How to install portable skills

Two ways in: install the whole pack once with the skills CLI, or copy one skill from a companion page. Then put the folder where your host’s first-party doc says.

Install the pack once.

From a terminal:

npx skills@latest add iruhdam1/skills

That is the one install-once command on the hub. It pulls the public pack. After that, skip a second download of the same skill.

Get one skill from the companion.

Open Browse skills, choose a pack, then Get skill. On the companion page, copy the prompt or download the file. You can also open the GitHub folder for that pack and take the zip.

Where each host loads skills.

Only paths named on the vendor’s own page. Other agents listed on agentskills.io (Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and the rest) — use their doc, not a Tiny Design Shop walkthrough.

Checks the official docs name.
