One skill format, deployed to 46 AI coding agents
Write a skill once and translate it into the formats used by all 46 supported agents, including hooks, MCP tools and context conventions.
Search and browse hundreds of thousands of skills across 35+ aggregated registries and sources, organized into a hierarchical skill tree.
Generate skills from plain language using Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, Ollama or OpenRouter, and auto-generate optimized agent instructions from your codebase.
A 46-rule scanner flags prompt injection, secrets and malicious patterns, while a built-in test framework with assertions validates skills before deployment.
An AI IDE and coding agent that works on your project, not just your cursor
Trae reads your project files and dependencies, so its suggestions account for how the codebase is actually structured rather than treating each file in isolation.
Describe a task and the agent plans and applies multi-file edits, shows a diff for review, and can run terminal commands as part of the change.
Ask questions about unfamiliar code, get inline explanations, and have bugs or failing tests diagnosed and fixed with context.
TraeCode covers the coding workflow, while TraeWork applies an AI assistant to everyday knowledge tasks — both download for desktop, with a web option.
