SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Installing a skill as published often means accepting a low-quality skill, while improving it first requires a separate manual workflow. This Skill combines both steps: it resolves a target skill, improves a throwaway copy with skill-auto-improver, and installs only the improved result.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Three input forms: Resolve the target from a local path, a GitHub repo, or a catalog skill name via asm search --available.
  • Non-destructive improvement: All edits happen on a mktemp -d copy, so the user's own files and git branches are never modified.
  • Collision-safe install: Probes asm list --json before asm install, since installs overwrite same-named skills without prompting.
  • Provenance reporting: Reports the supplied identifier, resolved URL, upstream commit SHA, and before/after quality scores.
  • Use Case: A user says "install code-review but improve it first" — the Skill resolves the catalog entry, raises its score from 71 to 92, and installs the improved variant to ~/.claude/skills/code-review.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to install an improved version of a named skill, for example by saying "install code-review but improve it first" while specifying the target tool and scope.

Frequently Asked Questions about skill-install-improved

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I install an improved version of an agent skill?▼

Invoke this skill with a skill name, repo URL, or local path, plus the target tool and scope. It resolves the target, runs skill-auto-improver on a temporary copy, then installs the improved directory with asm install.

Does improving a skill before install modify my local files?▼

No. Every input form, including local paths, is copied into a mktemp -d directory before improvement. Your working tree and git branch are never modified; the improvement lands only in the installed copy.

What happens if the skill is already installed under the same name?▼

The skill probes asm list --json before installing because asm install overwrites same-named skills without prompting. On a collision it names the target directory, shows what occupies it, and asks for explicit confirmation or offers a --name alt side-by-side install.

What if the skill already passes the quality gates?▼

If the baseline already clears the 85/8 floor, skill-auto-improver makes no edits and the original skill is installed unchanged. The report states plainly that no improvement was needed rather than showing a fake delta.

When should I not use skill-install-improved?▼

Do not use it for improving a skill in place (use skill-auto-improver), sending improvements upstream as a PR (use skill-upstream-pr), authoring new skills, plain asm install runs, or bulk-improving multiple skills at once.
