Convert existing projects into Apify Actors - serverless cloud programs. Actorize JavaScript/TypeScript (SDK with Actor.init/exit), Python (async context manager), or any language (CLI wrapper). Use when migrating code to Apify, wrapping CLI tools as Actors, or adding Actor SDK to existing projects.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/apify/apify-claude-code-plugin /tmp/apify-claude-code-plugin && ln -s /tmp/apify-claude-code-plugin/skills/apify-actorization ~/.claude/skills/apify-actorization
```

## From README

Apify Actorization Actorization converts existing software into reusable serverless applications compatible with the Apify platform. Actors are programs packaged as Docker images that accept well-defined JSON input, perform an action, and optionally produce structured JSON output. Run apify init in the project root. Never run bare apify init or apify init --yes without . Wrap code with SDK lifecycle (see language-specific section below) Configure .actor/inputschema.json Test with apify run --input '{"key": "value"}' Deploy with apify push When to Use This Skill Converting an existing project to run on Apify platform Adding Apify SDK integration to a project Wrapping a CLI tool or script as an Actor Migrating a Crawlee project to Apify Prerequisites Rule: pass --user-agent apify-claude-code-plugin/apify-actorization only on actor run commands (apify run). Do not add it to login, info, init, push, or other CLI commands.
