A collection of AI agent skills for working with Expo projects and Expo Application Services
Expo Skills is an official collection of AI agent skills from the Expo team that teach coding assistants how to build, deploy, upgrade, and debug Expo and React Native applications. The skills provide focused knowledge on when to use Expo APIs, how to structure common workflows, and which platform constraints matter across Expo SDK, EAS, React Native, iOS, and Android. Developers install them via the skills CLI for Cursor, Windsurf, and similar agents, or as plugins in Claude Code and Codex, enabling AI assistants to correctly apply Expo documentation and tooling in real projects.

What's the difference between Expo Skills and the Expo MCP server?+
Expo Skills teach agents how Expo work gets done, while the Expo MCP server gives agents live access to actually do that work—reading docs, installing dependencies, triggering builds, and pulling crash data. The expo plugin bundles both for Claude Code and Codex.
