AgentKit Skill Download

This skill downloads skills from a specified AgentKit skill space to a local directory. It handles downloading the skill package from TOS and extracting it.

Usage

To download skills, run the following command:

python3 scripts/skills_download.py <download_path> [--skills <skill_name1> <skill_name2> ...]

Arguments

  • <download_path>: The local directory path where the skills will be saved.
  • --skills: (Optional) A space-separated list of specific skill names to download. If omitted, all skills in the space will be downloaded.

Requirements

  • veadk python package installed.
  • Environment variables:
    • VOLCENGINE_ACCESS_KEY
    • VOLCENGINE_SECRET_KEY
    • SKILL_SPACE_ID (required, comma-separated list of skill space IDs)
    • AGENTKIT_TOOL_REGION (optional, defaults to cn-beijing)

Example

Download all skills to ./my-skills:

python3 scripts/skills_download.py ./my-skills

Download only skill-a and skill-b:

python3 scripts/skills_download.py ./my-skills --skills skill-a skill-b

Error Handling

  • IF the script raises the error VOLCENGINE_ACCESS_KEY and VOLCENGINE_SECRET_KEY are not set in environment variables., inform the user that they need to provide the VOLCENGINE_ACCESS_KEY and VOLCENGINE_SECRET_KEY environment variable. Write it to the environment variable file in the workspace. If the file already exists, append it to the end. Ensure the environment variable format is correct, make the environment variable effective, and retry the task that just failed.
  • IF the script raises the error SKILL_SPACE_ID environment variable is not set, inform the user that they need to provide the SKILL_SPACE_ID environment variable. Write it to the environment variable file in the workspace. If the file already exists, append it to the end. Ensure the environment variable format is correct, make the environment variable effective

How to use this skill

1

Install skills-download by running npx skills add bytedance/agentkit-samples --skill skills-download in your project directory. Run the install command above in your project directory. The skill file will be downloaded from GitHub and placed in your project.

2

No configuration needed. Your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) automatically detects installed skills and uses them as context when generating code.

3

The skill enhances your agent's understanding of skills-download, helping it follow established patterns, avoid common mistakes, and produce production-ready output.

What you get

Skills are plain-text instruction files — not executable code. They encode expert knowledge about frameworks, languages, or tools that your AI agent reads to improve its output. This means zero runtime overhead, no dependency conflicts, and full transparency: you can read and review every instruction before installing.

Compatibility

This skill works with any AI coding agent that supports the skills.sh format, including Claude Code (Anthropic), Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Aider, and other tools that read project-level context files. Skills are framework-agnostic at the transport level — the content inside determines which language or framework it applies to.

Data sourced from the skills.sh registry and GitHub. Install counts and security audits are updated regularly.
