Distribute global skills across Codex, Claude Code, Pi, Hermes, and Cursor. Use for "distribute this skill", "sync skills across agents", or after creating or updating a global skill.
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
# Distribute a Skill Across All Agents A global skill must exist at all five locations on the user's Mac, directly or via symlink, for every agent to discover it. ## Skill locations - **Codex / OpenAI Agents:** `~/.agents/skills/` is canonical. Author skills here first. - **Claude Code:** `~/.claude/skills/` → `~/.agents/skills/`; covered automatically. - **Pi Agent:** `~/.pi/agent/skills/` → `~/.agents/skills/`; covered automatically. The nested `/agent/` is required, not `~/.pi/skills/`. - **Hermes Agent:** `~/.hermes/skills/` is an independent copy; only Hermes needs copying. - **Cursor (IDE + CLI):** `~/.cursor/skills/` is a real folder that does not reliably read `~/.agents/skills/`. Add one symlink per skill. Never use `~/.cursor/skills-cursor/`; it holds Cursor's built-ins. ## Workflow 1. **Author in `~/.agents/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md`**, following `effective-agent-skills`. 2. **Verify the Claude symlink** (one-time check): ```bash ls -la ~/.claude/skills # Expect: ~/.claude/skills -> ~/.agents/skills ``` If it is a real directory, copies have diverged — ask before touching. 3. **Copy to Hermes**; Claude and Pi are covered by symlinks: ```bash …

How to install
mdr add davidondrej/skills/distribute-skill-to-all-agents@sha256:279e5bcb82510548The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.bbafe9d, 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.
