Higgsfield's help centre (1 August 2026) explains CLI + Skills, its route for coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex: installed with one npx command and signed in without an API key, it adds three structured skills (generate, soul, product-photoshoot) with lower token overhead than MCP, on the same account and plan credits, with no Unlimited or free generations.

What is said

★ — how much it matters to the source.

  • ★★★ Higgsfield's CLI + Skills connects Higgsfield to coding agents: Higgsfield MCP is a full connection for chat agents exposing all tools with free parameter choice, while each CLI skill has a defined structure that cuts token overhead and gives consistent output. · Higgsfield CLI, Higgsfield MCP, agentic AI
  • ★★ Using Higgsfield through the CLI falls under the Developer Terms of Higgsfield's Terms of Use: the user keeps the session secure and is responsible for what a coding agent generates through the account. · Higgsfield CLI
  • ★★★ Higgsfield CLI + Skills and Higgsfield MCP both use the same Higgsfield account and plan credits with no API key (API keys belong to the separate Higgsfield API), and Unlimited models and free generations apply to neither. · Higgsfield CLI, Higgsfield MCP, Higgsfield API, Higgsfield Unlimited, credit
  • ★★★ Higgsfield advises Higgsfield MCP for chat agents such as Claude on the web, and CLI + Skills for coding agents such as Claude Code or Cursor. · Higgsfield MCP, Higgsfield CLI, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor
  • ★★ Setting up Higgsfield CLI + Skills starts with running "npx skills add higgsfield-ai/skills", which installs three skills: generate, soul and product-photoshoot. · Higgsfield CLI, Soul
  • ★★ After installing the Higgsfield skills, the user signs in to the CLI by running "higgsfield auth login", with no API key. · Higgsfield CLI
  • ★★ To generate with Higgsfield CLI + Skills, the user calls /higgsfield:generate in the coding agent or says "Generate an image with Higgsfield", and the agent picks the skill and runs it. · Higgsfield CLI
  • ★ Higgsfield CLI + Skills works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and other agents that support Skills or MCP. · Higgsfield CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex
  • ★★ The generate skill of Higgsfield CLI makes images and video from any Higgsfield model (Soul, Nano Banana Pro for images; Seedance, Kling, Veo for video) up to 4K; the agent picks the model unless the user names one. · Higgsfield CLI, Soul, Nano Banana Pro, Seedance, Kling, Veo
  • ★★ The soul skill of Higgsfield CLI trains a Soul character from photos, handling the upload, training and naming. · Higgsfield CLI, Soul, Soul ID
  • ★★ The product-photoshoot skill of Higgsfield CLI turns a product link or images into studio-quality product shots and video ads, for physical products and apps. · Higgsfield CLI
  • ★★ The video presets of the product-photoshoot skill are UGC, Tutorial, Unboxing, Hyper Motion, Product Review, TV Spot, Wild Card, UGC Virtual Try On and Pro Virtual Try On. · Higgsfield CLI, UGC
  • ★★ CLI Skills and Supercomputer Skills are two separate Higgsfield systems with the same name: CLI Skills are installed with npx for coding agents, Supercomputer Skills are built-in functions called with "/" in the Supercomputer chat, and they are not interchangeable. · Higgsfield CLI, Supercomputer
  • ★★ Earlier Higgsfield CLI versions had an issue passing references; Higgsfield advises updating by re-running "npx skills add higgsfield-ai/skills", since current versions pass all references, images included. · Higgsfield CLI
  • ★ Generations made through Higgsfield CLI land in the user's Assets on higgsfield.ai, like web and MCP generations. · Higgsfield CLI, Higgsfield MCP
