a directory convention. 4 distinct layouts observed: plugins/ecommerce-storefront/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/learn-medusa/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/medusa-cloud/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/medusa-dev/skills/*/SKILL.md.

Issue colours

Resolved from a deterministic hash of the owner name. Two accent tones are generated per issue and each is proven against its own ground before it ships: a single accent that passes AA on both light and dark paper is arithmetically impossible.

Heading repairs

1 repair applied to this skill so the document has one h1 and no skipped levels:

Shifted “1 heading” from h1 to h2 so the skill title is the only h1.

Spec compliance

3 editorial notes across 2 of 18 skills. They are printed in the margin of each skill rather than as errors here.

Mcloud Auth — 2 notes

Images

Images inside a skill come from the upstream repository. Where the author gave no alternative text we mark the image decorative rather than inventing a description — a plausible caption we made up is worse than none for the reader who depends on it.

Marketplace

A plugin manifest is published at .claude-plugin/marketplace.json by Medusa, declaring 4 plugins. It is read for editorial metadata only — never as the skill index, which is always the repository tree.

Signal

Install counts come from skills.sh. They measure downloads, not quality, and an unranked repository is not an unread one.

Agent surfaces

The whole issue is available as one markdown document at /medusajs/medusa-agent-skills.md, and each skill at its own .md URL.

Publication

Set by Skills Docs from the source repository. Body text is Literata at the reader’s chosen size and measure; code is Geist Mono. Nothing on this page was written by us except this paragraph.
