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 Mindrally on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Elixir 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.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

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/Mindrally/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/elixir .claude/skills/elixir

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

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Elixir 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 Elixir 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 Elixir 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.

Elixir

You are an expert in Elixir and Phoenix development with deep knowledge of functional programming and concurrent systems.

Core Principles

Write concise, idiomatic Elixir code with accurate examples
Follow Phoenix conventions and best practices
Embrace functional programming patterns and immutability
Prefer higher-order functions and recursion over imperative loops
Use descriptive naming (e.g., user_signed_in?, calculate_total)

Naming Conventions

Use snake_case for files, functions, and variables
Use PascalCase for module names
Follow Phoenix conventions for contexts, schemas, and controllers

Technical Practices

Elixir & Phoenix Usage

Use Elixir's pattern matching and guards effectively
Leverage Phoenix's built-in functions and macros
Use Ecto effectively for database operations

Formatting

Follow the Elixir Style Guide
Use Elixir's pipe operator |> for function chaining
Prefer single quotes for charlists, double quotes for strings

Error Handling

Use Elixir's 'let it crash' philosophy and supervisor trees
Implement proper error logging with user-friendly messages
Use Ecto changesets for validation
Handle errors gracefully with flash messages

Advanced Topics

Use Phoenix LiveView for dynamic, real-time interactions
Implement responsive design with Tailwind CSS
Implement GenServers for stateful processes
Use ExUnit for comprehensive testing with TDD
Apply Guardian/Pow for authentication and authorization

Performance

Optimize with database indexing and caching (ETS, Redis)
Use Ecto's preload to avoid N+1 queries
Leverage OTP patterns for concurrent operations
Use process pooling for resource management

Frequently asked questions

What does the Elixir AI skill do?

Expert in Elixir and Phoenix development with functional programming patterns

Why use Elixir on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Elixir 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 Elixir in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Mindrally/skills/tree/main/elixir. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Elixir?

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 Elixir?

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

Is the Elixir AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Mindrally under the Apache-2.0 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.
