Astro Agent Skill

An Agent Skill for building static sites with Astro. Teaches AI coding agents how to create Astro components, set up content collections, optimize images, configure SEO, and follow best practices for static site generation.

Framework-agnostic — works with React, Svelte, Vue, or any UI framework supported by Astro.

What's Included

Key Principles

• Astro-first — .astro files for all presentational UI, framework components only when interactivity is needed
• Minimal hydration — lightest client:* directive that works
• Small islands — only the interactive subtree gets hydrated
• Static output — output: 'static', no SSR
• Local fonts — Fontsource packages, never Google Fonts CDN

Requirements

• Astro v5+
• Static output (output: 'static')
