Install the StoreConnect AI skills

The StoreConnect AI skills teach an AI assistant how StoreConnect actually works: themes and Liquid templates, forms, the Salesforce object model, deployment order, and point of sale. With the skills installed, your assistant follows real platform conventions instead of a plausible-sounding guess.

Everything installs from the public GetStoreConnect/ai repository. It is free and open, and it contains no store addresses, no passwords, and no customer data. Installing the skills connects nothing and changes nothing in your store. It is closer to handing someone the manual than handing them the keys.

:::note Skills are knowledge, not access. A live connection that lets an assistant read and change one specific store uses MCP: see Connect an AI agent to your store. The skills are fully useful without a connection. :::

Before you begin

• You need an AI product that supports skills or plugins. The packages below cover Claude, Codex and ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Google Antigravity, Gemini, Kiro, and Grok.
• Command line installs need a terminal with npx or the product’s own CLI available.
• You do not need StoreConnect credentials, Salesforce access, or a store URL. Nothing here signs in to anything.

Install with the open skills format

For any tool that supports the open skills format, run this in your project:

```bash

npx skills add GetStoreConnect/ai ```

Install the package for your AI product

Some products have their own package with a bit more in it, such as specialist agents and ready-made commands. Pick yours.

Claude Code

```bash

claude plugin marketplace add GetStoreConnect/ai –sparse .claude-plugin providers/claude/storeconnect claude plugin install storeconnect@storeconnect-ai ```

Claude web, desktop, and mobile

Add the plugin from your settings:

1. In Claude, open Settings, then Plugins.
2. Choose Add marketplace and enter GetStoreConnect/ai.
3. Install StoreConnect from the new marketplace entry.

Organization owners can add the marketplace once for everyone from the organization’s plugin settings.

Codex and ChatGPT

```bash

codex plugin marketplace add GetStoreConnect/ai –ref main codex plugin add storeconnect@storeconnect-ai ```

GitHub Copilot CLI

```bash

copilot plugin marketplace add GetStoreConnect/ai copilot plugin install storeconnect@storeconnect-ai ```

Cursor

Cursor uses the package at providers/cursor/storeconnect in the repository. Install it through Cursor’s plugin support, or use the open skills format above.

Google Antigravity

```bash

agy plugin install ./providers/antigravity/storeconnect ```

You can also install the skills at workspace scope with the open skills format.

Gemini CLI

Install the provider directory from a checkout of the repository:

```bash

git clone –depth 1 https://github.com/GetStoreConnect/ai.git storeconnect-ai gemini extensions install ./storeconnect-ai/providers/gemini/storeconnect ```

Kiro

```bash

npx skills add GetStoreConnect/ai –agent kiro-cli –skill ‘*’ –copy ```

Grok Build

Install StoreConnect from the xAI plugin marketplace.

What the skills teach

Skill	What it helps with
storeconnect-platform	How StoreConnect fits together, and which skill to reach for
storeconnect-liquid	Liquid, the template language behind your storefront pages
storeconnect-theme-development	Theme structure, layouts, styling, and assets
storeconnect-theme-review	A read-only health check: accessibility, SEO, speed, content gaps
storeconnect-forms	Storefront forms, their fields, and validation
storeconnect-components	Live-updating parts of a page, such as cart drawers and filters
storeconnect-controllers	Server-side logic while a page renders: redirects, access rules, custom form handling
storeconnect-debug-performance	Working out why a page is slow or showing the wrong thing
storeconnect-salesforce-data	The StoreConnect object model in Salesforce, and data work
storeconnect-sync-deploy	Getting changes onto a store safely, in the right order
storeconnect-apex-integration	Custom Apex for StoreConnect stores
storeconnect-pos-setup	Point of sale setup: outlets, registers, staff, payments, hardware
storeconnect-pos-customization	POS screens, buttons, receipts, and labels

Three of the packages also ship ready-made commands for the procedures that should never be improvised:

• sc-auth — connects to one store and confirms which store, which environment, and who you are signed in as
• sc-publish — walks a change through review, your explicit approval, submission, and a live check afterwards
• sc-theme-review — runs the read-only theme audit and reports ranked findings

Products without a commands feature carry the same procedures inside the skills, so nothing is lost.

Verify the installation

1. Start a new session in your AI product, so it discovers the newly installed skills.
2. Ask the assistant a StoreConnect question, for example “Which StoreConnect skills do you have available?” or “How do theme templates reach my storefront?”.
3. The assistant should name the storeconnect-* skills or answer with specifics such as s_c__Theme_Template__c records and cache versions. Generic answers about generic ecommerce mean the skills did not load.

Products with a plugin list command give you a direct check, for example claude plugin list or codex plugin list.

Update the skills

Packages installed through a product’s plugin system update automatically. Skills installed manually with the open skills format do not, so re-run the installer periodically:

```bash

npx skills update ```

:::tip The skills work entirely offline and never touch a store. If you later connect an assistant to your store over MCP, keep the skills installed: the connection provides the ability to act, and the skills provide the judgment about how to act safely. :::
