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.
- Install the Webex CLI (see Installation)
- Login:
webex login - Download the skill into the correct folder for your coding agent (you can also just paste these instructions into your coding agent):
Claude Code
Section titled “Claude Code”macOS / Linux:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/webex-clicurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.claude/skills/webex-cli/SKILL.mdWindows (PowerShell):

Section titled “OpenAI Codex”macOS / Linux:
mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills/webex-clicurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Cloverhound/webex-cli/main/skill/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.agents/skills/webex-cli/SKILL.mdWindows (PowerShell):

Section titled “Cursor”macOS / Linux:

webexbinary is not in your$PATH, ask your coding agent to update the binary path in the skill file.
What the Skill Can Do
Section titled “What the Skill Can Do”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”
Example Prompts
Section titled “Example Prompts”/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 sitesCustomization
Section titled “Customization”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”
