FAQPage Schema
How do I distribute SKILL.md files across multiple AI agents on my machine?

Distributing SKILL.md files across multiple AI agents is done by running a single install command. The tool auto-detects all AI agents on the host machine and pushes the skills to them, ensuring consistent availability without manual configuration for each agent.

What is the best way to sync skills from a GitHub repo to all local AI agents?

Syncing skills from a GitHub repo to local AI agents is handled by the update and sync lifecycle commands. You can point the CLI tool to a GitHub repo, git URL, or local path, and it will synchronize the skill files across all detected agents.

Does my SKILL.md file need specific formatting to distribute it to AI agents?

Your SKILL.md file requires YAML frontmatter containing both a name and description to be distributed to AI agents. It also supports optional scripts, references, and assets directories if you need extended functionality alongside the core skill file.

Can I manage project-local skills instead of globally installing them to all agents?

You can manage project-local skills instead of globally installing them. The tool supports both global installation to shared directories and project-local scopes, allowing you to control whether skills are available machine-wide or restricted to a specific project.

How do I remove or restore skills across all detected AI coding agents?

Removing or restoring skills across detected AI coding agents is done using the remove and restore lifecycle commands. These actions allow you to cleanly uninstall skills from all agents or restore them to a previous synchronized state.

Why are my local skill updates not showing up in all my AI agents?

Local skill updates may not show up in all AI agents if they have not been synced recently. You must run the update command to push the latest changes from your local paths or GitHub repositories to all automatically detected agents on the host machine.
