List Skills

/list-skills — Skill Discovery

TL;DR: Show all available skills across project and global scopes.

Usage

/list-skills                # List all skills (project + global)
/list-skills --scope=project  # Only project skills (.claude/skills/)
/list-skills --scope=global   # Only global skills (~/.claude/skills/)
/list-skills --all          # Include experimental skills

Scope Hierarchy

Override rule: If same skill name exists in both scopes, project version wins.

Execution

1. PARSE flags:
   scope_filter = PARSE --scope flag (default: "all")
   include_experimental = PARSE --all flag (default: false)

2. COLLECT skills:
   skills = []

   # Global skills first (lower priority)
   IF scope_filter IN ["all", "global"]:
       FOR EACH path IN Glob("~/.claude/skills/*/SKILL.md"):
           IF "_experimental" IN path AND NOT include_experimental:
               CONTINUE
           skill = PARSE_SKILL(path)
           skill.scope = "global"
           skills.push(skill)

   # Project skills second (higher priority, override global)
   IF scope_filter IN ["all", "project"]:
       FOR EACH path IN Glob(".claude/skills/*/SKILL.md"):
           IF "_experimental" IN path AND NOT include_experimental:
               CONTINUE
           skill = PARSE_SKILL(path)
           skill.scope = "project"

           # Check for override
           existing = skills.find(s => s.name == skill.name)
           IF existing:
               existing.overridden = true
               skill.overrides = existing.name

           skills.push(skill)

3. PARSE_SKILL(path):
   content = Read(path)
   frontmatter = EXTRACT YAML between ---
   RETURN {
       name: frontmatter.name,
       description: frontmatter.description,
       version: frontmatter.version,
       path: path,
       scope: null  # set by caller
   }

Output Format

**Total**: 3 project + 2 global = 5 skills

### Overrides
| Project Skill | Overrides Global |

| /meta | ~/.claude/skills/meta |

Scope Indicators

Notes

• Skills in _experimental/ hidden by default (use --all)
• Project skills take precedence over global with same name
• Use /skill-check <name> to validate any skill
• Use /skill-farm to create or improve skills
