Axiom Skills are instruction files that give AI coding agents specialized capabilities. Unlike Axiom MCP Server, which provides a standardized protocol for tool discovery and execution, Axiom Skills work by embedding methodology and context directly into the agent’s prompt. For guidance on when to use Axiom Skills and Axiom MCP Server, see AI agents.
Axiom Skills are open-source and welcome your contributions. For more information, see the GitHub repository.
