Install

npx skills add postmanlabs/postman-plugin --skill variables

Runs the open skills CLI and installs the skill for your agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor …). Alternatively copy the skill folder into .claude/skills/ or upload it in Claude.ai under Settings → Skills.

As a Claude Code plugin

/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official /plugin install postman@postman

This skill is part of the plugin “postman”. In Claude Code the plugin installs it together with the plugin’s other skills, commands and hooks.

What does the variables skill do?

Use when parameterizing requests across environments, choosing variable scopes, chaining values in scripts, or referencing credentials without committing or exposing them. Keeps one reusable collection while separating target configuration from secret values. Use for requests such as "where should I put this API key".

Description from the SKILL.md in the source repository.

Questions about variables

What does the variables skill do?

Use when parameterizing requests across environments, choosing variable scopes, chaining values in scripts, or referencing credentials without committing or exposing them. Keeps one reusable collection while separating target configuration from secret values. Use for requests such as "where should I put this API key".

How do I install variables?

In a terminal: npx skills add postmanlabs/postman-plugin --skill variables. The skills CLI asks which agents to install it for. In Claude.ai you can upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Settings → Skills.

Which agents can use variables?

Skills use the open SKILL.md format, which Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents support.

Is variables safe to use?

Our automatic check found no risky patterns (piped shell scripts, hidden characters, secret access, prompt overrides). It is not a full audit – read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.

flows
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when running, deploying, or debugging an existing Postman Flow. Distinguishes local graph execution from a deployed webhook, reuses named input scenarios, and follows a run to the failing block rather than treating an HTTP response as whole-flow success. Use for requests such as "why did this flow fail".

application-testing
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Sets up, runs, debugs, and interprets results from `postman application test` — the Postman layer that runs your Playwright tests, captures their network traffic, matches it against a collection contract, runs pm.test assertions, and publishes results to Application Inventory. Covers the Postman side of the integration only — not Playwright test authoring or Playwright failures unrelated to capture. Use when the user asks to "set up application testing," "test my application with Postman," "connect my Playwright tests to Postman," "capture network traffic from Playwright," "Playwright tests are running but nothing shows up in Postman," "why isn't application testing capturing anything," "exclude certain requests from capture," "generate a collection from my app's traffic," "set up application testing in CI," "what API coverage do my e2e tests have," "which APIs are my Playwright tests not hitting."

Testing & QA curated
No risky patterns found
ci-integration
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when adding API tests, structural or governance lint, or AI-readiness gates to CI, or publishing reviewed API artifacts to a Postman workspace after merge. Makes contract checks repeatable and separates validation from shared workspace changes. Use for requests such as "run this collection on every PR".

DevOps & Cloud curated
No risky patterns found
collection-schema-v3
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when writing or debugging local Postman v3 collection, environment or globals files, including collection lint failures. Preserves the per-entity files, inherited context, and schema shapes that make API changes reusable and reviewable in Git. Use for requests such as "fix this request YAML".

Development curated
No risky patterns found
datasets
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when creating or repairing dataset manifests, or when a collection needs queried or joined test inputs, a reusable named view, spreadsheet worksheet data, live database rows, or script access through pm.datasets(). Chooses between a simple iteration file and a dataset while preserving query semantics, portability, and credential boundaries. Use for requests such as "run this collection over database rows".

Data & Databases curated
No risky patterns found
postman-mcp-server
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when working through Postman MCP tools to inspect or change workspace resources, choose a targeted operation, or handle MCP limitations. Supports hosted workflows when the CLI is unavailable and distinguishes tool completion from a usable result. Use for requests such as "use Postman MCP to inspect this collection".

Agents & Workflows curated
No risky patterns found
workspaces
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Use when initializing Postman in a repository, binding it to a Postman workspace, interpreting what `postman init` did, or handling CLI-suggested actions for authentication, plan, credits, usage quota, or subscription restrictions. Treats the workspace as the place where a service's API work and its evidence live, kept separate from the services it depends on. Use for requests such as "set up Postman in this repo" or "connect this repo to our workspace".

Development curated
No risky patterns found
webhook-testing
postmanlabs/postman-plugin

Capture, forward to localhost, replay, and validate webhook deliveries using a reusable public URL. Keep sender configuration across debugging sessions and record arrivals even while local forwarding is stopped, helping distinguish delivery failures from local connectivity issues. Use for implementing or debugging incoming handlers and testing webhooks an API sends, whether or not Postman is mentioned. Example requests include "get payment events to localhost," "inspect a webhook delivery," and "replay an event after a fix"; these illustrate intent, not an exhaustive list or exact phrases to match.

google-agents-cli-adk-code
google/agents-cli

This skill should be used when the user wants to "write agent code", "build an agent with ADK", "add a tool", "create a callback", "define an agent", "use state management" — in a project that needs ADK (Agent Development Kit) API patterns and code examples. It provides a quick reference for agent types, tool definitions, orchestration patterns, callbacks, state management, the graph Workflow API, and reference recipes to study. Do NOT use for scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold) or deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).

ai-music
gencraft-labs/skills

Generate AI music on RunComfy via the `runcomfy` CLI — a smart router across the music-model catalog. Routes to ElevenLabs AI Music Generation (premium 44.1 kHz stereo vocal tracks, 5 s–5 min, $0.0083/s) and ACE Step / ACE Step 1.5 (StepFun-AI open-weights, tag-driven composition, multilingual lyrics, $0.0002–0.0003/s, ~27× cheaper), plus ACE Step audio-inpaint (regenerate a time range inside an existing track) and ACE Step audio-outpaint (extend a track before or after). Picks the right model for the user's actual intent — premium vocal hook, cheap background music library, multilingual pop song, repair a bad chorus, lengthen a 30 s draft into a 2 min cut — and ships each model's documented prompting patterns plus the minimal `runcomfy run` invoke. Triggers on "generate music", "make a song", "AI music", "background music", "instrumental track", "soundtrack", "jingle", "theme music", "royalty-free music", "compose", "music with lyrics", "extend music", "fix this song", "inpaint music", or any explicit ask to generate or edit music.
