Skillshare CLI

Two Modes

Global: ~/.config/skillshare/skills → ~/.claude/skills, ~/.cursor/skills, ...
Project: .skillshare/skills/        → .claude/skills, .cursor/skills (per-repo)

Auto-detection: commands run in project mode when .skillshare/config.yaml exists in cwd. Force with -p (project) or -g (global).

AI Usage Notes

Non-Interactive Mode

AI cannot respond to CLI prompts. Always pass flags to skip interactive prompts.

# Key non-interactive patterns
skillshare init --no-copy --all-targets --git --skill   # Global fresh start
skillshare init -p --targets "claude,cursor"       # Project init
skillshare install user/repo --all                      # Install all skills
skillshare install user/repo -s pdf,commit              # Select specific

See init.md and install.md for all flags.

Safety

• install auto-scans skills; CRITICAL findings block install (--force to override)
• install shows license from SKILL.md frontmatter in selection/confirmation prompts
• uninstall accepts multiple names and --group/-G for batch removal; auto-detects group directories
• uninstall moves to trash (7-day retention) — restore with trash restore <name>
• NEVER rm -rf symlinked skills — deletes source. Use skillshare uninstall or target remove

See audit.md and trash.md for details.
