Coding Agent Skill

The Webex CLI includes a skill that enables AI coding agents to query and manage your Webex environment. It works with any agent that supports the skills standard — Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, and others.

  1. Install the Webex CLI (see Installation)
  2. Login: webex login
  3. Download the skill into the correct folder for your coding agent (you can also just paste these instructions into your coding agent):

macOS / Linux:

Terminal window
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/webex-cli
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md \
-o ~/.claude/skills/webex-cli/SKILL.md

Windows (PowerShell):

Terminal window
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skills\webex-cli"
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md" `
-OutFile "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skills\webex-cli\SKILL.md"

macOS / Linux:

Terminal window
mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills/webex-cli
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md \
-o ~/.agents/skills/webex-cli/SKILL.md

Windows (PowerShell):

Terminal window
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.agents\skills\webex-cli"
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md" `
-OutFile "$env:USERPROFILE\.agents\skills\webex-cli\SKILL.md"

macOS / Linux:

Terminal window
mkdir -p ~/.cursor/skills/webex-cli
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md \
-o ~/.cursor/skills/webex-cli/SKILL.md

Windows (PowerShell):

Terminal window
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.cursor\skills\webex-cli"
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md" `
-OutFile "$env:USERPROFILE\.cursor\skills\webex-cli\SKILL.md"
  1. If the webex binary is not in your $PATH, ask your coding agent to update the binary path in the skill file.

Once configured, you can ask your coding agent to:

  • List resources: “List all CC sites”, “Show me the call queues”
  • Inspect configuration: “What teams are on the Cloverhound WxCC site?”
  • Debug issues: “Why can’t agents log in?”, “Check the business hours schedule”
  • Analyze the environment: “Give me an overview of the contact center setup”
  • Run commands: “Get the details for entry point X”
/webex-cli list all CC entry points and show which ones are chat vs voice
/webex-cli how many agents are assigned to each team?
/webex-cli check auth status and list sites

The skill can be customized — just ask your coding agent to modify it. For example:

  • “Add our site names and team structures to the webex-cli skill”
  • “Update the skill to only use read-only commands”
  • “Add a workflow example for checking agent availability”
