Using Bootstrap with AI

Learn about Bootstrap’s machine-readable docs and skills files for working with LLMs and agentic developer tools.

Bootstrap ships resources built for large language models and AI-powered coding tools: machine-readable documentation you can feed to an LLM, and a set of agent skills that walk agents through common Bootstrap tasks step by step.

LLM-ready docs

Our docs are available in a machine-readable format, following the llms.txt convention.

Skills

Install every Bootstrap skill into your coding agent:

Shell
          npx skills add twbs/bootstrap
        

The Skills CLI copies each SKILL.md from our repository into your agent. skills.sh lists the package after people run that command. There is no submit form.

Bootstrap also ships the same agent skills in the skills/ directory of our repository. Each skill is a focused, step-by-step playbook for one Bootstrap task, from migrating a project or setting up a new build to authoring a component and customizing our color system.

To use one without the CLI, point your agent at the relevant SKILL.md file and describe what you want to do. The skill’s description field tells the agent when it applies, and its steps keep the agent aligned with our official guidance. Always review an agent’s changes against the matching documentation.
