Agent skill

get-api-docs

Use this skill when you need documentation for a third-party library, SDK, or API before writing code that uses it — for example, "use the OpenAI API", "call the Stripe API", "use the Anthropic SDK", "query Pinecone", or any time the user asks you to write code against an external service and you need current API reference. Fetch the docs with chub before answering, rather than relying on training knowledge.

Get API Docs via chub

When you need documentation for a library or API, fetch it with the chub CLI rather than guessing from training data. This gives you the current, correct API.

Step 1 — Find the right doc ID

bash
chub search "<library name>" --json

Pick the best-matching id from the results (e.g. openai/chat, anthropic/sdk, stripe/api). If nothing matches, try a broader term.

Step 2 — Fetch the docs

bash
chub get <id> --lang py    # or --lang js, --lang ts

Omit --lang if the doc has only one language variant — it will be auto-selected.

Step 3 — Use the docs

Read the fetched content and use it to write accurate code or answer the question. Do not rely on memorized API shapes — use what the docs say.

Step 4 — Annotate what you learned

After completing the task, if you discovered something not in the doc — a gotcha, workaround, version quirk, or project-specific detail — save it so future sessions start smarter:

bash
chub annotate <id> "Webhook verification requires raw body — do not parse before verifying"

Annotations are local, persist across sessions, and appear automatically on future chub get calls. Keep notes concise and actionable. Don't repeat what's already in the doc.

Step 5 — Give feedback

Always rate the doc after using it. This helps authors fix outdated or incorrect docs and prioritize improvements. Include a label and a brief comment explaining what was good or what needs fixing — specific feedback is the most valuable.

bash
chub feedback <id> up --label accurate "Clear examples, models are current"
chub feedback <id> down --label outdated "Lists gpt-4o as latest but gpt-5.4 is out"

Available labels: outdated, inaccurate, incomplete, wrong-examples, wrong-version, poorly-structured, accurate, well-structured, helpful, good-examples.

If you notice the doc has wrong model names, deprecated APIs, missing features, or incorrect code patterns, always leave a downvote with details so it can be fixed.

Quick reference

Goal Command
List everything chub search
Find a doc chub search "stripe"
Exact id detail chub search stripe/api
Fetch Python docs chub get stripe/api --lang py
Fetch JS docs chub get openai/chat --lang js
Save to file chub get anthropic/sdk --lang py -o docs.md
Fetch multiple chub get openai/chat stripe/api --lang py
Save a note chub annotate stripe/api "needs raw body"
List notes chub annotate --list
Rate a doc chub feedback stripe/api up

Notes

  • chub search with no query lists everything available
  • IDs are <author>/<name> — confirm the ID from search before fetching
  • If multiple languages exist and you don't pass --lang, chub will tell you which are available

opensrc

Fetch dependency source code to give AI agents deeper implementation context. Use when the agent needs to understand how a library works internally, read source code for a package, fetch implementation details for a dependency, or explore how an npm/PyPI/crates.io package is built. Triggers include "fetch source for", "read the source of", "how does X work internally", "get the implementation of", "opensrc path", or any task requiring access to dependency source code beyond types and docs.

dogfood

Systematically explore and test a web application to find bugs, UX issues, and other problems. Use when asked to "dogfood", "QA", "exploratory test", "find issues", "bug hunt", "test this app/site/platform", or review the quality of a web application. Produces a structured report with full reproduction evidence -- step-by-step screenshots, repro videos, and detailed repro steps for every issue -- so findings can be handed directly to the responsible teams.

minimax-pdf

Use this skill when visual quality and design identity matter for a PDF. CREATE (generate from scratch): "make a PDF", "generate a report", "write a proposal", "create a resume", "beautiful PDF", "professional document", "cover page", "polished PDF", "client-ready document". FILL (complete form fields): "fill in the form", "fill out this PDF", "complete the form fields", "write values into PDF", "what fields does this PDF have". REFORMAT (apply design to an existing doc): "reformat this document", "apply our style", "convert this Markdown/text to PDF", "make this doc look good", "re-style this PDF". This skill uses a token-based design system: color, typography, and spacing are derived from the document type and flow through every page. The output is print-ready. Prefer this skill when appearance matters, not just when any PDF output is needed.
