Devic API skills

These are reusable knowledge packages that teach an AI coding assistant — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex — how the Devic API works. Installed into your own project, they give it detailed documentation and usage patterns so it can write integrations against Devic correctly.
Not to be confused with Skills, the platform feature: instructions you write in Knowledge and attach to your own agents and assistants. Those are used by Devic agents. The ones on this page are used by your coding assistant, to build against Devic. Same word, opposite direction.

Installation

Install Devic skills using the skills CLI:
This command installs the complete Devic API skill package into your project, making it available to Claude Code and other compatible AI assistants.

What’s Included

The devicai/skills package includes comprehensive documentation for:

Agents API

Create, manage, and run autonomous AI agents with tool access and execution control.

Assistants API

Build conversational AI experiences with message processing and chat history.

Tool Servers API

Configure external tool integrations that agents and assistants can use.

How Skills Work

When you install a skill, it adds markdown documentation files to your project’s .claude/skills/ directory. These files are automatically loaded by compatible AI assistants, giving them context about the APIs and best practices.

Quick Start

1. Install the skill

2. Get your API key

Generate an API key from the Devic dashboard. Keys follow the pattern:

3. Set up authentication

Include your API key in all requests:

4. Start building

Your AI assistant now understands the Devic API. Try asking it to:
  • Create an agent with specific tools
  • Set up a tool server for your external API
  • Send messages to an assistant
  • Monitor agent execution threads
