About this quickstart guide
This quickstart guide aims to get you setup for using coding agents (Claude Code, Codex etc.) in UiPath Studio Terminal, utilizing the official UiPath Skills for coding agents.
The guide covers installation and basic setup, but will not go into detail with use cases - that is up for you to discover and share in the Use Cases Repository linked below 
The procedure and links in this guide are subject to change.
Getting the Terminal in UiPath Studio
At the current moment the Terminal in UiPath Studio is limited to the STS (Short Term Support) variant of UiPath Studio Desktop.
You can download and install the STS version here: https://download.uipath.com/UiPathStudioCloud.msi
After installation you will find the Terminal in the bottom panel of Studio by default.
Installing Node Package Manager (NPM)
NPM (Node Package Manager) is required for installation of UiPath Skills and also Codex if you wish to use that specific coding agent.
To install Node Package Manager simply go to the website of Node.js and click install.

Installing UiPath Skills for coding agents
See this forum post for an in-depth description
UiPath skills for coding agents are designed to facilitate the “translation” from the coding agent into UiPath projects using the UiPath CLI as the interface for communication.
To install these skills simply open any Terminal (eg. PowerShell) and first off run this command to install UiPath CLI:
(Requires Node Package Manager - see section above).
npm install -g @uipath/cli
After this you should run the command below to actually install and setup the skills:
uip skills install
You are prompted to select the coding agents you wish to install the skills for, using space bar to select, and enter to install.
Using coding agents in UiPath Studio
To start using the coding agents for developing projects, try creating a blank project in UiPath Studio, open the terminal and type codex or claude to launch your coding agent (depending on which coding agent you have installed).
And now you just start typing 
!!
Simply describe to the agent what you want it to do - develop projects, troubleshoot errors, publish projects etc. only your imagination sets the limits.
Tip: tap Shift + Tab to switch between planning mode and “development mode”.
You might get prompted to make some decisions along the way:
A plan is proposed…
…and its up for you to decide, adapt, reject etc.
Simply communicate with the agent to get the project you wish for
