Discover, list, create, edit, toggle, copy, move, and delete AI agent skills across 11 tools (Cursor, Claude, Agents, Windsurf, Copilot, Codex, Cline, Aider, Continue, Roo Code, Augment)
You can manage skills and rules for all major AI coding tools directly from the terminal. This skill teaches you the directory layout, file format, and operations for each tool.
Each skill lives in its own subdirectory with a SKILL.md file containing YAML frontmatter.

Plugin skills are cached at ~/.cursor/plugins/cache/<org>/<plugin>/<version>/skills/<name>/SKILL.md. These are managed by Cursor and should not be edited directly.
For directory-based tools (Agents, Cursor, Claude), skills use YAML frontmatter:
