Mist Skills is Fluid’s public repository of skills and workflows for Mist, Fluid’s AI assistant. They give an AI agent Fluid know-how: how to read and change a Fluid company, build a storefront theme, open a country or audit a catalog. You can use them in two places:
  • In Mist. Mist downloads the latest skills and workflows each time it starts, and lists them as Community skills. See Skills and Workflows in the Help Center.
  • Outside Mist. Each skill is a Markdown file of instructions, so other coding agents, such as Claude Code, can follow it too.
Some skills call tools that only Mist provides. Those parts work only in Mist. The skill table below shows which.

​
How the repository is organized

Each skill starts with YAML frontmatter that gives its name and description, followed by the instructions. A folder skill’s manifest.json entry lists every reference file it needs, in references.

​
Use a skill outside Mist

The repository doesn’t include an installer for other agents. Give your agent the skill’s Markdown file, and the reference files its manifest.json entry lists. Then keep these differences in mind:
  • Fluid API calls. In Mist, skills call the Fluid API through a fluid_api tool that signs requests as you. Outside Mist, your agent calls the same endpoints with a Bearer token. See Authentication.
  • Fluid CLI commands. In Mist, skills run Fluid CLI commands through a run_cli tool, with the CLI that ships inside Mist. Outside Mist, your agent runs the same fluid commands in a terminal where the Fluid CLI is installed and signed in. See Fluid CLI. If a command isn’t available in your installed CLI, that step needs Mist.
  • Template tokens. Mist fills in tokens such as {{company.name}}, {{company.subdomain}}, {{today}} and {{thirty_days_ago}} before it runs a skill. Outside Mist, tell your agent the values.
  • File tools and web fetches work the same way with any agent that can read and write files and fetch web pages.
Skills make real changes to a Fluid company, such as importing products or pushing a theme. Read a skill before your agent runs it, and use a token for a test company while you try it out.

​
Tools only Mist provides

These tools are built into Mist. No other agent has them, so a skill step that calls one works only in Mist.

​
Skills

“Yes” means the skill uses only the Fluid API, the Fluid CLI, files and web fetches. “Partly” names the steps that need Mist. “Mist only” means the skill depends on Mist tools for its main job.

Workflows

Workflows run only in Mist. Mist’s workflow engine runs each step in its own chat, checks it against acceptance criteria, and reworks it when it falls short. Another agent can read a workflow file, but nothing outside Mist runs it.

Contribute a skill

The repository’s README explains the skill format, the manifest.json fields and how to open a pull request. Fluid’s maintainers review every change before it reaches Mist.
