Guide · public documentation

Every host below reads the current skills from the repository’s canonical skills/ directory. Only the discovery path changes between hosts.

The open skills CLI installs into every agent it supports:

Terminal window
npx skills add svyatov/oss-kit

One skill at a time:

Terminal window
npx skills add svyatov/oss-kit --skill oss-readme

Kimi Code CLI, OpenCode, and Antigravity have no manifest of ours to read. Each of them finds skills by scanning a directory in your project, such as .agents/skills/ or .claude/skills/, and this command is what puts the skills there.

Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, and VS Code

Section titled “Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, and VS Code”

All three read .claude-plugin/plugin.json, whose skills field defaults to skills/.

In Claude Code or Copilot CLI:

/plugin marketplace add svyatov/oss-kit
/plugin install oss-kit@oss-kit

In VS Code, run Chat: Install Plugin From Source and enter https://github.com/svyatov/oss-kit.

Reads .codex-plugin/plugin.json. Codex CLI 0.122 or later:

Terminal window
codex plugin marketplace add svyatov/oss-kit

Reads .cursor-plugin/plugin.json. Cursor has no CLI or slash command for installing a plugin. Install it through the Customize panel inside Cursor, or from cursor.com/marketplace. A team admin can add it from the Dashboard, under Plugins, Add Marketplace, Import from Repo.

Kimi Code CLI has no manifest of ours. It finds skills by scanning .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/, so the skills CLI at the top of this page is the install path.

Scans .opencode/skills/, .claude/skills/, and .agents/skills/. The skills CLI above is the install path.

Installs the skills directory directly, with no manifest:

Terminal window
gemini skills install https://github.com/svyatov/oss-kit.git --path skills

Scans .agents/skills/ by default. The skills CLI above is the install path.

The skills are plain Markdown with YAML frontmatter, so any agent that reads instruction files can use them. Copy skills/ where your agent looks, or use the skills CLI above.
