What is it?
ai-agent-skills is a command-line package for installing and managing skills for AI coding agents. Skills are folders of instructions that an agent loads on demand. Running npx ai-agent-skills installs a skill into the default global target (~/.claude/skills/) or into a project directory (.agents/skills/), and it also works with several legacy agent-specific targets such as Cursor, Codex and Gemini.
Beyond installing, the package lets you build your own library. A managed workspace organizes skills into shelves such as frontend, backend, mobile, workflow and agent engineering, and records provenance and a reason for each entry. Skills can be kept as local house copies or cataloged as metadata that installs from the upstream repository when requested. It also supports bulk import of an existing flat folder of skills.
The repository bundles the author's curated library of about 140 skills, including a Swift and Apple-platform collection and a marketing pack, along with a terminal browser for browsing them.
Key features
- 01Installs skills globally or per project with a single npx command.
- 02Organizes skills into shelves and collections with recorded sources and reasons.
- 03Supports both local house copies and upstream-cataloged skills.
- 04Bulk-imports existing skill folders and classifies them into shelves.
- 05Includes a terminal UI for browsing, plus commands for syncing, validating and uninstalling.
Use cases
- Setting up a shared skills library for a team's AI coding agents.
- Installing a curated set of Swift or iOS skills into Claude Code or Cursor.
- Bootstrapping a private skills repository from an existing folder of skills.
- Browsing and comparing upstream skill repositories before installing from them.
Quick start
- 1
