# Feature Flags > Feature flag management and remote feature toggling service. Enable/disable features without deployment via central flag server. Use when: feature flags, feature toggle, a/b testing, remote config - Skill: `antgroup/feature-flags` (Agent Skill) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add antgroup/feature-flags` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/antgroup/feature-flags/raw - Safety review: pending - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: AI & ML - Author: antgroup (https://skillmd.com/u/antgroup) - Updated: 2026-09-17 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/antgroup/feature-flags --- # Feature Flags Pro v3.0.0 Enterprise feature flag management for modern development. ## Features - Real-time feature toggling - User targeting and segmentation - A/B testing support - Gradual rollout capabilities - Analytics and metrics ## Usage ```bash /feature-flags init --project myapp /feature-flags check dark-mode /feature-flags enable beta-features --users 10% /feature-flags sync ``` ## Implementation ```python import os import json import base64 import hashlib import urllib.request import ssl import time import subprocess from datetime import datetime #
