Set up
Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.
The download comes from github.com/Portkey-AI/skills itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published.
Install instructions come from the README
Skills do not use an MCP config. Follow the steps in the README below.

Skills
| Skill | Install | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Python SDK | npx add-skill portkey-ai/skills --skill py | Your assistant learns to write Portkey Python — completions, streaming, async, caching, fallbacks, load balancing, observability, guardrails |
| TypeScript SDK | npx add-skill portkey-ai/skills --skill ts | Same coverage for the Node.js / TypeScript SDK |
| LiteLLM Migration | npx add-skill portkey-ai/skills --skill migrate | Your assistant gets side-by-side API mapping to convert LiteLLM code to Portkey, migrate proxy configs, and switch AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) from LiteLLM to Portkey |
Install all skills at once:
npx add-skill portkey-ai/skills
Before you start
These skills teach your AI assistant how to write Portkey code — but Portkey itself needs a one-time setup:
- Sign up at app.portkey.ai
- Add your AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, etc.) in the Model Catalog — this is where your provider credentials live
- Copy your Portkey API key from Settings
Your assistant will use this API key and the @provider-slug/model-name format to route requests through Portkey.
