What skills are
Agent Skills are packaged instructions and scripts that an AI coding agent loads when a task calls for them. The Arize AX self-hosted skills give your agent the steps and guarded commands for installing and operating a self-hosted cluster. The agent confirms with you before it changes anything in your cluster. They follow the open Agent Skills format, so they work with Claude Code and other agents that support it, including Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf.These skills are for operating a self-hosted install. For skills that run Arize AX workflows such as tracing, datasets, and experiments, see Arize Skills.
