Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by IgniteUI on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-angular/tree/master/.agents/skills/igniteui-angular-skill-authoring
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-angular.git /tmp/igniteui-angular
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/igniteui-angular/.agents/skills/igniteui-angular-skill-authoring .claude/skills/igniteui-angular-skill-authoring

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Ignite UI for Angular — Skill Authoring

Quick-reference for writing a SKILL.md that agents can discover and load reliably.

Location

Internal, contributor-facing skills: .agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md
Public skills that ship with the package: skills/<name>/SKILL.md
The folder name must match the name field.

Frontmatter

Field	Rules
`license`	Required. Must specify the license under which the skill is released. Default is MIT.
`name`	Required. Max 64 characters. Lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only. No XML tags. No reserved words (`anthropic`, `claude`). Use the `igniteui-angular-` prefix.
`description`	Required. Non-empty. Max 1,024 characters. No XML tags.

Write the description in the third person: say what the skill covers, then add both markers:

WHEN TO USE: the tasks or triggers that should load the skill.
WHEN NOT TO USE: nearby tasks it does not cover, naming the skill to use instead.

Agents see only name and description until they load the skill, so the description decides whether it is ever used.

Token Budget

Keep the SKILL.md body under 500 lines.
If it grows past that, use progressive disclosure: keep the overview and core rules in SKILL.md and move detail into references/<topic>.md files.
Link each reference file directly from SKILL.md (one level deep) and say when to read it, so agents load it only when needed.

MCP Servers in Public Skills

Which MCP server a public skill requires depends on what it covers:

Skill covers	Required server	Verification call
Component or grid usage (selectors, imports, inputs, outputs, methods)	`igniteui-cli`	`list_components` with `framework: "angular"`
Theming (palettes, themes, typography, elevations, component design tokens)	`igniteui-theming`	`detect_platform`

A skill that covers both, such as building views from a design, requires both servers. For each required server, the skill must:

Verify the server before any other step, using the call in the table.
If the tool is missing, tell the agent to configure it itself with npx -y igniteui-cli ai-config (or ig ai-config), ask the user to reload, and stop. Continuing without the server happens only at the user's explicit request, with unverified details flagged.
Never describe the server as optional or add "when available" fallbacks.

Follow the existing wording in igniteui-angular-components and igniteui-angular-theming.

Checklist

Frontmatter passes the rules above.
The description includes WHEN TO USE: and WHEN NOT TO USE:.
The body is under 500 lines, and every reference file is linked from SKILL.md.
Public skills include the required MCP server check: igniteui-cli for component usage, igniteui-theming for theming.
The skill is listed in the Skills table in AGENTS.md. Internal skills are also listed in .agents/README.md and .github/copilot-instructions.md.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring AI skill do?

Why use Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-angular/tree/master/.agents/skills/igniteui-angular-skill-authoring. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Igniteui Angular Skill Authoring AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by IgniteUI under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
