Reusable skills for AI coding assistants (Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, and more)
Project description
mythril-agent-skills
English | 中文
A unified skill management system for multi-agent AI coding assistants. This toolkit (distributed as a Python package) provides a curated collection of reusable skills plus centralized CLI commands to install, configure, and maintain them across Github Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, Hermes ...
What is a Skill?
A skill is a prompt/instruction bundle that teaches an AI assistant how to handle a specific type of task. Think of it like a specialized tool: it has a name, a triggering description, and detailed instructions.
There are two primary types of skills based on their scope and how they are managed:
| Feature | User-Level Skills (Global) | Project-Level Skills (Local) |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Available across all your projects | Confined to a specific project repository |
| Portability | Reusable across different projects on your machine | Moves with that specific project repository |
| Use Cases | General-purpose tools (e.g., Jira integration, code review, Git operations, Figma) | Project-specific rules (e.g., custom UI guidelines, specific build/deploy steps) |
| Management | Installed in your user home directory (~/.claude/skills, ~/.cursor/skills, etc.) |
Stored inside the project directory (e.g., .claude/skills/, .github/skills/) |
| Version Control | Managed centrally via this toolkit | Committed to the project's Git repository and shared with the team |
How this toolkit fits in
mythril-agent-skills is designed to manage User-Level Skills. It acts as a centralized CLI toolkit to install, configure, and keep your general-purpose skills synchronized across multiple AI coding assistants on your machine.
For Project-Level Skills, you don't need this installer. Instead, we recommend using the included Skill Creator skill. Simply invoke the Skill Creator within your project workspace to scaffold a new project-specific skill, and then commit it directly to your version control system so your entire team can benefit from it.

Quick Start
Use as-is skills:
Option A: Install via pip
If you just want to install and use existing skills, start here. Install it from PyPI — no need to clone the repository:
pip install mythril-agent-skills
To upgrade to the latest version:
pip install -U mythril-agent-skills
This gives you four commands:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
skills-setup |
Interactive installer — select AI tools and skills to install |
skills-cleanup |
Interactive remover — select installed skills to remove |
skills-check |
Dependency checker — verify and configure required CLI tools and API keys |
skills-clean-cache |
Cache cleaner — remove temp files created by skills at runtime |
Install skills:
skills-setup # Interactive: select tools, then skills
skills-setup .cursor # Direct target: skip tool selection
Remove skills:
skills-cleanup
Check dependencies:
skills-check # Interactive: select skills to check
skills-check gh-operations jira figma # Check specific skills
Clean up cached temp files:
skills-clean-cache # Interactive: list cache, confirm before deleting
skills-clean-cache --force # Delete without confirmation
skills-clean-cache --repos # Interactive: select repos to delete
The checker will:
- Launch an interactive UI to select skills (when run without arguments)
- Detect missing CLI tools (e.g.
gh) and offer to install them automatically - Prompt for missing API keys/tokens and save them to your shell config file
- Verify authentication status (e.g.
gh auth status)
Option B: Claude Code plugin marketplace
If you use Claude Code, you can install skills as a plugin marketplace — no pip required. See also: discover and install plugins.
Add the marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add jie-meng/mythril-agent-skills
Install all skills at once:
/plugin install all-skills@mythril-agent-skills
Or install individual skills as needed:
/plugin install figma@mythril-agent-skills
/plugin install jira@mythril-agent-skills
/plugin install github-code-review-pr@mythril-agent-skills
You can use /plugin discover to interactively find and install plugins:
All available plugins

To update later:
/plugin marketplace update mythril-agent-skills
To uninstall a plugin:
/plugin uninstall figma@mythril-agent-skills
To remove the marketplace entirely (also uninstalls all its plugins):
/plugin marketplace remove mythril-agent-skills
Note: This option only installs skills into Claude Code — the CLI commands (
skills-setup,skills-cleanup,skills-clean-cache) are not included. For full toolkit support (multi-tool installation, dependency checking, cache management), use Option A.
Or customize your own skills:
Option C: GitHub fork or independent clone
If you want to customize skills and keep your own repository, you have two equivalent paths:
- GitHub fork (stay linked to upstream on github.com)
- Independent clone (fully detach from upstream, any platform)
Pick one setup below, then follow the shared usage steps after it.
Setup A — GitHub fork (linked to upstream):
# Fork on GitHub, then clone your fork:
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/mythril-agent-skills.git
cd mythril-agent-skills
Setup B — Independent clone (detached from upstream, non-GitHub hosting):
# 1. Clone the original repo
git clone https://github.com/jie-meng/mythril-agent-skills.git
cd mythril-agent-skills
# 2. Detach from upstream (removes .git, creates fresh repo)
python3 scripts/init-fork.py
# 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to push to your new remote
The init script will:
- Delete
.githistory (severs the link to upstream) - Run
git init(empty repo — you make the first commit) - Optionally rename the root directory
Warning: This is a destructive, one-time operation. Run it on a fresh clone only.
Shared usage for both setups:
Run the scripts directly — no installation needed:
python3 scripts/skills-setup.py # Interactive installer
python3 scripts/skills-cleanup.py # Interactive remover
python3 scripts/skills-check.py # Dependency checker
Stay up to date with upstream (optional):
- Setup A (GitHub fork): use GitHub's built-in "Sync fork" button
- Setup B (Independent clone): use the bundled sync script (below)
python3 scripts/sync-upstream.py # Interactive sync
python3 scripts/sync-upstream.py --dry-run # Preview changes only
python3 scripts/sync-upstream.py --force # Apply without confirmation
The sync script only processes skills that exist in upstream. Your custom skills with unique names are never touched — no configuration needed.
Use exclude_skills in .sync-upstream.json only when you need to prevent an upstream skill from being overwritten (e.g., you've modified jira locally, or you want to protect a custom skill name in case upstream adds one with the same name in the future):
{
"exclude_skills": ["jira"]
}
For the full guide, see docs/FORK-SYNC.md.
- Works well when you only add custom skills with unique names — no conflicts
- If you've modified an upstream skill (e.g., customized
jira), you may get merge conflicts that need manual resolution
How the Installer Works
The skills-setup command guides you through two interactive screens:
- Select AI tools — choose which tools to install skills to
- Select skills — choose which skills to install
The skill selection screen shows two sections: Builtin Skills (bundled with the package) and Local Skills (discovered in the current directory). See Installing Local Skills for details.
Select skills to install:
Up/Down move | Space toggle | a all/none | Enter confirm | q quit
[x] Select All / Deselect All
------------------------------------
Builtin Skills (16)
[x] blog-writer
[x] code-review-staged
[x] figma
...
Local Skills (2) [my-skills/]
[x] my-custom-skill
[x] jira (overrides builtin)
18/18 selected
Tools that are not installed on your machine are shown dimmed with [-] markers and cannot be selected.
After installation, skills-check runs automatically for builtin skills that need external dependencies (CLI tools or API tokens). Local skills are excluded from this check — managing their dependencies is the user's responsibility.
Installing Local Skills
skills-setup discovers local skills automatically when you run it from a directory that contains skill subdirectories (any non-hidden subdirectory with a SKILL.md file). This makes it easy to install third-party or custom skill collections you've downloaded:
# Clone a third-party skills repo or your own custom collection
git clone https://github.com/someone/my-custom-skills.git
cd my-custom-skills
# Run skills-setup from inside that directory
skills-setup
The installer scans the current directory's immediate subdirectories and shows any discovered skills in a separate Local Skills section below the builtin ones.
Conflict handling: If a local skill has the same name as a builtin skill, it is highlighted in a distinct color with an (overrides builtin) note. When both are installed, builtin skills are installed first and local skills are installed last — so the local version takes precedence.
Dependency checks: skills-check only runs for builtin skills after installation. For local skills, dependency management (installing required CLI tools, API keys, etc.) is left to the user.
Supported tools and skills paths
All config directories are relative to the user home directory (~ on macOS/Linux, %USERPROFILE% on Windows).
| # | Tool | Skills path |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Copilot CLI / VS Code | ~/.copilot/skills/ |
| 2 | Claude Code | ~/.claude/skills/ |
| 3 | Cursor | ~/.cursor/skills/ |
| 4 | Codex | ~/.codex/skills/ |
| 5 | Gemini CLI | ~/.gemini/skills/ |
| 6 | Qwen CLI | ~/.qwen/skills/ |
| 7 | Opencode | ~/.config/opencode/skills/ |
| 8 | Grok CLI | ~/.grok/skills/ |
| 9 | OpenClaw | ~/.openclaw/skills/ |
| 10 | Hermes | ~/.hermes/skills/ |
Cleanup installed skills
skills-cleanup
The cleanup command guides you through two screens:
- Select AI tools — choose which tool directories to scan (defaults to all detected)
- Select skills to remove — a tree view showing each tool and its installed skills (defaults to none selected)
Select skills to remove:
Up/Down move | Space toggle | a all/none | Enter confirm | q quit
[ ] Select All / Deselect All
------------------------------------
Copilot CLI ~/.copilot/skills/ (0/3)
[ ] code-review-staged
[ ] figma
[ ] skill-creator
Cursor ~/.cursor/skills/ (0/2)
[ ] gh-operations
[ ] jira
0/5 selected for removal
Project-specific setup
To install skills at the project level instead, manually copy them:
cp -r mythril_agent_skills/skills/skill-name ./your-project/.github/skills/
# or
cp -r mythril_agent_skills/skills/skill-name ./your-project/.claude/skills/
