Market and trust evidence

Edition not yet matched

No exact skills.sh identity match is available for this repository. Repository adoption and freshness remain visible above; install momentum is not inferred.

Trust analysis is a screening signal, not a security warranty. Read the ranking and trust methodology.

In practice

Written by AI from this repository’s README · high confidence

One command distributes SKILL.md skills to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode and dozens of other agents from GitHub repos, git URLs, local paths or direct downloads, instead of hand-copying files per agent.

Use it when

Use when you want to install, update or discover skills for one or many coding agents, including non-interactive CI/CD installs.

Not the right pick when

Not an agent runtime and not a vetted marketplace; it installs whatever the source repo contains, so review third-party skills before adding them.

Capabilities

  • Install skills from GitHub shorthand, full URLs, GitLab, any git URL or local paths
  • Use a skill once without installing (skills use)
  • Search for skills interactively or by keyword (skills find)
  • Update and remove installed skills
  • Project or global scope, symlink or copy installation
  • Create a new SKILL.md template (skills init)

Requirements

  • Node.js with npx
  • A supported coding agent (OpenCode, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and 72 more)

Cost: Free and open source
