sync-skills

name	sync-skills
description	Copy this repo's skills into another agent harness's skills directory by name — resolves the harness alias to its path via scripts/sync-targets.json and runs sync-skills.sh. Use only when the user asks to copy/sync/push the skills to another harness (oh-my-pi, opencode, kimi, codex, etc.) — never trigger automatically.

Sync-Skills

Thin natural-language wrapper over scripts/sync-skills.sh. The user names a harness ("copy the skills to oh-my-pi"); you resolve it to a skills directory and run the sync. All copying, marker safety, and dir resolution live in the script — you only parse intent, invoke, and relay.

Prerequisites

Requires jq on PATH. --to <alias> and list-targets resolve scripts/sync-targets.json through jq; the script fails fast with a clear error if jq is missing. Confirm jq is installed before invoking — command -v jq should print a path.

Resolve the repo + script (every run)

The script derives its source dir from its own location. Resolve the repo root once:

ROOT="$(git -C "$PWD" rev-parse --show-toplevel)"

Then use "$ROOT/scripts/sync-skills.sh". If $ROOT/scripts/sync-skills.sh does not exist, stop and tell the user to run this from the skills repo checkout.

Steps

1. Parse the request into:

   • a harness alias — normalize the user's phrasing to a canonical key using this table (additions to scripts/sync-targets.json are how the table grows over time):

     User phrasing	Canonical alias
     claude, ~/.claude, claude-code	claude
     omp, oh-my-pi, "oh my pi"	oh-my-pi
     oc, opencode	opencode
     kimi	kimi (unmapped — discovery fallback)
     codex	codex (unmapped — discovery fallback)

     Quote any alias that contains a space or shell metacharacter when passing it to --to. To see the full current list:

     bash "$ROOT/scripts/sync-skills.sh" list-targets
     

   • skill names, if any were named (otherwise all skills are pushed).

   • the verb: default push ("copy to X"). Only use pull / import / nuke if the user explicitly asked for that direction.

2. Run (push, the common case):

   bash "$ROOT/scripts/sync-skills.sh" --to "<alias>" push [skill...]
   

   Echo the resolved destination (from list-targets) before/with the run, then relay the script's summary verbatim.

3. Unknown alias → discovery fallback. If --to exits non-zero with "unknown harness", do NOT retry blindly. Instead:

   • Probe a few conventional locations and show what exists:

Confirm before running when

• The target is brand-new / unmapped (first push to a harness) — show the resolved path and get a yes.
• The verb is nuke or any --force — these delete/overwrite at the target. State exactly what will be removed/overwritten and where, then wait.

A normal push to an already-mapped harness needs no confirmation — just echo the destination and go.

You Must NOT

• Copy files yourself (cp, rsync, manual mkdir) — the script owns all mutation and its marker logic protects unmanaged dirs at the target.
• Call the script via {base_directory} — that points at this skill's dir, not the repo's scripts/. Always resolve $ROOT via git.
• Push to a path you guessed without the user confirming it (fallback path).
• Edit sync-targets.json before the user agrees to persist a new mapping.
• Run nuke/--force without an explicit go-ahead.
