The ServiceNow IDE and ServiceNow SDK support developing applications in source code with ServiceNow Fluent, creating JavaScript modules, and using third-party libraries. ServiceNow Fluent is a TypeScript-based domain-specific programming language for creating application metadata in code.
This repository contains agent skills for creating, editing, and deploying ServiceNow Fluent applications. These skills teach AI coding assistants how to use the @servicenow/sdk CLI to look up platform conventions, metadata types, and project structure before making changes.
Important
These skills rely on features available only in version 4.6.0 or newer of the SDK.
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| now-sdk | Covers CLI discovery, SDK documentation, and live instance queries. Automatically triggered when working in a Fluent app or when ServiceNow/Fluent topics are mentioned. Uses npx @servicenow/sdk --help and explain quickstart to orient the agent, then provides guidance for the explain and query subcommands. |
- Start a Claude Code session.
- Add the marketplace and install the plugin:
/plugin install servicenow-sdk@claude-plugins-official /reload-plugins
- Start a Codex session.
- Run the following command to directly install the skill:
$skill-installer https://github.com/ServiceNow/sdk/tree/master/skills/now-sdk - Restart Codex to load the skill.
- Open Cursor Settings (Cmd+Shift+J).
- Navigate to Plugins.
- Paste in the link to the repo:
https://github.com/ServiceNow/sdk.git - Select
Add to Cursorfor thefluentplugin.
Alternatively, loading the skills into Claude Code will also allow Cursor to use them.
- Start a Grok session.
- Add the marketplace and install the plugin:
grok plugin marketplace add servicenow/sdk grok plugin install servicenow --trust - Restart Grok or run
/pluginsand reload plugins to load the skill.
Alternatively, install the plugin directly without adding the marketplace:
grok plugin install servicenow/sdk#providers/grok/plugin --trust
The providers/kiro/ directory contains a Power with steering files for each skill.
- Open Kiro and navigate to the
Powertab. - Select
Add power from GitHub. - Enter this URL:
https://github.com/ServiceNow/sdk/tree/master/providers/kiro. - Select the power from the list.
Some agents may not have built in support to install skills from Github. However, you can manually install the skills by following these steps:
- Start a new session with your favorite AI coding tool.
- Prompt it to install the skills directly from GitHub:
Please install these skills in my user level configuration from github: https://github.com/ServiceNow/sdk/tree/master/skills - The agent should be able to pull and load the skills from the configuration.
- You may need to restart the agent to load the skills.
