Install Agent Deep Links

Pick your agent. Every command is ready to paste.

$npx skills add composio-community/awesome-codex-skills --skill agent-deep-links

The open skills CLI detects your agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ more) and installs to the right folder. Add -g to install globally.

01

Install it

Run the command above, or upload the folder in Claude.

02

Ask naturally

Describe the task. Your agent loads agent-deep-links when the request matches its description.

03

Name it if needed

If it does not trigger, say “use the agent-deep-links skill”. In Codex, type $agent-deep-links.

Overview

Use this skill when a user asks for clickable links that should open directly in an app (usually from Slack). This includes verifying whether a target app supports deep links at all, selecting the right URL shape, and providing fallbacks when deep links are unsupported.

Workflow

  1. Identify target app + target object:
    • Thread/conversation
    • File/folder
    • Settings/new window
  2. Read references/deep-link-matrix.md for known-good link formats and support level.
  3. If support is unknown, verify locally before sending:
    • Check URL schemes in the app bundle:
      /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Print :CFBundleURLTypes' /Applications/<App>.app/Contents/Info.plist
      
    • Smoke test launch behavior:
      open '<scheme>://...'
      
  4. Construct Slack-safe link syntax:
    • <url|label>
  5. If unsupported or uncertain, send a fallback:
    • Plain path + command
    • Documented CLI open command
    • Statement that no official deep-link format is known

Output Rules

  • Prefer absolute paths for file/folder links.
  • Keep labels short and action-oriented (Open in Cursor, Open in Codex).
  • Do not claim deep-link support unless it is in the matrix or just verified.
  • For uncertain app routes, clearly mark as inferred/experimental.

Common Templates

  • Codex thread:
    • <codex://threads/<thread-uuid>|Open in Codex>
  • Cursor file:
    • <cursor://file/<absolute-path>:<line>:<column>|Open in Cursor>
  • VS Code file:
    • <vscode://file/<absolute-path>:<line>:<column>|Open in VS Code>
  • VS Code Insiders file:
    • <vscode-insiders://file/<absolute-path>:<line>:<column>|Open in VS Code Insiders>

Use references/deep-link-matrix.md for the full cross-app matrix and support notes.

Tips for Agent Deep Links

  • • Start a fresh session after installing so your agent picks up the new skill.
  • • It bundles reference files. The agent reads them only when needed, so they cost no context until then.
  • • It is part of a pack with 30 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
  • • If two skills overlap, mention the one you want by name.
