rill — Claude Code plugin: skills for Rill projects
A set of skills that teaches your agent to build Rill models, connectors and dashboards the way the platform expects. Useful when you drive a Rill project from the terminal.
/plugin install rill@claude-plugins-official
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-officialWhat rill does
The plugin splits guidance into separate skills: whole-project development, canvas dashboards, explore dashboards, metrics views, models, connectors, themes, and the rill.yaml file. Each one carries instructions plus a syntax reference, so the agent pulls in the right piece when it touches that area.
Some tools go through MCP and need a running Rill Developer instance on localhost:9009, started with rill start. With no live server that half stays silent, so check it is up before you ask the agent to reach into the data.
The content is synced from the output of rill init --agent agentsmd. These are the same instructions behind the coding assistant built into Rill, now available to your agent inside Claude.
What it helps with
- write a Rill model with correct syntax
- build a canvas dashboard from a description
- wire up a connector to a data source
- attach an explore dashboard to a metrics view
- set project theming through the project file
Example prompts for the agent
- Add a new Rill model for this table and check the syntax.
- Build an explore dashboard on top of the existing metrics view.
- Hook up a new connector and update
rill.yamlto match.
