Agent Skills List and Read

The Serverless Framework CLI bundles Agent Skills for its features. These two commands let an AI coding agent see and read them without installing anything.

serverless agent skills list

Prints one line per bundled skill: name, version, scope (user skills are installed into your home directory by agent setup; project skills into a service directory), and the skill's description. Running serverless agent skills with no subcommand does the same.

serverless agent skills read serverless-sandboxes
serverless agent skills read serverless-sandboxes references/config.md

Prints the skill's SKILL.md, or one of its reference files, to standard output. When the skill has other files, a closing line names them. Nothing is written to disk — to install skills, use agent skills install or agent setup.

Both commands work anywhere — no serverless.yml, no sign-in — and never prompt. An unknown skill or file exits with status 1 and names the valid ones.

Options

Global flags like --debug apply. There are no command-specific options.
