Products that do what Distributing AI agent skills via NPM does

Hey HN! Built a template for distributing AI agent skills via npm. Problem: AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) support custom "skills" but distribution is manual - copy files to ~/.tool/skills/, repeat for updates, no versioning. Solution: Standard npm packages with lifecycle hooks: npm install -g @org/my-skill npm update -g @org/my-skill Benefits: - Semantic versioning (^1.2.0 for auto-updates) - Private registries for enterprise - Standard CI/CD integration - Discoverable on npmjs.com It's a GitHub template - fork, customize SKILL.md, publish.…

    I created this tool after writing a few agent skills by hand and noticing this pattern was repetitive. Paste a documentation URL, enter your own model API key, and it gets the page content client-side to create a reusable SKILL.md. There is no backend/proxy, so it stays as secure as possible. I would like feedback on the structure of the output and the edge cases.

    Hey all! I'm the maintainer of mistral.rs. I just landed support for OpenAI-compatible Agent Skills via a /v1/skills endpoint, and it works with local open models. Until now Skills have basically been locked to closed models, and with the ability to have private, local intelligence becoming increasingly important, but this feature allows you to do XYZ with local models. It's fully compatible with OpenAI's /v1/skills API, so you can drop mistral.rs into your existing code with minimal difficulty. We support the accompanying tools too: /v1/files or input_file for…

    Hi HN — I'm Scott. Skillscript is a small language I built to write what I want my local agent to actually do, in a form I can read and version, instead of hoping the model gets it right each time. The itch started with something small. I wanted my NanoClaw agent to run my morning brief the same way every day. Check overnight tickets, summarize the deploy pipeline, flag anything urgent. Every session, it would re-figure out how to do this from scratch, drift a little, and cost tokens for what's basically a fixed procedure. I could put it in a system prompt or an MD skill file, but those are…

    I'm Guy, the founder behind Snyk — now building Tessl, a package manager for agent skills. We’ve recently witnessed that most teams still treat skills as static artifacts: markdown files, created or copied from repo to repo. This approach offers a strong initial boost, but quickly creates debt: - Skills are duplicated, and updates never roll out. - Poor quality skills go unseen, misguiding agents instead of helping. - Skill knowledge grows stale, and don’t keep up with the systems and practices they describe. Without a way to evaluate skills, teams have no clear way to understand how good a…

    I built a collection of webhook skills because AI coding agents are surprisingly bad at webhook integrations. The generated code looks reasonable until you run it, then signature verification fails, raw body handling is wrong, or the middleware order breaks everything. PostHog's research on LLM code generation (https://posthog.com/blog/correct-llm-code-generation) found that agents produce more reliable code when referencing known-working examples rather than reconstructing from training data. That's the approach here. `webhook-skills` is a collection of provider-specific…

    Hi HN, I built a tool [1] that resolves breaking changes when you upgrade npm packages. I know keeping my dependencies updated is good hygiene but I really have no motivations to do them. The time to fix breaking changes then validate them makes the ROI lopsided. Automating these helps me reduce the barrier to a good habit. It works on typescript and tsx projects. BYOK (bring your own GPT-4 key) for the codegen. MIT license. How does it work? - Bumps the package version, builds your project, and then runs tsc over your project to understand what breaks - Uses ts-morph [2] to create an AST of…
