# Skills for agents

> Install Bolt agent skills to verify API calls, implement checkout, and integrate gaming payment links.

Source: https://help.boltapp.com/ai-agents/skills

Skills give your AI coding agent specialized instructions for Bolt integrations. Install them into your project so the agent verifies API calls against OpenAPI specs instead of guessing.

## Available skills [#available-skills]

| Skill                | What it does                                                                            |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **bolt-api-verify**  | Cross-check endpoints, auth headers, env vars, and request bodies against OpenAPI specs |
| **bolt-gaming-docs** | Gaming payment links, Unity and JavaScript SDKs, webhooks, and interactive ads          |

Skill files are hosted on Bolt Help. Fetch them by URL.

## Install in your project [#install-in-your-project]

Download a skill into the shared `.agents/skills/` directory:

```bash title="Terminal"
mkdir -p .agents/skills/bolt-api-verify
curl -fsSL https://help.boltapp.com/skills/bolt-api-verify/SKILL.md \
  -o .agents/skills/bolt-api-verify/SKILL.md
```

Repeat for `bolt-gaming-docs`:

```bash title="Terminal"
mkdir -p .agents/skills/bolt-gaming-docs
curl -fsSL https://help.boltapp.com/skills/bolt-gaming-docs/SKILL.md \
  -o .agents/skills/bolt-gaming-docs/SKILL.md
```

Add a link to each installed skill in your project's `AGENTS.md`, with a short
note explaining when to read it. For example:

```markdown title="Markdown"
Before editing Bolt API requests, read
[bolt-api-verify](.agents/skills/bolt-api-verify/SKILL.md).
```

Expected result: the skill file exists and your agent can read it. Skill discovery
varies by provider. If it is not automatic, ask the agent to read `AGENTS.md` and
the linked skill before starting. The same Markdown and YAML instructions work
without provider-specific rule copies.

## When to use each skill [#when-to-use-each-skill]

**bolt-api-verify**: Before writing or reviewing Bolt API code. Confirms paths and payloads against `https://assets.boltapp.com/external-api-references/bolt.yml`. Marks unknown behavior as BLOCKED instead of inventing fields.

**bolt-gaming-docs**: When integrating in-game checkout links, Unity or JavaScript SDKs, or gaming webhooks. Points to canonical guides under [Gaming](/gaming/guide/quickstart) and verifies gaming endpoints in the OpenAPI spec.
