# Install From Remote Library ## Goal Install from a shared library repo without guessing, over-installing, or skipping the preview step. ## Invariants - Always inspect the remote library first with `install <source> --list`. - Prefer `--collection` when the library clearly exposes a starter pack or focused bundle. - Always run `--dry-run` before the real install. - Keep the install small. Do not pull a whole library when the user only needs a narrow slice. ## Workflow 1. Inspect the source library. ```bash npx ai-agent-skills install <owner>/<repo> --list ``` 2. Choose the smallest fitting target. - Prefer `--collection starter-pack` or another named collection when it matches the user's need. - Use `--skill <name>` only when the user needs one specific skill or the library has no useful collection. - Do not combine `--collection` and `--skill`. 3. Preview the install plan before mutating anything. ```bash npx ai-agent-skills install <owner>/<repo> --collection starter-pack --dry-run -p ``` or ```bash npx ai-agent-skills install <owner>/<repo> --skill <skill-name> --dry-run -p ``` 4. If the plan looks right, run the real install with the same scope. ```bash npx ai-agent-skills ins

About this skill
What does the install-from-remote-library skill do?

Use when installing skills from a shared ai-agent-skills library repo. Inspect with `--list` first, prefer `--collection`, and preview with `--dry-run` before installing.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add MoizIbnYousaf/Ai-Agent-Skills --skill install-from-remote-library --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 MoizIbnYousaf/Ai-Agent-Skills, a repository with 1,114 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.
