skillet

Universal skills installer for CLI tools

Fetches skills from the Skills.sh ecosystem and installs them to Claude Code, Qwen Code, Gemini CLI, Aider, OpenAI Codex, and Cursor in one shot. Includes migration between tools, versioned snapshots, and A/B testing.

Quick Start

npx skillet find react
npx skillet install react-best-practices

Or install globally:

npm i -g skillet
skillet install web-design-guidelines
skillet list

How It Works

Skills are .md files. Each tool reads them from its own ~/.<tool>/skills/ directory. Skillet detects everything on your system and installs to all of them at once.
