expo/skills

A collection of AI agent skills for working with Expo projects and Expo Application Services

What it solves

AI coding agents often lack specific, up-to-date knowledge about the Expo ecosystem, leading to mistakes in project structure, API usage, or deployment workflows. This project provides a set of "skills"—focused knowledge modules—that teach agents how to correctly build, deploy, upgrade, and debug Expo apps using official guidance.

How it works

These skills act as specialized knowledge layers that guide AI agents on when to use specific Expo APIs and how to handle constraints across React Native, iOS, and Android. They are delivered as SKILL.md files or plugins that agents can discover and reference. While the Expo documentation and CLIs remain the primary source of truth, these skills help agents apply that information accurately to a user's specific codebase.

Who it’s for

Developers using AI coding agents (such as Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, or Gemini) to build mobile applications with the Expo framework and EAS (Expo Application Services).

Highlights

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Includes skills for project structure, Expo Router, animations, native UI, data fetching, and native module development.
  • EAS Integration: Specialized skills for paid services including app store submission, OTA updates, hosting, and remote simulators.
  • Broad Agent Support: Compatible with a wide range of AI tools via a dedicated skills CLI or official plugin marketplaces.
  • MCP Server Support: Integrates with an Expo MCP server to allow agents to perform live actions like triggering EAS builds or reading documentation on demand.
  • Upgrade Assistance: Dedicated skills to help agents manage Expo SDK upgrades and resolve dependency conflicts.
