journey is a Claude Code skill that searches the Journey registry and installs pre-built agent workflow kits for developers who need reusable automation workflows without hand-authoring every step.

About

journey is a Claude Code skill for discovering and installing reusable agent workflows called kits from the Journey registry at journeykits.ai. The skill queries the live Journey API (GET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/journey) for up-to-date kit metadata, then guides installation when a developer mentions Journey, asks for a kit, or needs a workflow template. Each kit is a documented multi-step agent workflow packaged for coding agents. Developers reach for journey when bootstrapping agent automation, onboarding teams to shared workflow patterns, or avoiding one-off skill authoring for common tasks.

  • Searches the Journey registry using natural language queries
  • Supports 9 distinct agent targets including claude-code, cursor, codex, cline, windsurf, jules, aider, openclaw and gene
  • Returns structured install instructions tailored to your chosen agent platform
  • Fetches real-time kit details and full workflow documentation on demand
  • Works completely offline using the compact summary when the network is unavailable

How do you find and install pre-built agent workflows?

Instantly discover and install pre-built agent workflows from the Journey registry when they mention needing a kit or workflow.

Who is it for?

Developers standardizing Claude Code or Cursor agents with shared, registry-hosted workflow kits.

Skip if: Developers building fully custom agent logic who do not want third-party workflow templates from an external registry.

When should I use this skill?

The user mentions Journey, journeykits.ai, wants to find a kit, or asks to install a pre-built agent workflow.

What you get

Installed Journey kit workflows, registry metadata, and configured agent skill files.

  • Installed Journey kit workflow
  • Registry kit metadata

Journey — search and install kits

Journey base URL: https://www.journeykits.ai

For the full, up-to-date workflow (doc version, extra endpoints, publishing, org flows), fetch:

GET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/journey

This file is a compact offline-friendly summary. When online, prefer refreshing from that endpoint before complex installs.

What Journey is

Journey is a registry of reusable agent workflows called kits. Each kit is a documented workflow (usually kit.md plus optional skills/, tools/, src/, etc.). You discover kits via search, then install with a target so the API returns structured install instructions for your specific agent platform.

Key API endpoints

ActionRequest
Search kitsGET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/search?q=<url-encoded-query>
Kit detailGET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/<owner>/<slug>
Install a kitGET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/<owner>/<slug>/install?target=<target>&ref=latest
Full guideGET https://www.journeykits.ai/api/kits/journey

Always include `?target=` on install. Available targets: claude-code, cursor, codex, cline, windsurf, jules, aider, openclaw, generic. Without target, you get a raw bundle only; with it, you get files, preflightChecks, nextSteps, dependencyKits, compatibilityNotes, verification, and instructions.

Detect your target from context: Claude Code → claude-code, Cursor → cursor, Codex → codex, Cline → cline, Windsurf → windsurf, Jules → jules, Aider → aider. If unsure, use generic.

Workflow

1. SearchGET .../api/kits/search?q=... and pick a result (kitRef is owner/slug). 2. Inspect — optional GET .../api/kits/<owner>/<slug> before installing. 3. InstallGET .../api/kits/<owner>/<slug>/install?target=<target>&ref=latest. 4. Process the install response in order:

  • If selfContained is false, read the kit's Setup and Constraints before proceeding.
  • Install dependency kits first if dependencyKits is non-empty.
  • Run preflightChecks (shell commands); stop if a required check fails.
  • Write every entry in files under suggestedRootDir, preserving paths. Respect `writeMode: "append"` — append to existing config files, do not overwrite.
  • Follow nextSteps, review compatibilityNotes, run verification if present.
  • Read `kit.md` in the written tree as the primary workflow guide.

Authentication

Public search and most kit pages work without a key. Private kits, org flows, and publishing need an agent API key (Authorization: Bearer <token>). Do not bootstrap new agent identities as part of casual install flows unless the user explicitly asks.

How it compares

Pick journey when you want registry-hosted, installable workflow kits; write custom skills when workflows must be fully bespoke and not depend on an external catalog.

FAQ

What is a Journey kit?

A Journey kit is a documented, reusable agent workflow published in the Journey registry at journeykits.ai. The journey skill searches that registry and installs kits as agent-ready workflow packages for coding assistants.

How does journey stay up to date?
