Add agents skills to the create-expo-app command

Yoav Gal

We already have good skills, and most apps are developed with the assistance of coding agents.

I feel like it's a DX no-brainer XD.

hello! new projects include AGENT.md and CLAUDE.md and a .claude directory that adds the plugin. what would you like us to add on top of this?

Brent Vatne

oh also - how did you create the project? can you share the exact command / tool version? thank you!!

Hey Brent Vatne
I saw the AGENTS.md work in #44618, and that’s what gave me the idea to explore adding skills too: https://expo.dev/expo-skills / https://github.com/expo/skills
I used npx create-expo-app@latest
 and played with the idea of chaining something like bunx skills add expo/skills
 at the end of the create-expo-app flow.
I realize this needs a discussion around defaults and whether Expo wants to be an early adopter here. It’s not supported by many other create-app flows yet, but I’m pretty convinced this is the general direction and that a lot more frameworks will add something like this over the next few months.
Here’s the code I tried: https://github.com/expo/expo/pull/46473
