Commands Used

# Determine installation location
SKILL_DIR="${SKILL_INSTALL_LOCATION:-workspace}"
if [ "$SKILL_DIR" = "workspace" ]; then
  TARGET="$HOME/.claude/skills"
else
  TARGET=".claude/skills"
fi

# Check for existing skills in BOTH locations
get_installed_skills() {
  # Check workspace skills
  if [ -d "$HOME/.claude/skills" ]; then
    for dir in "$HOME/.claude/skills"/*; do
      if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
        basename "$dir"
      fi
    done
  fi

  # Check project skills
  if [ -d ".claude/skills" ]; then
    for dir in ".claude/skills"/*; do
      if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
        basename "$dir"
      fi
    done
  fi
}

INSTALLED_SKILLS=$(get_installed_skills)

# Search SkillsMP API
curl -X GET "https://skillsmp.com/api/v1/skills/ai-search?q=<encoded_query>" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SKILLSMP_API_KEY"

# Check if skill already exists before installing
skill_name="example-skill"
if echo "$INSTALLED_SKILLS" | grep -qx "$skill_name"; then
  echo "✓ $skill_name already installed, skipping"

  mkdir -p "$TARGET"
  git clone <repo_url> "$TARGET/$skill_name"

Example Workflow

Given project context:

{
  "languages": ["go"],
  "frameworks": ["graphql"]
}

Actions:

1. Search SkillsMP: Go development best practices performance testing
2. Search SkillsMP: GraphQL schema design resolver patterns
3. Review top 3 results from each search
4. Filter out already installed skills
5. Install up to 5 most relevant skills
6. Report what was installed

Skill Selection Criteria

When reviewing search results, prioritize skills with:

• High star count on GitHub (community approval)
• Recent updates (actively maintained)
• Clear descriptions matching the use case
• Relevant tags to detected technologies
• Good documentation (README, examples)

Safety Rules

• Max 5 new skills per auto-skills run (avoid bloat)
• Never overwrite existing skills
• Always report what was installed and why
• Skip if SKILLSMP_API_KEY is not set
• Validate skill structure before installing (must have SKILL.md)
• Check for malware in skill code before installing

Transparency

After installing, always output:

## Auto Skills Complete
