What is it?

Skills Manager keeps a central library of AI agent skills and deploys them to the coding tools that use them. Skills can be installed from Git repositories, local folders, .zip or .skill archives, or the skills.sh marketplace, and each agent gets its own global workspace showing what it actually sees, including skills installed outside the app.

Skills are organized into presets that activate or deactivate a group of skills for an agent with one click. Project workspaces let you compare project-local skill folders with the central library and sync changes in either direction. Deployment works through symlinks or copies, and update tracking checks Git-based skills for upstream changes.

The app also backs the library up to a Git remote, such as a private GitHub repository, and syncs it across devices with skill-level merging. It ships a CLI built on the same core, and it can publish a `manage-skills` skill so agents can install and deploy skills through the app.

Key features

  • 01Install skills from Git repos, local folders, archives, or the skills.sh marketplace into one central library.
  • 02Group skills into presets and toggle them for an agent in one click.
  • 03Global and project workspaces show what each agent sees and sync changes both ways.
  • 04Deploy skills to supported tools via symlink or copy, with update tracking for Git-based skills.
  • 05Back up the library to a Git remote and sync across devices with skill-aware merging.
  • 06Ships a CLI with JSON output for scripts and agents.

Use cases

  • Keeping the same set of skills consistent across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and other agents.
  • Switching between skill sets per project using presets and project workspaces.
  • Syncing a skill library across multiple computers through a private Git repository.
  • Letting coding agents install or deploy skills through the CLI.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install on macOS with Homebrew

    brew install --cask skills-manager
  2. 2

    Clone the repository and install dependencies

    npm install
  3. 3

    Run the desktop app in development mode

    npm run tauri:dev

Things to know

  • Development setup requires Node.js 20.19+ or 22.12+, Rust 1.77.2+, and Tauri prerequisites for your OS.
  • Backup and multi-device sync need a Git remote, and GitHub sign-in creates a private repository for you.
