npx claude-skills add <skill> installs any skill from the library into
the detected AI assistant in one command. Auto-detects Claude Code,
Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, Aider, Goose via
marker files. Pure Node.js (18+), no Python required for end users.
Commands: list, search, info, add, create, update, remove.
Adds:
- scripts/build_manifest.py: stdlib-only Python that walks domain
folders and emits cli/skills.json (229 skills, 12 domains indexed)
- cli/: npm package with commander + kleur, 10 passing tests
- .github/workflows/build-manifest.yml: regenerates manifest on
SKILL.md changes, auto-commits
- .github/workflows/publish-cli.yml: publishes to npm on cli-v* tag,
supports dry_run via workflow_dispatch
The prompt now explicitly instructs the AI to:
- Provide the complete skill definition in a ready-to-copy code block
- Never say "paste from above" or "scroll up"
- Auto-detect the platform (Claude.ai vs ChatGPT vs other)
- Give exact step-by-step instructions with the actual text to paste
- Include a real test prompt from the skill's workflows
Every skill page now has two copy-paste options:
- **Try in Chat** (Quick) -- condensed prompt for instant one-off use
in any AI chat. No setup needed.
- **Add to My AI** (Full Skill) -- complete SKILL.md content with
step-by-step instructions for the AI to help create a persistent
Claude Project or Custom GPT. The AI walks the user through setup
on their specific platform.
Both prompts are auto-generated from each SKILL.md. The "Add to My AI"
prompt includes the full skill definition so the created project has
complete expertise, workflows, templates, and frameworks.
Every skill page now has a "Quick Start" tab (default) with a one-click
"Copy Prompt" button. Users can paste the generated prompt directly into
claude.ai, ChatGPT, or any AI chat to get that skill's expertise
instantly -- no repo setup, no CLI, no configuration needed.
- Auto-generates condensed prompts from each SKILL.md
- Prompt includes key capabilities, frameworks, and guidance
- Copy button with visual feedback (turns green on copy)
- Scrollable preview of the full prompt
- "Quick Start" is the default tab on all 244 skill pages
