# Agent Skills

Oxylabs Agent Skills (`skills.md`) teach LLMs and AI coding assistants how to configure and interact with Oxylabs products.

### Other agents (generic)

For other agents and custom environments, load the repository into your project workspace via the standard skills CLI:

```
npx skills add https://github.com/oxylabs/agent-skills.git
```

## Configuration

All Oxylabs Agent Skills authenticate via environment variables defined in a `.env` file. To use Web Unblocker skills, add these keys to your `.env` file:

| Variable           | Description                         |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
| `OXYLABS_USERNAME` | Your Web Unblocker user `username`. |
| `OXYLABS_PASSWORD` | Your Web Unblocker user `password`. |

## How to use

Once the skill is active in your workspace, you can prompt your AI assistant to build more reliable extraction scripts using Oxylabs Web Unblocker.

* **Example 1:** "Write a Python script using `requests` to scrape `target-url.net` page through Web Unblocker, handle proxy SSL verification."
* **Example 2:** "Create a Node.js script using `node-fetch` that requests a page through Web Unblocker with JavaScript rendering enabled and pinned to a specific US location header."
* **Example 3:** "Write an automated script to retrieve a full-page PNG screenshot of `example.com` via Web Unblocker custom headers."

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developers.oxylabs.io/products/web-unblocker/agent-skills.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
