yolo plugin
Agent skills for Ultralytics YOLO and Platform: model selection, dataset annotation, training, tuning, inference, export, and deployment through the Platform web UI, the Python package, and the yolo and ul CLIs.
How to install the yolo plugin
Run both commands inside Claude Code. The first adds the marketplace once; the second installs the plugin.
/plugin marketplace add ultralytics/skills

Claude loads it when the task matches- platform-cli
Use when operating Ultralytics Platform from a terminal or script with the ul cloud CLI (ul cloud RESOURCE OPERATION key=value, PyPI package ultralytics-platform) — listing, creating, updating, cloning, or moving projects, datasets, and models; inspecting dataset images, statistics, metadata, duplicates, and similar images; starting and monitoring cloud training runs; per-image model validation analysis; downloading weights; exports, deployments, uploads, trash and restore, storage integrations, and account usage, storage, and billing; and building Agents (YOLO, LLM, gate, and alert workflows). For the Platform web UI or local yolo commands, see yolo; for choosing what to train and how to improve it, see yolo-training and yolo-tuning.
- yolo
Use for ANY task involving Ultralytics Platform, the ultralytics Python package, yolo CLI, YOLO model weights (.pt), dataset annotation, training, validation, prediction, tracking, export, deployment, or the detect / segment / semantic / depth / classify / pose / OBB vision tasks.
- yolo-datasets
Use when uploading, annotating, building, converting, analyzing, or debugging datasets in Ultralytics Platform or local YOLO — Platform dataset management and Smart Annotation, data.yaml, YOLO label .txt formats, COCO/DOTA/mask conversion, auto-labeling, splits, validation, and errors like "no labels found" or mAP near 0. Covers detect, segment, semantic, depth, classify, pose, and OBB data.
- yolo-export
Use when exporting or deploying Ultralytics YOLO models in Platform or code — the Platform Export tab and yolo export/model.export() for ONNX, TensorRT, CoreML, Core AI, OpenVINO, LiteRT, NCNN, ExecuTorch, and NPUs (RKNN, QNN, Hailo, Ascend, IMX, Axelera, DeepX, Xilinx, NXP), FP16/INT8 quantization, benchmarking, and non-Python runtimes. For inference with .pt weights or Platform endpoints, see yolo-inference.
- yolo-inference
Use when testing, running, or deploying Ultralytics YOLO inference in Platform or code on images, video, webcams, or streams — Platform Predict and dedicated endpoints, model.predict()/yolo predict, Results API boxes/masks/keypoints, persistent tracking, annotated video, and Solutions such as counting, heatmaps, speed, queues, and parking. For optimized runtime exports, see yolo-export.
- yolo-models
Use when choosing or comparing Ultralytics models in Platform or code — picking a model family (YOLO26/YOLO11/YOLOv8, YOLO-World, YOLOE, SAM/SAM2/FastSAM, RT-DETR, YOLO-NAS), size (n/s/m/l/x), task variant (-seg, -sem, -cls, -pose, -obb, -depth), pretrained checkpoint, open-vocabulary or promptable detection/segmentation, custom architecture, Platform Explore, or exact weight names and availability.
- yolo-training
Use when training, fine-tuning, or validating Ultralytics YOLO models in Platform, cloud GPUs, or local code — model.train(), yolo train/val, remote metric streaming, epochs, batch, imgsz, devices, augmentation, multi-GPU, resumes, results, and fixing OOM, NaN loss, low mAP, or overfitting. For hyperparameter search and systematic improvement loops, see yolo-tuning.
- yolo-tuning
Use when improving or comparing Ultralytics YOLO models in Platform or code, or running hyperparameter search/autotraining — Platform experiment comparison, the systematic improvement playbook, model.tune() genetic evolution, Ray Tune, search spaces, and deciding whether tuning is worthwhile. For one training run and its arguments, see yolo-training.
