# Add Mark skills and the plugin

> Install the Mark plugin or its skills so your agent follows a short playbook for jobs like planning a week of posts.

A skill is a short playbook your agent follows for one job. Skills call the
same tools as any other request, so they do not bypass review. The Mark
plugin bundles the MCP connection and every skill in one install.

## Install

The plugin works in Claude Code, Cursor, Grok Bot, Codex, and VS Code
(through Agent Plugins). In Claude Code:

```
claude plugin marketplace add Life-With-Data/mark-agent-plugin
```

Then `/plugin install mark@mark-gtm`. Skills show up as `/mark:plan-week`
and so on.

To add only the skills to any agent that reads skill folders:

```
npx skills add Life-With-Data/mark-agent-plugin
```

Skills need the Mark MCP server connected. If you did not install the
plugin, [connect your AI agent](/docs/use-mark-from-ai-agents) first.
