What Api Doc Generator is

Api Doc Generator is a skill published in the JackyST0/awesome-agent-skills repository on GitHub, which has about 643 stars. The repository describes itself as: “🤖 精选的 AI Agent Skills 列表,适用于 Cursor、Claude Code、GitHub Copilot 等 AI 编程工具”

A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file: frontmatter with a name and a description, followed by instructions Claude follows. Claude loads a skill automatically when a task matches its description, and you can also run it directly with a slash and its name.

Skills work in Claude Code and in Claude Cowork, which makes Api Doc Generator a portable way to give Claude the same method everywhere.

How to install Api Doc Generator

Claude Code

  1. Download the api-doc-generator folder from the repository.
  2. Save it as ~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md for all projects, or .claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md for one project.
  3. Claude loads it automatically when a task matches; you can also run it with / and its name.

Claude Cowork

  1. Zip the skill folder so SKILL.md sits at the top level of the folder.
  2. Open Customize → Skills, click +, then upload the ZIP.
  3. Start a task that matches the description, or call it by name with /.

What Are Agent Skills

Agent Skills are instruction sets, scripts, and resources that AI agents can discover and use to perform specific tasks. Each skill contains a SKILL.md file that tells the AI how to use it.

Skills work across multiple platforms:

Before you install

  • Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
  • Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
  • Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
  • Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
  • Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
