description: Install Better Auth agent skills so your coding assistant follows library conventions and patterns.
---

[Agent skills](https://agentskills.io) are portable instruction files (for example `SKILL.md`) that teach your coding agent project conventions, safe patterns, and where to look in the docs. The **Better Auth** skill pack lives in the [`better-auth/skills`](https://github.com/better-auth/skills) repository.

Install it with the [`skills` CLI](https://www.npmjs.com/package/skills) (uses `npx` so nothing global is required):

```bash title="terminal"
npx skills add better-auth/skills
```

Your editor or agent loads skills from its configured skills directory (often project-level). After installing, restart the agent or reload skills if your tool requires it.
