ably-agent-skills is a plugin marketplace that supplies official Ably SDK, auth, and CLI debugging skills for Claude Code agents.
About
ably-agent-skills is the official Ably Claude Code marketplace that packages realtime messaging expertise into the ably plugin with using-ably and debugging-with-ably-cli skills. developers adding live chat, presence, collaborative editing, or event streams install it during build when they want the agent to recommend SDK flows, auth models, and channel design grounded in current documentation—not stale blog posts. The debugging skill complements implementation by routing connection and presence problems through Ably CLI workflows, which shrinks time lost to opaque websocket failures. strict is false on the manifest, giving flexible skill invocation during iterative integration work. It is vendor-specific by design: skip if you are not on Ably; prefer it over generic realtime snippets when you need doc-aligned answers and operational debugging in one marketplace bundle.
- Two bundled skills: using-ably and debugging-with-ably-cli
- Expert patterns for auth, product selection checked against live Ably docs
- CLI-powered diagnostics for connection, messaging, and presence issues
- Official Ably marketplace (Apache-2.0, v1.0.0) from github.com/ably/agent-skills
