Manage agent “skills” from GitHub repos: browse, install, sync updates, uninstall, and apply them to your projects individually.

Features

• Browse skills in a repo with an interactive TUI (search + multi-select)
• Install selected skills pinned to a commit (reproducible installs)
• Sync a trusted source to install missing skills and update installed ones
• Browse installed skills and uninstall them from a TUI
• Apply installed skills to supported agents (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Cursor, Goose, OpenCode, Codex)

Installation

Requirements: git and an interactive terminal.

macOS (Homebrew):

brew tap philipesteiff/tap
brew install skill

macOS (curl installer):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/philipesteiff/skill/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

From source (any OS with Rust):

Usage

Skill scans SKILL.md files recursively, including repository root (for single-skill repos).

Browse a repo and install skills:

skill browse owner/repo

Browse installed skills and uninstall (select skills → Enter):

skill browse

Sync updates:

# sync all configured sources
skill sync

# sync one source by id (first browse trusts a source and saves an id)
skill sync @owner-repo

Apply installed skills to agent directories (TUI):

skill apply

Applied skills are copied as real folders (not sym
