| name | agent-starter-kit |
| description | One-command setup for a new AI coding agent. Installs the essential starter skills (find-skills, agent-browser, karpathy-guidelines, ui-ux-pro-max, caveman, arabic-design) across 70+ agents, plus the core Claude Code plugins/MCPs (frontend-design, superpowers, code-review, playwright, github, claude-md-management). Use when the user is setting up a new project or a fresh agent and asks for "the skills/MCPs I should start with", a "starter pack", or "set up my agent". |
Agent Starter Kit
The skills, plugins, and MCP servers worth installing the moment you open a new
agent — bundled into one install. Instead of hunting them down one by one, run the
installer and the agent starts with real capabilities: it can find and install more
skills on demand, drive a browser, reason with guardrails, design clean UI (Arabic
included), review its own code, and automate the browser + GitHub.
What it installs
Tier 1 — Skills (work on 70+ agents via npx skills: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, …):
| Skill | What it gives the agent |
|---|
find-skills | Discovers and installs any other skill on demand — the meta-skill |
agent-browser | A real browser the agent controls itself (open, click, fill, verify) |
karpathy-guidelines | Behavior rules: no silent assumptions, minimal solutions, verify before acting |
ui-ux-pro-max | Design-system intelligence — styles, color palettes, font pairings |
caveman | Blunt, no-fluff answers when you want signal over politeness |
arabic-design | Clean Arabic in AI-generated designs (fixes the letter-spacing/RTL traps) |
Tier 2 — Plugins / MCPs (Claude Code only):
| Plugin / MCP | What it gives Claude Code |
|---|
frontend-design | Anthropic's design guidance for polished, non-generic UI |
superpowers | TDD + subagent orchestration workflow (brainstorm → design → build → review) |
code-review | /code-review on any branch/PR — scored, actionable review |
playwright (MCP) | Browser automation & end-to-end testing |
github (MCP) | Read/manage GitHub repos, PRs, and issues from the agent |
claude-md-management | Keeps your CLAUDE.md files organized and current |
How to run it
From the skill directory:
bash install.sh
bash install.sh --agent cursor
bash install.sh --agent codex
bash install.sh --agent '*'
bash install.sh --skills-only
The script is best-effort and safe to re-run: each item installs independently, and
anything it can't install automatically prints the exact manual command to finish it.
When invoked as a skill
If an agent loads this skill to set up an environment: run install.sh with the right
--agent for the current agent. Then confirm what installed and surface any manual
fallback lines the script printed. In Claude Code, remind the user to restart (or run
/plugin) so the new plugins load.
Honest scope note
- Tier 1 skills are genuinely cross-agent —
npx skills targets 70+ agents.
- Tier 2 is Claude Code only. Codex/Cursor have no "plugin" equivalent. Their two
MCP items (
playwright, github) can still be added to Codex/Cursor through that
agent's own MCP config — the script says so when you pass a non-Claude --agent.
