# Apify agent skills for Claude Code, Cursor and RevampKey

> Ready-made Apify playbooks for AI agents: find and run the right Apify Actor, check an Apify run and get its results. Free SKILL.md files for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, or one click in RevampKey.

## Skills

- [Use the Apify connector with AI](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/apify-773fbb/skills/essentials.md): Gives an AI agent a working guide to the Apify connector: confirm the account first, choose the right search, run, status or storage tool, keep results bounded, and ask before any Actor run or abort.
- [Find and run the right Apify Actor](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/apify-773fbb/skills/actor-discovery-and-run.md): Finds a suitable Apify Store Actor for a data-collection task, checks its input schema, and proposes a bounded run. It asks for your approval before launching any run.
- [Check an Apify run and get its results](https://revampkey.com/marketplace/apify-773fbb/skills/run-monitoring-and-retrieval.md): Reads the status of an existing Apify Actor run, pulls its dataset items or stored records, and explains a failure. It only reads data and asks before stopping any run.

### What is a Apify agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Apify skill describes one job, which Apify tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

### Do the Apify skills change anything on their own?

1 of the 3 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Apify.

### Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Apify; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

### Do I need the Apify MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Apify MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Apify MCP setup guide covers every client.
