Skillry CLI reference

The Skillry CLI manages a local library of agent skills and subagents and keeps it in sync across your AI coding tools. This page lists every command.

init

npx skillry init

Creates the local library and detects installed AI coding tools (Claude Code, Copilot, Codex, Gemini). Safe to re-run; it reconciles rather than overwrites.

list

skillry list [--installed] [--available]

Shows skills. --installed limits to your library; --available shows the catalog.

add / remove

skillry add <skill-name>
skillry remove <skill-name>

Install or uninstall a skill. remove records a backup of anything it deletes.

sync

skillry sync [--dry-run]

Reconciles the library across all detected tools. --dry-run prints the plan without writing anything — recommended before the first real sync.

validate

skillry validate

Checks every skill for schema errors and broken subagent bindings. Exit code is non-zero on failure, so it fits cleanly into CI.

Global flags

Flag	Effect
--dry-run	Print intended changes without writing.
--json	Machine-readable output.
--verbose	Extra logging for debugging.
