# skill-installer output preview
## PART A: Task fit
- Use case: Install Codex skills into $CODEX_HOME/skills from a curated list or a GitHub repo path. Use when a user asks to list installable skills, install a curated skill, or install a skill from another repo (including private repos)..
- Inputs: target material, constraints, expected output, and acceptance criteria.
- Evidence boundary: follow “Communication / Scripts / Behavior and Options” and do not present inference as author intent.
## PART B: Execution result
- **01** The card summarizes the use case; runtime output centers on “Install Codex skills into $CODEX_HOME/skills from a curated list or a GitHub repo path. Use when a user asks to list installable skills, install a curated skill, or install a skill from another repo (including private repos).”.
- **02** When the source has headings, the agent prioritizes “Communication / Scripts / Behavior and Options” so the result follows the author’s structure.
- **03** Typical output includes task judgment, concrete steps, required commands or file edits, validation, and follow-up options.
- **04** Risk context follows the fingerprint: read files, write/modify files; may access external network resources; requires GitHub API keys.
## Running Rules
- read files, write/modify files; may access external network resources; requires GitHub API keys.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding scope.
- Return the result, validation criteria, and next iteration options.The source does not require a stable slash command. After installation, invoke the skill by name and describe the task.
Name target files or source material, expected output, forbidden changes, and whether network or shell access is allowed. Permission fingerprint: read files, write/modify files.
Start with a small task and check whether the result follows “Communication / Scripts / Behavior and Options”. Inspect diffs, logs, previews, or tests before expanding scope.
Confirm the final output includes a concrete result, evidence, and next action. If it stays generic, tighten inputs, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.

# skill-installer
## When to use
- Install Codex skills into $CODEX_HOME/skills from a curated list or a GitHub repo path. Use when a user asks to list i…
- Use it when the task has clear inputs, repeatable steps, and validation criteria.
## What to provide
- Target material, scope, expected result, and forbidden changes.
- Whether network, commands, file writes, or external services are allowed.
## Execution rules
- Organize steps around “Communication / Scripts / Behavior and Options” and keep inference separate from source facts.
- read files, write/modify files; may access external network resources; requires GitHub API keys.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding the task.
## Output requirements
- Return the deliverable, key evidence, validation method, and next action.
- Mark missing information as unknown; do not invent commands, platforms, or dependencies.The author source anchors workflow facts; repository files anchor sources and commands; Fluxly only adds fit, limitations, and quality judgment.

}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}:
- skill-1
- skill-2 (already installed)
- ... 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.
scripts/list-curated-skills.py(prints curated list with installed annotations)scripts/list-curated-skills.py --format jsonscripts/install-skill-from-github.py --repo <owner>/<repo> --path <path/to/skill> [<path/to/skill> ...]scripts/install-skill-from-github.py --url https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/tree/<ref>/<path>
Behavior and Options
- Defaults to direct download for public GitHub repos.
- If download fails with auth/permission errors, falls back to git sparse checkout.
- Aborts if the destination skill directory already exists.
- Installs into
$CODEX_HOME/skills/<skill-name>(defaults to~/.codex/skills). - Multiple
--pathvalues install multiple skills in one run, each named from the path basename unless--nameis supplied. - Options:
--ref <ref>(defaultmain),--dest <path>,--method auto|download|git.
Notes
- Curated listing is fetched from
https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.curatedvia the GitHub API. If it is unavailable, explain the error and exit. - Private GitHub repos can be accessed via existing git credentials or optional
GITHUB_TOKEN/GH_TOKENfor download. - Git fallback tries HTTPS first, then SSH.
- The skills at https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.system are preinstalled, so no need to help users install those. If they ask, just explain this. If they insist, you can download and overwrite.
- Installed annotations come from
$CODEX_HOME/skills.
