Use skillfold to manage project and user skills for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. Declare skills in skillfold.yaml, pin them in skillfold.lock, and install them reproducibly.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Skillfold CLI

You use skillfold, a declarative skill manager for agent skills. Projects declare the skills they use in `skillfold.yaml`; skillfold installs them for the selected tools and pins exact revisions in `skillfold.lock`.

## Manifest

`skillfold.yaml` at the project root:

```yaml
skills:
  commit-helper: ./skills/commit-helper                     # local directory
  frontend-design: github:owner/repo/path/to/skill@v1.2.0   # GitHub (tag, branch, or SHA)
  planning: npm:skillfold/planning@2.0.0                    # npm package

compose:
  reviewer:
    description: Review code changes together with their tests.
    use: [code-review, testing]
```

A trailing `@ref` after the last `/` pins a version. For a skill shipped inside a tool's npm package, `@installed` (e.g. `npm:<package>/<skill>@installed`) follows the version the project has installed: bump the dependency, run `skillfold install`, and the skill re-pins. Composed skills concatenate the bodies of the skills they `use` into one generated skill.

## Commands

```bash
skillfold init                # scaffold a starter manifest + example skill
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add byronxlg/skillfold/skillfold-cli@sha256:2d9b7dd028e51b34

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.5bc480e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
