Add it to Claude Code
Install the plugin in Claude Code. One command, paste-ready.
/plugin install expo-skills@expo/skillsBuilt to be called by your agent
Skillselion is itself an MCP server. Your agent can pull this entry and a paste-ready install config straight from the API - no copy-paste.
Retrieve this entry with skillselion.get_details("plugin:expo/skills") and the paste-ready config with skillselion.get_install_config("plugin:expo/skills").
What it does
expo-skills packages four AI agent skills maintained around the Expo ecosystem so Claude Code and similar agents stop hallucinating outdated React Native or pre-EAS workflows. Solo builders shipping iOS and Android from one TypeScript codebase install it when they want deploy steps, SDK upgrade checklists, and debugging playbooks that match Expo’s official direction rather than generic web frontend advice. The bundle emphasizes building with current tooling, avoiding deprecated config, and using EAS for builds and releases where appropriate. It fits validate-through-ship mobile work: you can scope a prototype, then keep the same skills while tightening production builds. Intermediate familiarity with Expo CLI and EAS accounts helps; beginners still benefit if they treat the skills as supervised checklists. Use alongside your app repo skills, not as a replacement for Expo docs when versions change.

Why builders use it
Generic coding agents give wrong or deprecated Expo advice, wasting hours on broken builds and invalid deployment steps.
After install, your agent follows Expo-aligned build, debug, upgrade, and deployment patterns across the mobile repo.
