# Domains skill

> Teach agents to attach and verify domains in Datum Cloud projects using datumctl.

The Domains skill helps agents manage [domain](/domain-dns/domains) resources in Datum Cloud — attaching domains to projects, retrieving verification tokens (DNS record or HTTP token), and applying changes idempotently. It teaches agents the correct workflow: apply the manifest, then check `status.verification` for the challenge before confirming ownership.

## Install

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Claude Code theme={null}
  /plugin marketplace add datum-cloud/skills
  /plugin install datum-cloud@datum-cloud
  ```

  ```bash npx skills theme={null}
  npx skills add https://github.com/datum-cloud/skills
  ```

  ```bash Cursor theme={null}
  # Settings → Rules → Add Rule → Remote Rule (GitHub)
  # Repository: datum-cloud/skills
  ```
</CodeGroup>

<Note>
  Once installed, the skill activates automatically when you ask an agent to work with Domains on Datum. No further configuration needed.
</Note>
