What it does

Agent Skills is now an open standard, but each AI agent manages skills differently, making multi-agent workflows hard to maintain. flins acts as a dependency manager for agent skills, similar to npm. With commands like flins add, update, remove, list, and search, developers can manage skills consistently across multiple AI coding agents.

Install and manage AI agent skills from one CLI. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and 10+ other AI dev tools.

The universal skill manager for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, and 10+ other AI dev tools. Treat skills like dependencies. Add, update, and remove them with the same commands you already know. A curated directory of official skills from leading companies and trusted developers. Pull skills directly from GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, or any git-hosted URL. Install from anywhere, just like your favorite package manager. .agents / └─ skills / └─ better-auth / # Source # Symlinks point here: .claude / └─ skills / └─ better-auth # symlink .cursor / └─ skills / └─ better-auth # symlink .codex / └─ skills / └─ better-auth # symlink One folder.

    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.…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
