  • 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.

  • 26 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by VectorSpaceLab on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

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

1

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.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/VectorSpaceLab/AREX-Skill/tree/main/skills/repositories/repo-skills/agentscope
  4. 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/VectorSpaceLab/AREX-Skill.git /tmp/AREX-Skill
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/AREX-Skill/skills/repositories/repo-skills/agentscope .claude/skills/agentscope
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Agentscope 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 Agentscope 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 Agentscope 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.

AgentScope

Use this skill for AgentScope agent workflows, provider setup, retrieval and memory, FastAPI service deployment, or workspace/sandbox execution.

Quick start

  • Install the broad runtime set with uv pip install "agentscope[full]" or install only the extras needed for one sub-skill.
  • Target Python 3.11 or newer.
  • After install, run python scripts/check_env.py --show-backends from the skill tree to confirm imports and local backend availability.
  • Read references/repo-provenance.md when you need to check whether this skill matches the current checkout.
  • Read references/troubleshooting.md when install or import behavior is off.

Route map

sub-skills/agent-core/

Use for Agent, Toolkit, built-in tools, permissions, message/event handling, task tools, MCP tool wiring, and local skill loading.

Typical triggers:

  • "How do I build an AgentScope agent?"
  • "Why is this tool blocked or inactive?"
  • "How do local skills load into a toolkit?"

sub-skills/provider-connectors/

Use for chat, embedding, formatter, and TTS provider classes, provider credentials, and provider-specific extras or environment variables.

Typical triggers:

  • "Which extra do I need for Gemini/Ollama/XAI?"
  • "How do I configure embeddings or TTS?"
  • "Why does a provider import fail?"

sub-skills/rag-memory/

Use for KnowledgeBase, RAG middleware, vector stores, filesystem memory, mem0, ReMe, and the RAG or memory examples.

Typical triggers:

  • "How do I index documents and search them?"
  • "How do I attach RAG to an agent?"
  • "How do mem0 or ReMe memory modes work?"

sub-skills/service-platform/

Use for create_app, storage, message buses, channels, hubs, MCP, schedules, knowledge-base service, and service bootstrap/deployment.

Typical triggers:

  • "How do I start the AgentScope service?"
  • "How do I wire Redis or SQLite storage?"
  • "How do channels, hubs, or MCP fit into the service?"

sub-skills/workspace-sandboxes/

Use for local workspaces and sandboxed backends such as Docker, Bubblewrap, Apple Container, E2B, Daytona, K8s, and OpenSandbox.

Typical triggers:

  • "How do I create a workspace?"
  • "Which backend do I need for this sandbox?"
  • "Why did archive import or backend initialization fail?"

How to choose

  • If the task is about agent orchestration, start with agent-core.
  • If the task is about provider credentials or model classes, start with provider-connectors.
  • If the task is about retrieval or long-term memory, start with rag-memory.
  • If the task is about HTTP service deployment or platform routes, start with service-platform.
  • If the task is about the execution sandbox or workspace backend, start with workspace-sandboxes.

If a task spans more than one area, read the most operationally specific sub-skill first, then cross-link to the others.

Shared reference and diagnostics

  • references/repo-provenance.md — current repo snapshot and refresh baseline.
  • references/repo-routing-metadata.json — machine-readable routing metadata for repo-skill discovery.
  • references/troubleshooting.md — cross-cutting install/import and package-selection problems.
  • scripts/check_env.py — import and backend availability check for this skill tree.

Minimal import check

After installation, a quick check should succeed:

bash
python -c "import agentscope; from agentscope.agent import Agent; from agentscope.tool import Toolkit"

If that import fails, fix the environment before using any sub-skill.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Agentscope AI skill do?

AgentScope repo skill for building agents, provider connectors, RAG and memory workflows, service deployments, and local or sandboxed workspaces.

Why use Agentscope on TypingMind?

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

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/VectorSpaceLab/AREX-Skill/tree/main/skills/repositories/repo-skills/agentscope. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Agentscope?

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 Agentscope?

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

Is the Agentscope AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by VectorSpaceLab 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.
