daily.dev — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install
This skill gives an agent access to current developer content through the daily.dev API. Use it to find articles and manage feeds or bookmarks.
npx skills add dailydotdev/daily --skill daily.dev -a claude-codeWhat daily.dev does
The skill connects an agent to the daily.dev API for discovering developer content, reading personal bookmarks, managing bookmark lists, and retrieving posts from custom feeds. Its instructions cover API requests, pagination parameters, and looking up endpoint details in the OpenAPI schema.
The package includes Bash-based guidance and setup for DAILY_DEV_TOKEN. The token can be kept in secure storage on macOS, Windows, or Linux. An alternative is the remote MCP server at https://api.daily.dev/mcp, which uses OAuth. The token grants access to personalized content and must only be sent to api.daily.dev, so secret storage is part of the setup.
What it helps with
- find current developer articles
- retrieve posts from a custom feed
- search through bookmarked posts
- create or update a custom feed
- add posts to bookmarks
Example prompts for the agent
- Find current developer articles about APIs and compare their main points.
- Search my unread bookmarks for “Postgres”.
- Create a custom feed for the requested content settings and explain the resulting configuration.
