skill-installer

To install Codex skills from a GitHub repository, run the script with the repo path and skill location. It downloads the repository via sparse-checkout and copies valid SKILL directories into CODEX_HOME/skills. You need network access and the built-in Python toolchain.

Yes, you can list available curated skills. Running the list script fetches the official curated index from the GitHub API and displays which skills are currently installed in your CODEX_HOME/skills directory.

Installing skills from private GitHub repositories works by providing token support. The script accesses private repos using your token, downloads the specified path, and copies the valid SKILL directories into your local skills folder.

To avoid overwriting existing installations, the install script automatically skips any skills already present. It copies valid SKILL directories into CODEX_HOME/skills and checks for existing folders to prevent duplicate or overwritten installations.

Yes, you need to restart Codex after installing new skills from a curated list. The installation script copies the files into the skills directory, but Codex must be restarted to pick up and recognize the newly added skills.

Yes, you can customize the destination and Git ref when installing from a URL. The install script supports optional ref arguments for specific branches and destination customization to control where the skill is copied within CODEX_HOME/skills.
