the-controller-synchronizing-skills

To sync custom skills to agent directories, this script creates symbolic links from your Git repository into `~/.claude/skills/` and `~/.codex/skills/custom/`, making new skills immediately discoverable by AI coding assistants.

Automating skill discovery is done by running the sync script from anywhere inside the repository, which resolves the Git root and creates symbolic links to the agent home directories, adding new skills and removing stale links automatically.

Yes, Git is required to resolve the repository root path when symlinking skills into agent custom skill directories, and bash scripting is used to perform the file system operations for creating and managing those links.

When a skill is removed from the repository, the automated sync script handles cleanup by removing stale symbolic links from the agent directories and ensures existing links point to the correct source.

You can use this skill synchronization script for managing custom skill sets for AI agents like Claude Code and Codex, as it handles adding new skills, removing stale links, and updating existing links across agent environments.

Custom skills may not show up in the Claude Code skills directory if the symbolic links are missing or pointing to the wrong source; running the sync script from inside the repo updates and corrects these links.
