Built on the open Agent Skills standard, so it works in every app that supports Agent Skills.
DSCODEAbout Skill Flow
What it does
Skill Flow installs, manages and shares Agent Skills across many coding agents from one place. Instead of copying skills folder by folder into each agent, you import a source once, keep the whole group together, pick the skills you want, and deploy them to several agents at the same time. Sources can be local folders, GitHub repositories or shortcuts, or entries from skills.sh. It tracks what you intend and what is actually installed in separate state files, so you always know the current state and can update sources cleanly or repair drift. It ships as a command-line tool with an interactive TUI, and as a macOS desktop app.
What is inside
- Grouped source management for local, Git and skills.sh sources through one import model
- Multi-agent deployment to a large built-in target list in one action
- State tracking with a manifest for what you want and a lock file for what is installed
- Search across installed skills, built-in catalogs and skills.sh
- Repair and diagnosis commands:
doctor,repair-source,repair-stateandrepair-targets - A macOS desktop app and a machine-readable bridge protocol for tooling
Works with
It deploys skills to every major coding agent that supports the format, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf, Cline, Amp, Kiro, Goose and more.
How to install
npm install -g skill-flow
skill-flow --helpMaintenance and safety
The project is Apache-2.0 licensed and actively maintained, with the CLI published to npm and the desktop app released as source. State lives under ~/.skillflow/, and target directories are treated as generated output rather than the source of truth, so you should not hand-edit deployed skill files. The desktop release is ad-hoc signed, so on macOS you may need to clear the quarantine attribute on first launch. Review any skills you import, since Skill Flow deploys them but does not vet their contents.
Who should use it
It suits people who run more than one coding agent, or who install many skills, and want them kept in sync from a single tool. If you only use one agent and a few skills, installing them directly is simpler.
Pros
- Deploys one skill set to many agents at once
- Explicit state with manifest, lock and repair tools
- CLI plus a macOS desktop app
Cons
- Does not vet the skills it deploys
- Desktop app is ad-hoc signed, needing a Gatekeeper workaround
