Remote Agent Skills

The remote-for-ai plugin gives your AI coding assistant a set of task-specific skills for Remote. You install the plugin once, and each skill loads on its own when what you ask matches its job. There's nothing to invoke by hand. The plugin works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Gemini CLI.

Not installed yet? Follow the Build Integrations Quick Start, then come back here.

The skills fall into two groups, matching the two ways to work with Remote through AI.

Operate your workspace

These skills act through the Remote MCP connection the plugin sets up. Ask in plain language and your assistant reads or updates your live Remote data. See Remote MCP for how that connection works.

SkillLoads when you ask something like
remote-payroll-and-payslips"Show me the payroll breakdown for last month's run."
remote-reporting"Export a headcount report as CSV."
remote-time-off-workflow"Book 3 days of PTO from April 14 to 16." or "Approve the pending time-off requests."

Build integrations

These skills help you write code that calls the Remote REST API. That code authenticates with its own credentials, not your editor sign-in. See Build Integrations with AI for the two ways to connect a coding agent.

SkillLoads when you ask something like
remote-api-auth"Set up authentication so my service can call the Remote API in sandbox."
remote-api-integration"Which endpoint lists a company's employments, and how do I page it?"
remote-api-forms"Build a valid request body for the Portugal contract-amendment form."
remote-api-onboarding"Walk me through onboarding an EOR employee in Germany via the API."
remote-api-webhooks"Verify the X-Remote-Signature on an incoming Remote webhook."

Two credentials, one plugin

The operate skills use the browser-based MCP sign-in that authenticates you in the editor. The build skills produce code that uses your integration's own API token or OAuth app. The Build Integrations Quick Start explains both.
