# Mage skills for Claude, Codex, and Cursor

> Free, open-source Agent Skills that teach Claude, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other agents complete creative jobs with Mage: product photoshoots, marketplace listings, ad variations, UGC and faceless videos, and YouTube thumbnails.

Mage skills are [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io): folders of instructions an AI agent loads when a request matches them. Each one teaches the agent a complete job, such as a product photoshoot or an ad resize, and runs it on Mage's image, video, and audio models through the [MCP server](/api/mcp). Every generation is paid in Gems from your account, and every skill quotes the price before it runs anything big.

<Note>
  The skills are in beta at `0.x`, so their workflows may still change.
</Note>

## Install

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect Mage">
    Add the Mage connector to your agent and sign in, as in [Use Mage from Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, and Cursor](/api/mcp). In Claude Code:

    ```bash theme={null}
    claude mcp add --transport http mage https://mcp.mage.space/mcp
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the skills">
    One command adds every skill to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other agents that load `SKILL.md` skills:

    ```bash theme={null}
    npx skills add mage-space/skills
    ```

    In Claude Code you can install them as a plugin instead, with `/plugin marketplace add mage-space/skills` and then `/plugin install mage@mage`. In Claude, upload a zipped skill folder under **Customize → Skills**; skills there need code execution turned on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Ask for the job">
    Describe what you want, for example "Shoot three lifestyle photos of my product", or call a skill by name, such as `/mage-product-photoshoot`.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Skills

| Skill | Command | What it does |
| - | - | - |
| [Generate](https://www.mage.space/skills/generate) | `/mage-generate` | Images, video, and audio on the right model, priced before it runs. |
| [Consistent Characters](https://www.mage.space/skills/characters) | `/mage-characters` | Saves a character from one portrait, with a voice if you want one, and keeps it consistent with `@handle`. |

| [Marketplace Listing Images](https://www.mage.space/skills/marketplace-cards) | `/mage-marketplace-cards` | A white-background main image, secondary images, and A+ modules. |
| [Ad Multiplier](https://www.mage.space/skills/ad-multiplier) | `/mage-ad-multiplier` | Test variants of an ad: talent, wardrobe, setting, or headline, everything else locked. |
| [Ad Resizer](https://www.mage.space/skills/ad-resizer) | `/mage-ad-resizer` | Recomposes a static ad for feed, Stories, Reels, and banners. |
| [Ad Localizer](https://www.mage.space/skills/ad-localizer) | `/mage-ad-localizer` | Translates the text in a static ad and keeps the layout. |
| [UGC Video](https://www.mage.space/skills/ugc-video) | `/mage-ugc-video` | Creator-style product videos with a scripted hook and spoken lines. |

| [YouTube Thumbnail](https://www.mage.space/skills/youtube-thumbnail) | `/mage-youtube-thumbnail` | Truthful thumbnails with faces kept exact, variants, and headline edits. |

Each skill's page shows a real run: the conversation, the Gems it cost, and the results.

## How they work

A skill never calls Mage directly. It tells the agent which [MCP tools](/api/mcp#what-your-assistant-can-do) to use and how: pick a model with `list_models` and `get_model`, price the work with `estimate_cost`, start it with `generate`, and wait with `get_request`. Pricing, moderation, billing, and limits are the same as everywhere else in Mage.

* **You approve the spend.** Skills quote the total in Gems before a batch or a video and wait for a yes.
* **Files are links.** Skills take https links to images and video. Agents that run commands upload local files with `create_upload`; a file attached to a chat never reaches Mage.
* **Output is truthful.** Skills don't invent product facts, results, reviews, or quotes, and the faceless video skill researches real topics.
* **Results last 30 days.** Download what you want to keep, or save it in Mage.

## Update

Run `npx skills add mage-space/skills` again, or `/plugin update mage@mage` in Claude Code.
