VTEX Skills — Setup Guide¶
Source: vtex/skills GitHub: vtex/skills Skills: 51 skills · 32.6K total installs Category: Ecommerce Development First Seen: March 17, 2026 (catalogued August 18, 2026 sweep) Quality Tier: 🟢 Production — Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass, Socket Pass, and Snyk Pass on the vtex-io-react-apps flagship; official VTEX org; 39 GitHub stars
VTEX is a major ecommerce platform, and this is its official agent skill suite for building on it. The 51 skills map the platform's surfaces: VTEX IO apps (React frontends, service apps, GraphQL APIs, auth, master data, events, observability), FastStore storefront development (theming, state management, data fetching, overrides), headless commerce architecture (BFF patterns, checkout proxy, caching, intelligent search), payments (provider protocol, PCI security, idempotency, async flows), and marketplace operations (order hooks, catalog sync, rate limiting, fulfillment). Each skill carries explicit decision rules and cross-references sibling skills when a task belongs elsewhere.

- Publisher-page total verified (32.6K across 51 skills); 39 GitHub stars as of the sweep
- Skills assume VTEX platform context (IO CLI, workspaces) and are not general-purpose ecommerce guides
- First seen March 17, 2026; the suite has grown steadily since
