UiPath Agent Skills

Note

Work in Progress — This repository is under active development. Skills are being added and refined. Contributions, feedback, and ideas are welcome! See Contributing below.

UiPath Agent Skills give AI coding agents the domain knowledge to build, run, test, and deploy UiPath automations and agents — directly from your development environment. Each skill is a self-contained package of instructions and resources that teaches your coding agent how to perform a specific UiPath task.

Quick Start

Prerequisite: Node.js (LTS) is required — it includes npm.

npm -g install @uipath/cli
uip skills install

Select the skills you need from the wizard. Skills are installed into your coding agent's directory and ready to use.

Don't have Node.js installed?

macOS

brew install node

Windows

winget install OpenJS.NodeJS.LTS

Linux

curl -fsSL https://fnm.vercel.app/install | bash
fnm install --lts

See Installing Node.js via package manager for other methods.

After installing, verify with node -v and then run the quick start command above.

Skill Catalog

The repository contains skills for building and managing UiPath automation projects — coded workflows in C#, RPA workflows in XAML, Flow projects in JSON, desktop/browser UI automation, and platform operations.

Skill Description
uipath-rpa Full assistant for UiPath automations — coded workflows (C#) and low-code RPA workflows (XAML). Create, edit, build, run, and debug automation projects
uipath-maestro-flow Create, validate, and debug UiPath Flow projects using the .flow JSON format and uip CLI
uipath-platform Authentication, Orchestrator management, solution lifecycle, Integration Service, and CLI tools
uipath-agents End-to-end toolkit for UiPath coded agents: scaffold, build, run, evaluate, deploy (LangGraph, LlamaIndex, OpenAI Agents, Simple Function)
uipath-coded-apps Build, sync, package, publish, and deploy UiPath Coded Web Applications — push/pull to Studio Web, pack into .nupkg, publish to Orchestrator, deploy to production
uipath-interact Desktop and browser UI interaction and testing — click, type, read, verify, screenshot, and extract UI elements

Agents

Agent Description
Project Discovery (uipath-project-discovery-agent) Auto-discovers UiPath project structure, dependencies, conventions, and generates context files for Claude Code (.claude/rules/project-context.md) and UiPath Autopilot (AGENTS.md). Triggered automatically when a UiPath project is detected without existing context, or on explicit user request.

Multi-Tool Support

This repository works with Claude Code, Google Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex CLI, and Cursor IDE.

Claude Code

This repository works as a Claude Code plugin. Install skills via uip skills install (the recommended method above) — this keeps skills updated automatically.

Avoid manual plugin installation (e.g., claude plugin marketplace add / claude plugin install). Manually installed plugins must be updated manually, and you may miss skill updates and fixes.

If you've already installed manually, uninstall and re-install via uip skills install to switch to automatic updates.

Reduce permission prompts

By default, Claude Code prompts for approval on every uip command, and a realistic Flow or RPA build runs 25+ distinct subcommands. Claude Code plugins cannot ship permission allowlists declaratively, so run this once to install a curated allowlist of safe read-only commands (registry lookups, validation, local scaffolding) while keeping prompts for side-effectful operations (login, debug, publish):

/uipath:install-permissions

The command prints the recommended JSON and offers to merge it into your settings (~/.claude/settings.json for global, or project-local .claude/settings.local.json). You will also see a one-line nudge at session start until an allowlist is installed.

Google Gemini CLI

Gemini CLI is supported by uip skills install — pick Gemini CLI when the wizard prompts for a target and skills are wired up automatically.

OpenAI Codex CLI

This repository is configured as a Codex CLI skill provider. The AGENTS.md file (symlinked to CLAUDE.md) provides project instructions, and skills are discovered via .agents/skills/ (symlinked to skills/).

Windows users: This repo uses git symlinks. Clone with symlinks enabled:

git clone -c core.symlinks=true https://github.com/UiPath/skills

If you've already cloned without symlink support, re-enable and re-checkout:

git config core.symlinks true
git checkout -- .

Cursor IDE

Project rules are provided in .cursor/rules/ and are automatically loaded by Cursor.
