skrills

Overview

Skrills is a comprehensive skill coordination tool that bridges the gap between different AI coding assistants. It validates skills against each platform's requirements, syncs skills and configurations between CLIs, and provides analytics for token optimization. The Rust-based implementation includes a built-in MCP server exposing 36 tools for validation, sync, intelligence operations, and research capabilities.

After installing, here are 5 things you can ask your AI assistant:

• sync-all

  Syncs skills, commands, agents, MCP servers, hooks, rules, preferences, and plugin assets between all CLIs

  Try:Sync my skills from Claude to all other AI coding assistantsTry:Perform a full sync between all my CLI environments
• validate

  Validate skills against different CLI requirements with optional autofix

  Try:Validate my skills for Codex and Copilot compatibilityTry:Check if my skills are valid for all AI coding assistants with autofix
• analyze

  Analyze token usage and provide optimization suggestions

  Try:Analyze token usage in my skillsTry:Find skills using over 1000 tokens with optimization suggestions
• sync

  Sync assets between specific CLI environments

  Try:Sync from Cursor to Claude onlyTry:Transfer skills from Codex CLI to Copilot CLI
• serve

  Start MCP server with HTTP transport and browser dashboard

  Try:Start the MCP server on port 3000Try:Launch the HTTP server with browser dashboard
• cold-window

  Launch real-time dashboard with continuous analysis of skills and plugins

  Try:Open cold-window dashboard in browserTry:Start real-time analysis with 4-tier alerts
• tui

  Launch interactive terminal user interface dashboard

  Try:Open the TUI dashboardTry:Show skills and metrics in the terminal interface
• multi-cli-agent

  Launch an agent with automatic backend routing between CLIs

  Try:Create an agent that uses Claude with Codex fallbackTry:Start an agent that routes between multiple AI coding assistants
• skill-deprecate

  Mark a skill as deprecated across all CLI environments

  Try:Deprecate my old code review skillTry:Mark a skill as no longer recommended
• skill-rollback

  Roll back a skill to a previous version

  Try:Roll back my skill to the last validated versionTry:Restore a previous version of my deployment skill
• skill-import

  Import a skill from a marketplace or repository

  Try:Import a skill from the superpowers marketplaceTry:Add a new TDD skill from GitHub
• skill-score

  Score and rank skills based on usage and performance metrics

  Try:Show me the highest scoring skillsTry:Rank my skills by usage frequency

Note: Tool names inferred from CLI command examples. The README mentions 36 MCP tools but only provides CLI examples. The actual MCP tool signatures and descriptions are not fully documented in this README excerpt.
