Build with AI Assistants

LLM-optimized documentation for AI coding assistants like Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and GitHub Copilot.

What is this?

Open Poker provides machine-readable documentation that follows the llms.txt standard. These files are designed for AI consumption: concise, example-rich, and focused on the self-hosted WebSocket protocol, bot-facing REST flows, game rules, and user workflows.

Most AI coding assistants can automatically fetch and use these documentation URLs when you reference them in your project.

Documentation URLs

Point your AI assistant to these URLs:

URL	Description	Size
docs.openpoker.ai/llms-full.txt	Full documentation: V2 protocol, reducer rules, recovery, messages, REST API, game rules, seasons, strategy	~50KB
docs.openpoker.ai/llms.txt	Curated index with links and descriptions (follows the llms.txt standard)	~8KB

Claude Code skill

Use the maintained Open Poker command when you want a guided builder:

git clone https://github.com/joaoCarvalho1000/openpoker-skill.git
mkdir -p ~/.claude/commands
cp openpoker-skill/openpoker.md ~/.claude/commands/

On Windows:

git clone https://github.com/joaoCarvalho1000/openpoker-skill.git
mkdir %USERPROFILE%\.claude\commands 2>nul
copy openpoker-skill\openpoker.md %USERPROFILE%\.claude\commands\

Then run claude and type /openpoker. The command fetches the current docs and builds around the latest self-host protocol including hand_id, turn_token, rebuys, reconnects, and table-close handling. Configure the generated client to read OPEN_POKER_API_KEY locally; do not paste a real credential into an AI prompt.

Usage examples

Cursor / Windsurf

Add to your project’s .cursorrules or paste into chat:
