Exasol Agent Skills

Skills for Claude Code and OpenAI Codex that provide focused Exasol guidance. Use /exasol or ask naturally.

Install and update

Interactive install

curl -fsSL --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exasol-labs/exasol-agent-skills/main/install.sh | sh

The installer asks whether to install for Claude Code, Codex, or both. Codex opens a skill picker; select the shared exasol router plus any specialized skills you need. The installer also asks before installing or updating exapump.

Non-interactive install

curl -fsSL --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/exasol-labs/exasol-agent-skills/main/install.sh \
  | AGENT=both CODEX_SKILLS=all INSTALL_EXAPUMP=no sh

Set AGENT to claude, codex, or both. CODEX_SKILLS=all installs all Codex skills without a picker. Set INSTALL_EXAPUMP=yes to install or update exapump; otherwise it is skipped. With no variables, a non-interactive run installs both agents and all Codex skills, but skips exapump.

Rerun the installer to update the selected integrations.
