git clone https://github.com/autodesk-platform-services/skills.git
cp -r skills/aps-mcp-server-gen ~/.claude/skills/
cp -r skills/acad-arx-wizard ~/.claude/skills/

acad-cuix-builder — one-shot install

One command installs both the skill and CuixBuilder.exe:

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/autodesk-platform-services/skills/main/skills/acad-cuix-builder/install.ps1 | iex

Then in your agent:

/acad-cuix-builder

I need a ribbon tab called "Drafting Tools" with two panels:
  Panel 1 — Annotation: Quick Leader (QLEADER), Mtext (MTEXT)
  Panel 2 — View: Zoom Extents (ZOOM E), Regen (REGEN)
Save to C:\Plugins\DraftingTools.cuix
