Buildkite Skills

The official Buildkite skills for Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI coding agents. Install them into your agent of choice so it can generate correct pipeline YAML, run bk and buildkite-agent CLI commands, call the API, configure agents, and run preflight builds.

Installation

bash
npx skills add buildkite/skills

See skills.sh for supported agents and options.

Claude Code

Add the marketplace and install the plugin:

text
/plugin marketplace add buildkite/skills
/plugin install buildkite@buildkite-skills

Cursor

Search for Buildkite Skills in the Cursor Marketplace, or run /add-plugin and search for "Buildkite".

Kiro

Recommended (one install): add the Buildkite power in the Powers panel, pointing at github.com/buildkite/skills. The root POWER.md, mcp.json, and steering/ together give Kiro the Buildkite MCP server plus all seven workflows (pipelines, migration, preflight, agent-runtime, cache, CLI, API), loaded automatically when relevant.

Alternatively, install individual workflows as Kiro skills via the Skills panel — each skills/buildkite-*/ directory already conforms to the open Agent Skills standard.
