ui

A local web dashboard for managing coding-agent skills, which are reusable instructions or abilities for an AI coding tool. It opens in your browser at a local address.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to manage skills, targets, and syncing; browse and install skills; or share a dashboard view with teammates. It can run in the foreground or as a background server.
Why use it?
It gives you visual controls for tasks that can be difficult to remember as command-line options. It also shows security-audit findings in a report.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 2,915 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ui scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 277 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ui

Launch the web dashboard for visual skill management.

skillshare ui                  # Run in the foreground
skillshare ui start            # Start (or reuse) a background server
skillshare ui stop             # Stop the background server

Opens http://127.0.0.1:19420 in your default browser.

Modes

Mode Behavior
skillshare ui (default) Runs the UI server in the foreground; Ctrl+C stops it
skillshare ui start Starts the UI server as a background process and returns control to the shell. Re-running start reuses the existing process if it's still healthy
skillshare ui stop Stops the background UI server started by skillshare ui start

When to Use

  • Manage skills, targets, and sync through a visual web interface
  • Browse and install skills without memorizing CLI flags
  • Run security audits with a visual findings report
  • Share a dashboard view with team members less comfortable with CLI

Flags

Flag Default Description
-p, --project Run in project mode (uses .skillshare/)
-g, --global Run in global mode (uses ~/.config/skillshare/)
--port <port> 19420 HTTP server port
--host <host> 127.0.0.1 Bind address (use 0.0.0.0 for Docker)
-b, --base-path <path> Sub-path for reverse proxy (e.g., /skillshare)
--no-open false Don't open browser automatically
--app false Open the dashboard as a desktop-style Chromium app window when available (start mode only)
--clear-cache In the foreground form: clear cached UI assets and exit. Combined with start: clear cache, then start in the background

:::tip Auto-Detection If .skillshare/config.yaml exists in the current directory, the dashboard automatically starts in project mode. Use -g to force global mode. :::

Examples

# Default: opens browser on localhost:19420 (foreground)
skillshare ui

# Project mode (manage .skillshare/ skills)
skillshare ui -p

# Custom port
skillshare ui --port 8080

# Docker / remote access
skillshare ui --host 0.0.0.0 --no-open

# Start in the background and return to the shell
skillshare ui start

# Start as a chrome-less desktop-style app window
skillshare ui start --app

# Stop the background server (uses the remembered host/port)
skillshare ui stop

# Clear the cached UI assets, then start fresh in the background
skillshare ui start --clear-cache

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

ui is a command published in the GitHub repository runkids/skillshare (2,597 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,915 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
