Use when the user says "load skills from GitHub", "import skills from repo", "add skills from URL", "install skills from this link", or runs /skills-load with a GitHub URL. Also trigger when the user pastes a GitHub URL and mentions skills, plugins, or Claude capabilities they want to add.
Save the current in-conversation version of loaded skills as a new plugin. Use when the user says "save these skills", "save my iterated skills", "save loaded", "package what I've been working on", "save this as a plugin", "install what I loaded", "I forgot to click save plugin", or runs /skills-save. Captures the CURRENT state from this conversation โ iterated versions if any, originals otherwise. For fetching from GitHub, use /skills-load instead.
Package skills already installed in your Cowork session as a downloadable .zip file you can save to disk and share. Use when user says "share my skills", "export installed skills", "download my skills", "send these skills to a colleague", "package skills for sharing", or runs /skills-share. This is for exporting skills you ALREADY have โ to get skills from a GitHub repo, use /skills-load instead.
Refresh plugins previously installed by skills-toolkit by re-fetching their GitHub sources and presenting updated .plugin files to Cowork. Use when the user says "update my loaded skills", "refresh skills from github", "pull latest skills", "sync skills-toolkit plugins", "check for skill updates", or runs /skills-update. Identifies target plugins via the skills-toolkit keyword marker embedded in plugin.json โ does not touch domain plugins or unrelated SkillsPlugin entries.
Detects when the user pastes or mentions a GitHub URL that may contain Claude skills or plugins. Triggers on messages containing github.com URLs, especially when user says things like "here's a repo", "check out this repo", "load this", "use these skills", "I found these skills", or simply pastes a github.com link. Make sure to use this skill whenever a GitHub URL appears in the user's message that might contain Claude Code skills or plugins.
