cli-mastery
Interactive training for the GitHub Copilot CLI. Guided lessons, quizzes, scenario challenges, and a full reference covering slash commands, shortcuts, modes, agents, skills, MCP, and configuration. Say "cliexpert" to start.
npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill cli-mastery --agent copilot
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

What does the cli-mastery skill do?
Interactive training for the GitHub Copilot CLI. Guided lessons, quizzes, scenario challenges, and a full reference covering slash commands, shortcuts, modes, agents, skills, MCP, and configuration. Say "cliexpert" to start.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill cli-mastery --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
