summary

CLI tools for Svelte 5 documentation lookup and code analysis with built-in autofixer.

  • ›Three core commands: list-sections to browse available docs, get-documentation to fetch full documentation for specific topics, and svelte-autofixer to analyze code and suggest fixes
  • ›Autofixer supports Svelte 4 and 5 targeting via --svelte-version flag and async mode via --async option
  • ›Accepts both inline code (with escaped $ characters) and file paths for analysis
  • ›Designed for use within the sv
skill.md

Svelte 5 Code Writer

CLI Tools

You have access to @sveltejs/mcp CLI for Svelte-specific assistance. Use these commands via npx:

List Documentation Sections

npx @sveltejs/mcp list-sections

Lists all available Svelte 5 and SvelteKit documentation sections with titles and paths.

Get Documentation

npx @sveltejs/mcp get-documentation "<section1>,<section2>,..."

Retrieves full documentation for specified sections. Use after list-sections to fetch relevant docs.

Example:

npx @sveltejs/mcp get-documentation "$state,$derived,$effect"

Svelte Autofixer

npx @sveltejs/mcp svelte-autofixer "<code_or_path>" [options]

Analyzes Svelte code and suggests fixes for common issues.

Options:

  • --async - Enable async Svelte mode (default: false)
  • --svelte-version - Target version: 4 or 5 (default: 5)

Examples:

# Analyze inline code (escape $ as \$)
npx @sveltejs/mcp svelte-autofixer '<script>let count = \$state(0);</script>'

# Analyze a file
npx @sveltejs/mcp svelte-autofixer ./src/lib/Component.svelte

# Target Svelte 4
npx @sveltejs/mcp svelte-autofixer ./Component.svelte --svelte-version 4

Important: When passing code with runes ($state, $derived, etc.) via the terminal, escape the $ character as \$ to prevent shell variable substitution.

Workflow

  1. Uncertain about syntax? Run list-sections then get-documentation for relevant topics
  2. Reviewing/debugging? Run svelte-autofixer on the code to detect issues
  3. Always validate - Run svelte-autofixer before finalizing any Svelte component

How to use svelte-code-writer on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • ›Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • ›Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • ›Active project directory or workspace where you want to add svelte-code-writer
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/sveltejs/ai-tools --skill svelte-code-writer

The skills CLI fetches svelte-code-writer from GitHub repository sveltejs/ai-tools and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/svelte-code-writer

Reload or restart Cursor to activate svelte-code-writer. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /svelte-code-writer) or your agent's skill management interface.

⚠

Security & Verification Notice

We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.

Skills execute code in your development environment. Always verify the publisher's identity, review recent commits, and test in isolated environments before production deployment.

Use Cases▌

Task Automation & Efficiency

Automate repetitive workflows and reduce manual effort

Example

Generate reports, summarize documents, draft communications

✓

Save 3-5 hours per week on routine tasks

Knowledge Enhancement

Learn new skills, understand complex topics, get expert guidance

Example

Explain concepts, provide examples, suggest learning resources

✓

Accelerate learning and skill development by 2x

Quality Improvement

Implementation Guide▌

Prerequisites

  • ›Claude Desktop or compatible AI client with skill support
  • ›Clear understanding of task or problem to solve
  • ›Willingness to iterate and refine outputs

Time Estimate

15-45 minutes depending on use case complexity

Installation Steps

  1. 1.Install skill using provided installation command
  2. 2.Test with simple use case relevant to your work
  3. 3.Evaluate output quality and relevance
  4. 4.Iterate on prompts to improve results
  5. 5.Integrate into regular workflow if valuable

Common Pitfalls

  • ⚠Expecting perfect results without iteration
  • ⚠Not providing enough context in prompts
  • ⚠Using skill for tasks outside its intended scope
  • ⚠Accepting outputs without review and validation

Best Practices▌

✓ Do

  • +Start with clear, specific prompts
  • +Provide relevant context and constraints
  • +Review and refine all outputs before using
  • +Iterate to improve output quality
  • +Document successful prompt patterns

✗ Don't

  • −Don't use without understanding skill limitations
  • −Don't skip validation of outputs
  • −Don't share sensitive information in prompts
  • −Don't expect skill to replace human judgment

💡 Pro Tips

  • ★Be specific about desired format and style
  • ★Ask for multiple options to choose from
  • ★Request explanations to understand reasoning
  • ★Combine AI efficiency with human expertise

When to Use This▌

✓ Use When

Use when skill capabilities match your task, clear ROI on time saved, and you can validate outputs. Best for repetitive tasks, learning, and quality improvement.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid when task requires deep expertise you can't validate, involves sensitive decisions, or when learning process is more valuable than speed of completion.

Learning Path▌

  1. 1Familiarize yourself with skill capabilities and limitations
  2. 2Start with low-risk, non-critical tasks
  3. 3Progress to more complex and valuable use cases
  4. 4Build expertise through regular use and experimentation
