## What it does

This skill equips agents with reference material for Turso Cloud. It covers client libraries for JavaScript and TypeScript (`@tursodatabase/serverless`), Python (`pyturso`, `libsql`), Go (`tursogo`, `libsql-client-go`), and Rust (`turso`, `libsql`). It details queries, batches, and interactive transactions.

It covers local-first replication alongside Turso Cloud built-in capabilities: vector search with DiskANN indexing, BM25 full-text search, copy-on-write branching, and point-in-time recovery. The documentation also details credential management, including scoping tokens by database or table and connecting JWKS providers like Clerk or Auth0.

Deploying changes and managing resources requires the Turso CLI or Vercel CLI, because the skill only provides documentation and commands for those tools.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add tursodatabase/agent-skills --skill turso-cloud -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/turso-cloud/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add tursodatabase/agent-skills --skill turso-cloud -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add tursodatabase/agent-skills --skill turso-cloud -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install tursodatabase/agent-skills turso-cloud
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add tursodatabase/agent-skills --skill turso-cloud -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/tursodatabase/agent-skills --path skills/turso-cloud
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add tursodatabase/agent-skills --skill turso-cloud -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/tursodatabase/agent-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/turso-cloud/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- connect Node.js, Python, Go, or Rust applications to Turso Cloud
- configure local-first replication with @tursodatabase/sync or pyturso
- restrict database tokens or integrate external auth via Clerk and Auth0
- provision Turso databases through the Vercel Marketplace integration

## Example prompts
- Connect this Python service to Turso Cloud using pyturso with local sync
- Create a scoped read-only auth token for our database using the Turso CLI
- Set up vector search using DiskANN indexing and cosine distance in Turso

  Turso Cloud — fully managed SQLite-compatible database platform, accessed over the network.
  Use when connecting an application to a Turso Cloud database, creating or scoping auth tokens
  (JWT, fine-grained permissions, JWKS/external auth providers), or provisioning and managing
  cloud databases. Covers per-language SDKs (JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust),
  authentication & authorization, and marketplace integrations (Vercel).

# Turso Cloud Skills

This skill combines documentation for working with Turso Cloud, the fully managed SQLite-compatible database platform. Pick the relevant sub-skill below.

## [turso-cloud-js](turso-cloud-js/overview.md)

Work with the `@tursodatabase/serverless` TypeScript/JavaScript SDK for remote Turso Cloud databases — queries, positional/named parameters, batches, and interactive transactions — plus the local-first sync family (`@tursodatabase/sync`, `-wasm`, `-react-native`). Use when connecting to Turso Cloud from Node.js, serverless/edge functions, browsers, or React Native.

## [turso-cloud-py](turso-cloud-py/overview.md)

Work with Turso Cloud from Python: `pyturso` for local-first databases that sync with the cloud, and `libsql` for remote-only access over the libsql protocol. Use when connecting Python applications to Turso Cloud.

## [turso-cloud-go](turso-cloud-go/overview.md)

Work with Turso Cloud from Go: `tursogo` for local-first databases that sync with the cloud, and `libsql-client-go` for remote-only access over the libsql protocol. Use when connecting Go applications to Turso Cloud.

## [turso-cloud-rust](turso-cloud-rust/overview.md)

Work with Turso Cloud from Rust: the `turso` crate (`sync` feature) for local-first databases that sync with the cloud, and the `libsql` crate for remote-only access over the libsql protocol. Use when connecting Rust applications to Turso Cloud.

## [turso-cloud-auth](turso-cloud-auth/overview.md)

Authenticate and authorize access to Turso Cloud databases: database URLs, platform tokens via the Turso CLI, scoping (group/database/read-only/time-limited), fine-grained per-table permissions, external auth providers via JWKS (Clerk, Auth0), and token invalidation. Use when issuing credentials, restricting what a client can do, or wiring an existing auth provider to Turso.

## [turso-cloud-vercel](turso-cloud-vercel/overview.md)

Use and manage Turso Cloud databases provisioned through the Vercel Marketplace (integration slug `tursocloud`): injected environment variables, inspecting and provisioning resources with the Vercel CLI, region selection, and safety rules for credentials and destructive operations. Use when a Vercel project has — or needs — a Turso database.

## Turso Cloud features

Turso Cloud databases support these features out of the box:
