Is the Adobe Illustrator Scripting skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from github/awesome-copilot. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Adobe Illustrator Scripting SkillProof Score?

7.6/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 4/5, output vs. baseline 5/10, docs & honesty 5/5.

How do I install Adobe Illustrator Scripting?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Adobe Illustrator Scripting with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 7.6/10
Tested: Jul 11, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 103bf7c

Verbatim install (clone + cp) succeeded with only the skills-target path swapped; SKILL.md frontmatter parses as strict YAML and both bundled assets (object-model reference + example .jsx scripts) exist. A/B test asked both arms to write an Illustrator ExtendScript that flags every text frame containing DRAFT with a Review Red spot color: skill and base arms both produced fully correct ES3 code with proper DOM usage (SpotColor/CMYKColor, textRange.characterAttributes.fillColor, try-catch, single alert) and identical runtime behavior, so the skill matched but did not beat a strong baseline. Note the full workflow needs Adobe Illustrator to execute; grading here was on generated-script correctness only, since no Illustrator runtime is available in this environment.
