Skill Repos

External Skill Repositories

Skillet can aggregate skills from any git repo that contains SKILL.md files. The repos below are included as default [[suggest]] entries -- skillet discovers them automatically on startup. No manual configuration needed.

Adding additional repos

If you need a repo that isn't in the default set:

# As a CLI flag (one-time)
skillet search react --remote https://github.com/org/skills.git --subdir skills

# In config (persistent)
```toml
# ~/.config/skillet/config.toml
[repos]
remote = ["https://github.com/org/skills.git"]

When to suggest adding a repo

If the user asks about a topic and search_skills returns no results, check this list for coverage gaps. The default suggest set covers most common development domains.
