Description

Installs the community Payload CMS skill for Claude Code via npx skills-add. This gives Claude Code Payload-specific guidance for collections, hooks, access control, fields, queries, and plugin development.

The skill files live in .agents/skills/payload/ and are symlinked into .claude/skills/payload. The .gitignore is updated to allow committing .claude/skills/ so the skill is shared across the team automatically.
