Browse And Evaluate
If you've ever installed a skill and immediately regretted the context window explosion, this is your guardrail. It walks you through the full browse, evaluate, preview, dry-run, install cycle with sane defaults like limiting fields to name, tier, workArea, and description. The best part is the enforcement: it won't let you skip the dry-run step or batch-install more than three skills without confirmation. The preview command even sanitizes potential prompt injection, which is both clever and slightly paranoid in a good way. Treat this as the disciplined workflow you know you should follow but usually skip when you're in a hurry.

Browse And Evaluate
Goal
Find the right skill for a task without flooding the context window or installing blindly.
Guardrails
- Always use
--fieldson list/search/info to keep output small. Default:--fields name,tier,workArea,description. - Always use
--dry-runbefore installing anything. - Never install more than 3 skills at once without explicit user confirmation.
- Prefer
--format jsonin non-interactive pipelines. The CLI defaults to JSON when stdout is not a TTY. - Use
--limitwhen browsing large catalogs. Start with--limit 10.
Workflow
- Search or browse the catalog.
npx ai-agent-skills search <query> --fields name,tier,workArea,description --limit 10
- Get details on a candidate.
npx ai-agent-skills info <skill-name> --fields name,description,tags,collections,installCommands
- Preview the skill content.
npx ai-agent-skills preview <skill-name>
- Dry-run the install.
npx ai-agent-skills install <skill-name> --dry-run
- Install only after reviewing the dry-run output.
npx ai-agent-skills install <skill-name>
