Agent skill
Install the Linkdash skill so Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex can create links, upload files, call the HTTP API, and connect MCP.
The skill is the same SKILL.md agents fetch from the site and from npm.
npx skills add https://linkdash.dev/skills/linkdash/SKILL.md
Canonical file: linkdash-skill on npm. Website copy: https://linkdash.dev/skills/linkdash/SKILL.md.
After the skill is installed, the agent still needs the CLI (or an API key) to do any work. Install linkdash-cli; the command is linkdash. See Quickstart.
What the skill covers
- Create URL, file, and text links
- Update, pause, list, and delete
- Stats, CSV import/export
- Custom domains
- Account HTTPS webhooks
- HTTP API at
https://api.linkdash.dev/v1 - MCP at
https://api.linkdash.dev/mcp
Agent rules (do not skip)
- Parse CLI stdout as JSON. Do not pass
--json. - Never invent flags, endpoints, or tokens.
- Never confirm deletes unless the user asked for a confirmation step.
- Never echo secrets (
--password, tokens, API keys, webhook secrets). - If a command fails, read stderr or JSON
errorand fix flags. - Writes count toward the monthly event quota. Reads do not.
The CLI cannot change email, password, or billing. Send the user to Billing or Settings. API keys (HTTP and MCP): API keys.
