Official AI agent skills from the Expo team for building, deploying, and debugging robust Expo apps.
We primarily use Claude Code at Expo, skills are fine-tuned for Opus models. But you can use these skills with any AI agent.
Add the marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add expo/skills
Install a plugin:
/plugin install expo-app-design
/plugin install upgrading-expo
/plugin install expo-deployment
Install from GitHub
- Open Cursor Settings (Cmd+Shift+J / Ctrl+Shift+J)
- Navigate to
Rules & Command→Project Rules→ Add Rule → Remote Rule (GitHub) - Enter:
https://github.com/expo/skills.git
How it works: Skills are automatically discovered and used by the agent based on context. When you ask questions about Expo development, the agent will automatically use the relevant skills (e.g., building-ui, data-fetching, deployment) based on the skill descriptions.
Note: Skills won't appear in the / slash command menu. The / menu in Cursor is for custom commands (stored in .cursor/commands/), not for skills. Skills work via auto-discovery - the agent uses them automatically when your questions match their descriptions.
Verify installation: After adding the Remote Rule, try asking the agent Expo-related questions like:
- "How do I build a UI with Expo Router?"
- "How do I make API calls in my Expo app?"
- "How do I deploy my Expo app to the App Store?"
If the skills are working, the agent will use the relevant skill content to answer your questions.

This will extract the skills individually so you'll need to manually upgrade them.
