If you're building Pydantic AI applications with a coding agent, you can install the Pydantic AI skill from the pydantic/skills repository to give your agent up-to-date framework knowledge.
Agent skills are packages of instructions and reference material that coding agents load on demand. With the skill installed, coding agents have access to Pydantic AI patterns, architecture guidance, and common task references covering tools, capabilities, structured output, streaming, testing, multi-agent delegation, hooks, and agent specs.
!!! note If you want to build agent skills for your Pydantic AI agent, see the Agent Skills entry in the Third-party capabilities section on the Capabilities page.
Add the Pydantic marketplace and install the plugin:
claude plugin marketplace add pydantic/skills
claude plugin install ai@pydantic-skills
Install the Pydantic AI skill using the skills CLI:
npx skills add pydantic/skills
This works with 30+ agents via the agentskills.io standard, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Gemini CLI.
