# Manage AI Agent Skills You can manage skills and rules for all major AI coding tools directly from the terminal. This skill teaches you the directory layout, file format, and operations for each tool. ## When to Use Use this skill when the user wants to inspect, create, edit, enable, disable, copy, move, or delete local AI-agent skills or rule files across supported coding tools. ## Supported Tools & Paths ### Directory-based tools (multiple skills) Each skill lives in its own subdirectory with a `SKILL.md` file containing YAML frontmatter. | Tool | Global Path | Project Path | |------|------------|--------------| | Agents | `~/.agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | `.agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | | Cursor | `~/.cursor/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | `.cursor/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | | Claude | `~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | `.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | | Windsurf | `~/.windsurf/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | `.windsurf/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | | Cline | `~/.cline/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | `.cline/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | | Continue | `~/.continue/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | `.continue/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | | Roo Code | `~/.roo/rules/<name>/<name>.md` | `.roo/rules/<name>/<na

About this skill
What does the manage-skills skill do?

Discover, list, create, edit, toggle, copy, move, and delete AI agent skills across 11 tools (Cursor, Claude, Agents, Windsurf, Copilot, Codex, Cline, Aider, Continue, Roo Code, Augment)

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill manage-skills --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 sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 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.
