Orca Skills

Agent Skills are self-contained guides that teach an AI agent how to perform a specific task well. Orca publishes skills so that Claude and other skill-aware agents can integrate, operate, and onboard Orca correctly, without you re-explaining the platform each time.

SkillDescription
Orca-integrationIntegrate Orca into an app or backend. Covers the data model, client and backend API planes, store setup, API keys, and webhooks.
Orca-billing-opsRun live billing operations: check a customer’s access, list customers, and cancel Stripe or GoCardless subscriptions. Pairs with the MCP server.
Orca-store-onboardingAutomate connecting a store (Google Play, Stripe, GoCardless, or Apple). Provisions credentials via gcloud, the Stripe API, or the GoCardless API, then connects to Orca. Includes a gcloud script.
Orca-openapiAuthor and maintain an LLM-optimized openapi.json so models can reliably call the Orca API.

Orca skills are published on skills.sh, the community registry for Agent Skills. Search for “Orca” and install with the platform’s one-click or CLI install for your client. This is the easiest way to stay on the latest version.

Each skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file along with optional references/, scripts/, and assets/ directories. Copy the folder into your agent’s skills directory:

Terminal window
# Claude Code, user-level
cp -r Orca-integration ~/.claude/skills/
# Claude Code, project-level
cp -r Orca-integration .claude/skills/

The skill’s description field controls when the agent loads it. You do not invoke skills manually. The agent consults the description and loads the skill automatically when your task matches.

How skills and the MCP server work together

Section titled “How skills and the MCP server work together”

Skills and the MCP server are complementary:

  • Skills provide the knowledge: the Orca data model, the correct sequence of steps, the manual gaps in store onboarding, and security practices.
  • The MCP server provides the actions: callable tools to check entitlements, manage apps, and a Orca_store_connection_guide tool that returns step-by-step instructions.

Together, they enable a seamless workflow. The agent reads the Orca-store-onboarding skill to understand how to provision a store’s credentials, runs the bundled gcloud script, and guides you through the dashboard where you enter the secrets.
