This is the meta-installer for Claude Code skills. It pulls from a curated list at openai/skills or lets you install from any GitHub repo, including private ones. Run it to see what's available, pick what you want, and it handles the download into your Codex skills directory. The scripts are smart about auth, falling back from direct download to git sparse checkout when needed. Honestly, it's most useful when you're first setting up or exploring what exists in the ecosystem. One caveat: you need to restart Codex after installing anything, which breaks flow a bit but that's how the architecture works.

Skill Installer

Helps install skills. By default these are from https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.curated, but users can also provide other locations.

Use the helper scripts based on the task:

  • List curated skills when the user asks what is available, or if the user uses this skill without specifying what to do.
  • Install from the curated list when the user provides a skill name.
  • Install from another repo when the user provides a GitHub repo/path (including private repos).

Install skills with the helper scripts.

Communication

When listing curated skills, output approximately as follows, depending on the context of the user's request: """ Skills from {repo}:

  1. skill-1
  2. skill-2 (already installed)
  3. ... Which ones would you like installed? """

After installing a skill, tell the user: "Restart Codex to pick up new skills."

Scripts

All of these scripts use network, so when running in the sandbox, request escalation when running them.
