What it does
skillshare keeps the sources of skills, agents and extras such as rules and commands in one folder and places them into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode and other agents' directories via symlinks or copies. Skills install from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps or a self-hosted Git server and update with one command. A built-in audit scans skills for prompt injection and data exfiltration before they reach the agent. It supports project skills in .skillshare, per-target filters, local commits and a web dashboard.
Who it is for. For developers and teams using several AI agents who want one source of skills.
Good fit when
- Skills are scattered across agents' directories and drift apart
- You need to share a skill set with a team via Git
- You want to scan third-party skills for malicious instructions before install
Not a fit when
- You use one agent and a couple of skills
- You need a catalog to discover skills rather than a manager
Example request
Use skillshare to install our team's skills repo and sync them into Claude Code and CursorLimitations
Symlinks do not work in every agent; switch those targets to copy mode. The audit reduces risk but does not guarantee a skill is safe. The curl installer runs a script from the repository.
How to disable. Remove the skillshare binary (for example brew uninstall skillshare) and optionally the ~/.config/skillshare folder.
FAQ
What if symlinks do not work?
Switch the target to copy mode: skillshare target <name> --mode copy, then skillshare sync.
Can skills live in the project repo?
Yes, skillshare init -p creates a project config in .skillshare.

README in short
The README explains the problem of scattered skill directories and a model where one source folder syncs to every agent. It installs via a script on macOS and Linux, PowerShell on Windows, Homebrew or a GitHub Action. Core commands are shown: installing and updating skills, audit, project mode, agents, extras, local commits and the dashboard. The repo also ships a skillshare skill that teaches agents the CLI.
