skills-manager-cli

skills-manager-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jiweiyeah/Skills-Manager. It costs 151 tokens per session (2,934 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command-line guide for Skills Manager, a desktop tool that keeps one shared copy of coding-agent skills and links it to several AI coding tools. It covers setup, adopting skills, enabling or disabling them, and repairing links.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it from a terminal, SSH session, or CI job to initialize the shared skill hub, manage enabled skills, and check synchronization.
Why use it?
It removes the need to install and update the same skill separately for each supported coding tool.

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

skills-manager-cli 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 9d ago.

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.

Skills Manager CLI (skm)

New here? This skill drives skm, the command-line tool that ships with Skills Manager — a desktop app (macOS / Windows / Linux) that installs one copy of a skill into a central hub and symlinks it into every AI coding tool you use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, and ~30 more), so you write a skill once and it shows up everywhere.

If you found this skill on ClawHub but don't have Skills Manager yet, that is the missing piece: skm is not a standalone binary you npm install. Get it by installing the app from the official website (then Settings → Command Line Tool, or run skm init), or grab a skm-<target>.tar.gz / .zip from the GitHub Releases page. Source and docs: https://github.com/jiweiyeah/skills-manager.

skm is the terminal front-end of Skills Manager. It reads and writes the same ~/.skills-manager/config.json and the same hub/tool symlinks as the desktop app, so GUI and CLI are interchangeable.

It does not create, edit, search, translate, tag, or marketplace-install skills. Those stay in the GUI (or you write files into the hub yourself, then skm enable).

Preconditions

  1. Resolve the binary. Prefer skm on PATH. If missing, say so and point at install: the Skills Manager app (Settings → Command Line Tool), or a release archive skm-<target>.tar.gz / .zip from GitHub Releases. Do not fall back to npx skills — that is a different, unrelated CLI.
  2. Confirm with skm --version. A stale binary from an older app release should be updated from Settings or a matching release.
  3. Every command except init requires an initialized config. If stderr says so, run skm init --json once — it is idempotent and will not clobber an existing config. skm init and Settings → Install CLI also copy this companion skill into the hub and enable it for every currently active tool, so you usually do not need to install it by hand.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
