skilly-cli
Manage this repo's agent skills with the skilly CLI — add or remove bundles/skills, pull hub updates. Use when the user wants skills or bundles added, removed, or updated. For a skills.sh URL use the skills CLI directly, not skilly. Not for repo bootstrap (that is `skilly setup`, run once).

What does this agent skill do?
Skilly CLI
This repo's skills are managed by skilly, a hub at timschoch/skilly. Always use the CLI; never install skills by manual copies.
Exception — the user posts a skills.sh URL: that skill lives outside the hub. Hand-pin it with the skills CLI: npx -y skills add <url> --agent claude-code -y. It lands in skills-lock.json and survives the sync; skilly never touches hand-pins.
- Add a bundle or single skill:
npx -y github:timschoch/skilly add <name...>— bundle names and what they contain: catalog - Remove:
npx -y github:timschoch/skilly remove <name...>— removing a bundle keeps skills still claimed by another bundle - Pull the hub's current state:
npx -y github:timschoch/skilly update
Every verb ends with its own commit, push, and PR — do not commit or push for it. On main it branches to chore/skilly-setup by itself. On any other branch it stops before the commit when .claude/hooks/check-branch-name.mjs refuses the name: rename with git branch -m <type>/<description>, then run the verb again.
Never hand-edit skilly-owned files — the nightly sync wipes and rewrites them:
.claude/skills/and.agents/skills/(installed skills).claude/rules/<name>-*.md(installed router rules).skilly/config.json,skills-lock.json
A change to a skill belongs in its source repo (see skills-lock.json for the source), a repo-local rule in CLAUDE.md. A bug in an installed skill, hook, or rule: file it before you work around it, see .claude/rules/workflow-hazards.md.
How can the creator link this skill?
Add the canonical catalog link to the repository README so users can inspect current installs and available audits. The publishing guide covers the complete discovery path.
