Claude skills managers and skills CLIs that install Claude skills, keep them updated and sync them across Claude Code, Codex and 15+ other AI coding tools: desktop apps, package managers, registries.
Of the 182 Claude Skills Managers & CLIs here, our pick after testing them is asm (★ 966). Install this one: The only tool of 14 that flagged the skill with a curl | sh script as high risk and would not install it by default. One command installs a folder of skills, it removes them cleanly, and it puts them in Codex too. See the test →
We ran 16 of these tools on 2026-10-09; 14 could be judged. Each got the same job in a throwaway sandbox, driven by Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5): install 20 test skills, install one more that ships a curl | sh setup script, remove all but five, and give those five to Codex. What is on disk and how many tokens Claude Code loads were measured after each step.
npm install -g agent-skill-manager
pip install apm-cli
Not if you need to remove skills: skillfile (its remove edits the manifest but leaves the installed folders); agent-skill-sync (it never deletes, by design).
Whichever you pick: 12 of 14 installed a skill with a curl | sh script without stopping. Read a skill's scripts folder, or check its grade here, before you install it.
Ranked by what the tool did with the risky skill, then whether it removes skills cleanly, then whether it syncs to Codex, then GitHub stars.
| # | Tool | Skill with a curl | sh script | Removes cleanly | Syncs to Codex | Tokens per session, 20 skills | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | asm ★ 952 | Warned, not installed by default | Yes | Yes | +345 | The run |

A Claude skills manager decides two things for you. The first is what sits in your agent's context. More skills is not better: in SkillsBench (87 tasks, 18 model and agent setups) curated skills raised the pass rate from 33.9% to 50.5%, and focused skills of at most three modules beat large bundles. When every tool is put in front of a model at once, it picks the right one 13.62% of the time; retrieving only the relevant ones raised that to 43.13% and cut prompt tokens by more than half (RAG-MCP). On our own Claude Code setup, 512 skills were installed and 51 had ever been used; removing the other 461 saved 38,147 tokens in every session. The second is what code reaches your machine. A study of 98,380 skills from two registries confirmed 157 malicious ones (USENIX Security 2026), and in another sample 26.1% of skills had at least one vulnerability, with skills that ship scripts 2.12 times as likely to. So we judge a Claude skills manager by how it handles both: does it load skills on demand, and does it check what it installs.
| Kind | How it works | What it saves you | What to watch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skills CLI installers 55 · ai-agent-skills, mcpm.sh |
Add, remove and update skills from the terminal, usually straight from a GitHub repo. | Fast, scriptable, and easy to remove what you no longer use. | Installs whatever the repo contains, scripts included, unless it shows you first. |
| All-in-one managers 31 · apm, skillshare |
One place for skills, MCP servers, rules, hooks and settings across several agents. | One source of truth instead of a folder per agent. | The more it manages, the more it can load into every session; check how it decides what to load. |
| Sync across agents 10 · hivemind, skills-link |
Keeps one skill folder linked into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others. | Write a skill once, use it everywhere. | Every agent now carries every skill; prune the folder or the cost multiplies. |
| Desktop and web apps 46 · AgentPilot, skills-manager |
Browse, edit, enable and disable installed skills in a window. | You see what is installed, which is the first step to removing it. | Some read your agent's config folders and keys; check the grade. |
| Registries and marketplaces 36 · pm-skills, agent-skills |
Search and install skills others published. | Discovery: the skill you need may already exist. | This is where malicious skills were found; a pattern scanner alone flags far too many, so look for one that reads the repository. |
| Team management 4 · skillhub, skill-base |
A shared, often self-hosted registry with versions, reviews and permissions. | A review step before a skill reaches everyone's machine. | Only as good as the review; someone has to read what is published. |
The studies measure skills and registries, not the managers themselves. No paper yet tests whether a manager's on-demand loading actually keeps the context small, so the questions below are our reading of the research, not its findings.
| One person, one or two agents | A CLI installer, and remove what you have not used in a month |
| Several agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) | A sync tool over one small, pruned folder |
| A team | A self-hosted registry with a review step before publishing |
| Looking for new skills | A registry that shows the source and a security grade for each skill |
The floor is install safety. All 5 entries on this page flagged CAUTION or UNSAFE are flagged only for how they install (sudo, or a curl | sh installer), not for anything they do while they install, sync or manage skills.

Several. For a desktop app: xingkongliang/skills-manager and HKUDS/OpenSpace. For the command line: MoizIbnYousaf/ai-agent-skills and luongnv89/asm. To keep one set of skills in sync across agents: shanliuling/skills-link. For teams: iflytek/skillhub, a self-hosted skill registry. All are in the open-source list zhuyansen/awesome-agent-skills-managers on GitHub.
Use a manager that installs to every agent from one place: runkids/skillshare manages skills, agents, rules, MCP connections and hooks across tools; microsoft/apm is a package manager for agents; shanliuling/skills-link syncs local skills to 41+ coding agents with one command.
The top skill & agent management in 2026 are skills-manager, pm-skills, AgentPilot. Agent Skills Hub ranks 182 options by GitHub stars, quality score (6 dimensions including completeness, examples, and agent readiness), and recent activity. The list is rebuilt every 8 hours from live GitHub data.
skills-manager (0 stars) is the top-ranked choice on this list for general skill & agent management workflows. pm-skills (27.5k stars) is a strong alternative. Pick by your existing stack: match the language and runtime your team already uses to minimize integration cost. If unsure, start with skills-manager.
Avoid pre-built skill & agent management when (1) your use case requires deep customization that the tool's plugin system doesn't support, (2) you have strict compliance requirements that ban third-party dependencies, (3) the tool's maintenance is inactive (last commit >6 months ago), or (4) your data volume is small enough that a 50-line custom script is cheaper than learning the tool. For most production workflows above 100 requests/day, the time savings from a maintained tool outweigh the customization loss.
Skill & Agent Management focuses specifically on claude skills managers and skills clis that install claude skills, keep them updated and sync them across claude code, codex and 15+ other ai coding tools: desktop apps, package managers, registries. Claude Code Hooks, Subagents & Statusline is a related but distinct category — see https://agentskillshub.top/best/claude-code-hooks/ for those tools. The two often appear in the same agent pipeline but solve different problems: choose skill & agent management when your primary goal is the specific task, and claude code hooks, subagents & statusline when the workflow is broader.
For most teams, yes. skills-manager has 0 stars worth of community testing, handles edge cases you haven't thought of, and ships with documentation. Build your own only when (1) your requirements are deeply non-standard, (2) you have a security/compliance reason to avoid OSS dependencies, or (3) the maintenance burden is small enough (<200 lines of code) that you'll save time long-term. The break-even point is usually around 2-3 weeks of dev time saved.
Most skill & agent management listed are open source under permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0). A handful offer paid managed/cloud versions on top of free self-hosted core. Always check the LICENSE file on each tool's GitHub repository before commercial use — some use AGPL or non-commercial restrictions that may not fit your deployment model.
Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy: 42 published rules, covering credential harvesting, data exfiltration, curl | sh installers and more. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
