Today, we're launching two agent skills for Liveblocks and Yjs, enabling AI coding assistants to follow best practices more consistently.

Agent skills

Agent Skills are folders of instructions, scripts, and resources that agents can use to generate more accurate responses—they often consist of short markdown files filled with domain-specific knowledge.

We’ve created two different agent skills for Liveblocks and Yjs, designed to help AI coding assistants follow best practices more consistently. Once installed, skills are automatically triggered by agents when they feel they’re relevant.

Claude Code using the liveblocks-best-practices skill

Above you can see an agent loading a skill and recommending the perfect answer to the question. The agent’s response is significantly more concise and precise with the skill installed. Learn more in our agent skills documentation.

Liveblocks best practices

The liveblocks-best-practices skill is comprehensive, featuring 40+ reference files related to every part of Liveblocks. Each reference details how to solve a difficult or obscure problem, for example:

  • How do I handle Wi-Fi connections dropping?
  • How do I add a custom avatar component into <Thread />?
  • How do I solve a z-index issue with dropdowns in Comments?

Yjs best practices

The yjs-best-practices skill is based on our Yjs best practices and tips guide, and details how to avoid common pitfalls when working with Yjs, such as:

  • How to get better performance with V2 encoding.
  • When to use subdocuments, and better alternatives to using them.
  • Why Y.Map is inefficient for key-value data and how to solve it.

Install

Install our new skills into Cursor, Claude Code, and more, with the skills.sh CLI.
