Pixeltable Skill

Agent Skill that teaches AI coding assistants to write Pixeltable application files: TableModel in app.py, then pxt schema update, then pxt service update.

Install

Skill (recommended for most assistants)

Install the portable skill with npx skills:

npx skills add pixeltable/pixeltable-skill

This installs SKILL.md and its references for supported coding assistants,
including Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, and the Codex IDE extension.

Google Antigravity is not one of them: it reads
~/.gemini/antigravity/skills, which npx skills does not write to. Install
there with ./install.sh --platform antigravity.

Full plugin

Install the skill with its client-supported commands, agents, and hooks using
npx plugins:

npx plugins add pixeltable/pixeltable-skill

Client-native marketplace options:

• Claude Code: /plugin marketplace add pixeltable/pixeltable-skill, then
  /plugin install pixeltable@pixeltable-skill
• ChatGPT desktop and Codex:
  codex plugin marketplace add pixeltable/pixeltable-skill --ref main, then
  codex plugin add pixeltable@pixeltable-skill. Use /plugins in Codex or the
  Plugins page in ChatGPT desktop.

Restart or start a new conversation after installing. Repository marketplaces
are team-distribution sources; they do not publish to a public directory.

Any LLM (paste URL into context)

• llms-full.txt
