Collection of Apify agent skills
Apify Agent Skills is a collection of five production-grade skills that equip AI coding agents with web scraping and automation capabilities through the Apify platform. The skills enable agents to scrape any website using 130+ curated Actors (covering Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Google Maps, Amazon, and more), build and deploy new Actors in JavaScript, TypeScript, or Python, convert existing code into serverless Actors, generate output schemas, and integrate Apify functionality into applications. These skills work with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and other agents that read Markdown, transforming natural language requests into complete scraping workflows.
