Installation

A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file. Pick your agent and run the commands in a terminal (macOS, Linux or Git Bash on Windows) from your project root.

Copy the prompt into Claude, Codex or another assistant: it will review the skill and install it for you.

Install the “nuxt” skill from mozgi.io (https://mozgi.io/skills/antfu-nuxt/) for me.

1. Download the archive: https://mozgi.io/skills/antfu-nuxt/download
   If it fails, take the skill folder from the source: https://github.com/antfu/skills/tree/main/skills/nuxt
2. Read SKILL.md and the other files. Check the skill is safe: no hidden commands, no sending data elsewhere, no scripts doing something other than described. If anything looks suspicious, stop and tell me.
3. Put the “nuxt” folder into your agent's skills folder: .claude/skills/ for Claude Code, .agents/skills/ for Codex, .cursor/skills/ for Cursor, .gemini/skills/ for Gemini CLI. Inside the project if we are in one, otherwise in the home folder (~/.claude/skills/ etc.).
4. Make sure <skills folder>/nuxt/SKILL.md exists.
5. Briefly tell me what this skill does and offer to try it on my task.

If you cannot do a step yourself, tell me what to click or type.

git clone --depth 1 --branch main https://github.com/antfu/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/nuxt .claude/skills/nuxt

Restart Claude Code — the skill appears in the list; call it manually with /nuxt. For all projects use ~/.claude/skills.

git clone --depth 1 --branch main https://github.com/antfu/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .agents/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/nuxt .agents/skills/nuxt

Codex looks for skills in .agents/skills from the current folder up to the repo root; call one with /skills or $nuxt. For all projects use ~/.agents/skills.

git clone --depth 1 --branch main https://github.com/antfu/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .cursor/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/nuxt .cursor/skills/nuxt

Cursor picks the skill up on start; call it with “/” in Agent chat. Cursor also reads .claude/skills and .agents/skills. For all projects use ~/.cursor/skills.

git clone --depth 1 --branch main https://github.com/antfu/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .gemini/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/skills/nuxt .gemini/skills/nuxt

Gemini CLI offers to activate the skill when a task matches — you approve it. For all projects use ~/.gemini/skills.

Nuxt is a full-stack Vue framework that provides server-side rendering, file-based routing, auto-imports, and a powerful module system. It uses Nitro as its server engine for universal deployment across Node.js, serverless, and edge platforms.

> The skill is based on Nuxt 5.x (5.0.0-0), generated at 2026-09-25.

> Directory layout: the default srcDir is app/ — Vue app code (app.vue, components/, composables/, pages/, etc.) lives under app/, while server/, shared/, public/, modules/, layers/ and nuxt.config.ts stay at the project root. The ~/@ aliases point at app/; use ~~/@@ for the root.

> Nuxt 5 note: Nuxt 5 makes many former experimental flags the default. The biggest shifts for agents: server code moves to Nitro v3 (h3 v2, Web-standard Request/Response), server utilities import from nuxt/server and are no longer auto-imported by default, $fetch/useFetch are typed from generated route types, routing is case-sensitive and typed by default, and the bundler is Vite 8 (Rolldown). Nuxt 5 requires Node 22.19/24.11+. A Nitro v2 compatibility layer (nitroLegacy) keeps older server code building during migration. See individual references for details.

Frequently asked questions

What does the nuxt skill do?

Nuxt full-stack Vue framework guidance for SSR, auto-imports, file-based routing, and server routes.

How do I install nuxt?

Open the “Installation” block on this page and pick your agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Gemini CLI — for ready-made commands that copy the skill folder to the right place. Or copy the prompt from the “Via assistant” tab and let the assistant review and install the skill.

Which AI models work with nuxt?

Skills are plain Markdown instructions (the Agent Skills format), so nuxt works with any agent that reads SKILL.md: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode and more. The model loads the instructions only when a task matches the skill's description.

Is nuxt free?

The skill is published openly by antfu under the MIT license. The skill itself costs nothing — you only pay your AI provider for the tokens you use.

Is it safe to install skills?

A skill is a set of instructions your agent will follow, so read SKILL.md and its companion files before installing. Scripts in the skill folder only run if your agent runs them — keep an eye on what it does and do not grant unnecessary permissions.

How is a skill different from an MCP server or a plugin?

An MCP server or plugin gives the model new tools — code that runs and returns a result. A skill gives it knowledge and process: how to approach a task, which steps to follow and what good output looks like. It needs no server or API key.
