Capacitor Agent Skills

Capgo - Instant updates for capacitor

Formerly @capgo/capacitor-skills (and Cap-go/capacitor-skills). Links and redirects should continue to work.

A collection of 29 skills for AI coding agents working with Capacitor, the cross-platform native runtime. Skills are packaged instructions that extend agent capabilities for mobile development.
