scandit-sdk — Claude Code plugin: Scandit SDK skills

# Agent Skills for the Scandit SDK

AI agent skills for integrating the [Scandit Data Capture SDK](https://docs.scandit.com).

Each skill is specific to a product and a framework (e.g. SparkScan iOS), and bundles the recommended integration code, up-to-date setup, permissions and license-key wiring, common customization recipes (modes, callbacks, UI tweaks), and migration guidance, SDK version upgrades and, for some products, replacing a third-party scanner, all grounded in Scandit's own documentation. Install once, then just ask your agent for the feature instead of pasting docs snippets into your AI editor.

## Installation

Install the plugin. One command, and your agent gets all 86 skills:

```bash
npx [email protected] add scandit/skills
```

It detects which coding agents you have and installs into each of them. Re-run the same command to pull the latest skills.

Or install from your agent's own marketplace:

| Agent | Install | Updates |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Codex / ChatGPT App | [One click install](https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugins_6a6c6b6440a08191987ecc241e8660f7), or search **Scandit SDK** in the [plugin directory](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/plugins?surface=app#plugin-directory-in-the-codex-app) | When Scandit publishes a new directory version |
| Claude Code | `/plugin install scandit-sdk@claude-plugins-official`, or search **Scandit SDK** in `/plugin` → **Discover** | Automatic, on each Scandit release |
| Cursor | [One click install](https://cursor.com/marketplace/scandit), or `/add-plugin scandit-sdk` in the editor | Automatic, on each Scandit release |
| Codex CLI | `codex plugin marketplace add scandit/skills`<br>`codex plugin add scandit-sdk@scandit-plugins` | `codex plugin marketplace upgrade scandit-plugins` |
| Copilot CLI | `copilot plugin marketplace add scandit/skills`<br>`copilot plugin install scandit-sdk@scandit-plugins` | `copilot plugin update scandit-sdk` |
| Everyone else | `npx [email protected] add scandit/skills` | Re-run `npx [email protected] add scandit/skills` |

**Just one skill?** Your agent only loads the skills your prompt needs, so the full bundle is the right choice — install once with `npx [email protected] add scandit/skills`.

## How to use it

Describe what you want in plain language. Your agent loads the right skill on its own, or you can call one explicitly with `/skill-name` followed by your task.

**Not sure which Scandit product you need?** Start with `data-capture-sdk`. It is an advisor, not an integration skill: it asks a few questions about your workflow, recommends the right product, then hands off to the matching implementation skill for your platform. Describe your app, paste a screenshot of the screen you want to add scanning to, or drop in a photo of the label, package or ID you need to capture.

```
/data-capture-sdk I need to scan barcodes in a warehouse picking app - which Scandit product should I use?
/data-capture-sdk here is a photo of the labels we want to capture - what fits best?
```

**Already know the product?** Go straight to its skill.

```
/sparkscan-ios add a barcode scanner to the home screen of my app
/label-capture-web capture the expiry date and lot number from these pharmacy labels
```

**Migrating?** Most implementation skills carry version migration guidance alongside first integration. The Barcode Capture, SparkScan and MatrixScan Batch skills add a guide for replacing a third-party scanner.

```
/barcode-capture-android migrate this app from the Scandit SDK v6 API to v8
/matrixscan-batch-web we use BarcodeTracking, move us to BarcodeBatch
/sparkscan-android replace our current third-party barcode scanner with SparkScan
```

## Licence keys

These skills write the integration; they don't provision the licence key by themselves. The [Scandit MCP server](https://ssl.scandit.com/mcp) does that part — connect it (`claude mcp add --transport http scandit https://ssl.scandit.com/mcp`) alongside the skills (`npx [email protected] add scandit/skills`) and each implementation skill's `## Licence key` section will use it to fetch a trial key and write it into your app's licence-key call, showing only a masked preview in chat. The skills never look for a key on your machine: it comes from the MCP server or from you. The key ends up as a literal in your source code, so keep any non-trial key out of version control.

Keys provisioned this way are **trials only**, and the MCP server's auth is browser-based, so it does not work headless or in CI. Without it, the dashboard flow at <https://ssl.scandit.com> still works — every skill falls back to that.

## Privacy

The skills themselves send nothing anywhere. The bundled Scandit MCP server (`https://ssl.scandit.com/mcp`) talks to your Scandit account to provision trial licence keys; Scandit's privacy policy is at <https://www.scandit.com/privacy/>.

| `scandit-xamarin-to-net-migration` | Migrate the **Scandit SDK integration** after a Xamarin app has already been moved onto the supported .NET stack — .NET for Android, .NET for iOS, or .NET MAUI (e.g. after Microsoft's .NET app-modernization tooling; Xamarin support ended May 2024). A post-migration, Scandit-only companion: it swaps `Scandit.DataCapture.*.Xamarin(.Forms)` packages for their .NET/`*.Maui` equivalents, fixes SDK-8 init, the `.Unified` namespaces and views, verifies scanning, and hands off to the matching `*-net-android` / `*-net-ios` / `*-net-maui` skill. The general app migration stays with Microsoft's tooling (the GitHub Copilot app-modernization agent, successor to the deprecated .NET Upgrade Assistant). Produces a Scandit migration report. |

## Contributing

We welcome feedback that improves the quality of these skills:

- **Report issues.** File bugs, outdated SDK patterns, or incorrect guidance in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/scandit/skills/issues).
- **Request new skills.** If a Scandit product, framework, or workflow you need isn't covered, open a feature request.

**Branches:** development happens on [`main`](https://github.com/scandit/skills/tree/main), so target it with pull requests. The default `dist` branch is an install-only copy (no evals or internal tooling) that CI regenerates on every push to `main`; changes pushed to it are overwritten. Because `main` is not the default branch, `Fixes #N` in a PR does not close the issue on merge: close it by hand.

**Pre-push check:** in a `main` clone, run `git config core.hooksPath internal/githooks` once. Every push then runs the skill-auditor structure lint and its tests, and is refused while either reports a finding.
