# Agent Skill

> Let your agent read the official LangSearch installation guide.

Paste this prompt into your agent:

```text wrap theme={null}
Read https://langsearch.com/install/skill.md and follow the instructions to install the LangSearch skill for my agent.
```

The installation guide is hosted at [langsearch.com/install/skill.md](https://langsearch.com/install/skill.md). Let your agent read it and follow the setup instructions for its environment.

## Before you start

Have a LangSearch API key available from your [Dashboard](https://langsearch.com/dashboard). Keep the key private and provide it only through the configuration requested by your trusted local tool.

## Skill or MCP?

The Skill provides installation and usage instructions for your agent. [MCP](/integrations/mcp) connects a supported client to the hosted LangSearch server. For a direct application integration, use the [Web Search API](/reference/search-api-guide).
