Skills are useful when you want your agent to automatically use curl.md when fetching URLs and follow best practices.

#Quick Start

Install the curl.md skills and CLI, and start curling.

1. 1

   Install skills

   $npx skills add https://curl.md --yes

2. 2

   Install CLI

   Optionally, install the CLI (agents love using it).

   curlnpmbun

   $curl -fsSL https://curl.md/install.sh | bash

   If the CLI is not installed, the skills fallback to using curl, e.g. curl curl.md/<url>.

3. 3

   Start curling

   Start your favorite agent and try this out:

   Read the curl.md skills docs and summarize how it works.
   https://curl.md/docs/skills

   Your agent should automatically use curl.md to turn URLs you paste, or URLs it decides to fetch on its own, into markdown.

#Install

Install the official curl.md skills with:

$npx skills add https://curl.md --yes

Hosted skills are available at https://curl.md/.well-known/skills/index.json.

#Usage

Once the curl.md skills are installed, there’s nothing more to do. Your coding agent should automatically use curl.md to turn URLs you paste, or URLs it decides to fetch on its own, into markdown.
