A skill your agent uses when building AI agents in Dart, implementing Genkit flows or tools, integrating LLMs into Dart or Flutter applications, or using Genkit Dart plugins.

What it does

Developing Genkit Dart is an agent skill from evanca/flutter-ai-rules. Use when building AI agents in Dart, implementing Genkit flows or tools, integrating LLMs into Dart or Flutter applications, or using Genkit Dart plugins.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/genkit.md` and `references/genkit_anthropic.md`).

It sits in Mobile, covering Cross-platform mobile apps and Building AI agents. It works with Dart, Flutter and OpenAI. The repository describes itself as: Flutter AI Skills and Rules for Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Other AI-Powered IDEs. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Building AI agents in Dart
  • Implementing Genkit flows
  • Integrating LLMs into Dart
  • Flutter applications

Example prompts

  • “/developing-genkit-dart”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7b9cce2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • dart

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • genkit.dev
    • pub.dev

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Developing Genkit Dart loads about 961 tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 404 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~961
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Genkit Dart

Genkit Dart is an AI SDK for Dart that provides a unified interface for code generation, structured outputs, tools, flows, and AI agents.

Core Features and Usage

If you need help with initializing Genkit (Genkit()), Generation (ai.generate), Tooling (ai.defineTool), Flows (ai.defineFlow), Embeddings (ai.embedMany), streaming, or calling remote flow endpoints, please load the core framework reference: references/genkit.md

The Genkit CLI provides a local development UI for running Flow, tracing executions, playing with models, and evaluating outputs.

check if the user has it installed: genkit --version

Installation:

bash
npm install -g genkit-cli # Via npm (preferred)

A native CLI installer is also documented at https://genkit.dev/docs/devtools — it pipes a remote script to bash, so run it yourself rather than having an agent execute it.

Usage: Wrap your run command with genkit start to attach the Genkit developer UI and tracing:

bash
genkit start -- dart run main.dart

Plugin Ecosystem

Genkit relies on a large suite of plugins to perform generative AI actions, interface with external LLMs, or host web servers.

When asked to use any given plugin, always verify usage by referring to its corresponding reference below. You should load the reference when you need to know the specific initialization arguments, tools, models, and usage patterns for the plugin:

Plugin NameReference LinkDescription
genkit_google_genaireferences/genkit_google_genai.mdLoad for Google Gemini plugin interface usage.
genkit_anthropicreferences/genkit_anthropic.mdLoad for Anthropic plugin interface for Claude models.
genkit_openaireferences/genkit_openai.mdLoad for OpenAI plugin interface for GPT models, Groq, and custom compatible endpoints.
genkit_middlewarereferences/genkit_middleware.mdLoad for Tooling for specific agentic behavior: filesystem, skills, and toolApproval interrupts.
genkit_mcpreferences/genkit_mcp.mdLoad for Model Context Protocol integration (Server, Host, and Client capabilities).
genkit_chromereferences/genkit_chrome.mdLoad for Running Gemini Nano locally inside the Chrome browser using the Prompt API.
genkit_shelfreferences/genkit_shelf.mdLoad for Integrating Genkit Flow actions over HTTP using Dart Shelf.
genkit_firebase_aireferences/genkit_firebase_ai.mdLoad for Firebase AI plugin interface (Gemini API via Vertex AI).

External Dependencies

Whenever you define schemas mapping inside of Tools, Flows, and Prompts, you must use the schemantic library. To learn how to use schemantic, ensure you read references/schemantic.md for how to implement type safe generated Dart code. This is particularly relevant when you encounter symbols like @Schema(), SchemanticType, or classes with the $ prefix. Genkit Dart uses schemantic for all of its data models so it's a CRITICAL skill to understand for using Genkit Dart.

Best Practices

  • Always check that code cleanly compiles using dart analyze before generating the final response.
  • Always use the Genkit CLI for local development and debugging.
