Build with a coding agent
Point Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any coding agent at one file and it can build against the Skylit API and MCP server.
Skylit publishes a single, agent-ready guide: every endpoint, parameter, limit and error rule in one Markdown file, generated from the same OpenAPI specs as this reference. Give it to your coding agent and ask for what you want.

| Skills index | https://www.skylit.ai/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json |
| Docs index | https://www.skylit.ai/docs/llms.txt (append .md to any page URL for Markdown) |
| OpenAPI | openapi.yaml · flowseeker-openapi.yaml · atlas-openapi.yaml |
Install it as a skill
Agents that support skills can install the guide straight from the docs site:
Terminal
npx skills add https://www.skylit.aiOr paste this prompt
Works with any agent that can read a URL. Set SKYLIT_API_KEY in your
environment first (create a key on the
Developer page).
Text
Read https://www.skylit.ai/.well-known/agent-skills/skylit-api/skill.md and follow it exactly.
Use my key from the SKYLIT_API_KEY environment variable with the header
"Authorization: Bearer <key>". Then build: <describe what you want, e.g.
"a Python script that streams SPY dealer positioning and prints the king node
every time it changes">.Or connect the MCP server
If your agent should query Skylit while it works rather than write code against it, connect the MCP server instead:
Terminal
claude mcp add --transport http skylit https://mcp.skylit.ai/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $SKYLIT_API_KEY"Other clients are covered in the MCP quickstart.
