Extend your AI coding agent with pre-built skills for SQD products. Skills follow the Agent Skills format and work with any compatible AI coding agent.
Agent Skills are experimental. The format and available skills may change.

​
Install all skills

npx skills add subsquid-labs/skills --all
Or install skills individually: 
npx skills add subsquid-labs/skills/pipes-sdk
Skills activate automatically once installed. The agent picks the right one based on your task.

​
Pipes SDK skill

One skill covering the full lifecycle of blockchain indexers built with the Pipes SDK, a lightweight TypeScript framework for EVM, Solana, and Hyperliquid chains.
SkillUse case
pipes-sdkBuild, configure, deploy, and troubleshoot Pipes SDK indexers. Covers EVM, Solana, and Hyperliquid scaffolding via @iankressin/pipes-cli, runtime error diagnosis, sync performance tuning, and data quality validation
Example prompts:
  • “Create a new indexer for USDC transfers on Ethereum”
  • “Create an indexer for Uniswap V3 swaps. Help me fetch the ABI and design the schema”
  • “Track BTC/ETH/SOL perpetual futures fills on Hyperliquid”
  • “My indexer crashed with ‘Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘topic’)’”
  • “My indexer is syncing slowly, help me optimize it”
  • “Deploy my indexer to ClickHouse Cloud”
Pipes SDK requires Node.js LTS (v20 or v22). Avoid v25+ due to zstd decompression bugs that crash large Portal streams.

​
Portal skill

One skill for querying blockchain data across 210+ chains via SQD Portal without infrastructure.
SkillUse case
portalQuery blockchain data across all supported chains. EVM logs/transactions/traces, Solana instructions, Substrate events/calls/extrinsics, Hyperliquid fills, and Bitcoin transactions/inputs/outputs. Includes dataset discovery and verification
Example prompts:
  • “Query all USDC transfers on Base between blocks 10M–11M”
  • “Find all contracts deployed by 0x123… on Ethereum”
  • “Track Jupiter swap instructions on Solana”
  • “Query recent Bitcoin transactions and analyze fee patterns”
  • “Analyze BTC trading fills on Hyperliquid”
  • “Index Polkadot balance transfer events”
  • “What’s the correct Portal dataset name for Arbitrum?”

​
Squid SDK skill

One skill for profiling and comparing sync-time performance of Squid SDK deployments.
SkillUse case
squid-perfCompare sync-time performance across one or more Squid SDK deployments. Fetches logs via the sqd CLI, parses per-service progress, and generates a self-contained HTML report plus a Markdown summary with wall-clock, active-time, and downtime breakdowns at log-spaced block breakpoints. Supports single-indexer mode for metrics-only profiling
Example prompts:
  • “Compare sync performance of my staging and production Squid deployments”
  • “Profile the sync time of my Squid indexer and show me where it slows down”
  • “/squid-perf squid-name@v1 squid-name@v2”
  • “Why is my settlement-arbitrum service syncing slower than yesterday’s deployment?”
