Before we write a single line of REVIEWBOT, we set your coding agent up for success. A general-purpose agent does not know Cloudflare’s conventions. Cloudflare Skills fix that.
Prerequisites: Node 18+, a coding agent (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Gemini, or Cursor), and a free Cloudflare account (wrangler login). Everything else, including Skills, the clone, and the dev server, we do right here.
What are Agent Skills?
Skills are structured, task-specific instructions an AI agent loads on demand. Instead of you re-explaining how Durable Objects work every time, the agent pulls in the relevant skill exactly when a task needs it. Cloudflare publishes skills covering Workers, storage, AI, Workflows, networking, and Zero Trust at github.com/cloudflare/skills.
Install the skills
Pick the method for your tool:
- Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add cloudflare/skillsthen/plugin install cloudflare@cloudflare - OpenCode / Codex / any Agent Skills tool:
npx skills add https://github.com/cloudflare/skills - Cursor: add a Remote Rule (GitHub) pointing at
cloudflare/skills
Pin your conventions with AGENTS.md
AGENTS.md at the project root is the first thing the agent reads each session. It is where you record project rules so the agent follows them without being told. The reviewbot-agent repo ships one.
Scaffold REVIEWBOT
git clone https://github.com/TimoWilhelm/reviewbot-agent
cd reviewbot-agent
git checkout checkpoint-0-starter
npm install
npm run devOpen http://localhost:5173. You should see a chat UI with a bare reviewer persona and no tools yet. That is our starting line.
