Wren Engine — Agent Skill Distribution
The actual skill content (workflow guides, reference docs, prompt helpers)
lives inside the wren CLI. This directory ships a single discovery stub
that an AI client installs once; the stub then tells the agent to fetch
everything else from the CLI at runtime (so content always matches the
installed wren-engine version).
See SKILLS.md for the full design and command surface.
Install
The CLI itself (where all skill content lives)
pip install wrenai
The discovery stub (so an AI client knows the CLI exists)
Option 1 — Claude Code plugin
/plugin marketplace add Canner/WrenAI --path skills
/plugin install wren@wren
Option 2 — npx skills
npx skills add Canner/WrenAI
The installer auto-detects your AI client. To target a specific one, add
--agent <name> (e.g. claude-code, cursor, windsurf, cline).
Option 3 — local install script
bash skills/install.sh # install the discovery stub
bash skills/install.sh --force # overwrite existing
What the agent does with the stub
Once installed, the agent reads wren/SKILL.md and learns to call:
wren skills list # discover workflow guides
wren skills get onboarding # fetch a guide (one of 5 names)
wren docs connection-info <ds> # connection fields for a data source
wren ask "<question>" --guided|--direct # wrap a prompt for an agent
Requirements
wren CLI installed (pip install wrenai or pip install "wrenai[<extras>]")- A database connection (configured via
wren profile add)
- An AI client that supports skills (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, etc.)
