Introduction

mind installs agent tooling (skills, agents, rules, commands, workflows, tools, and shared resources) from git repos into your agent homes, and keeps it up to date.

Point it at any repo that ships agent tooling and it finds the items by their layout, with no manifest required. It copies the items you choose into a store it manages and links them into ~/.claude (or Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, Windsurf, or any directory you name). Later it tells you what changed upstream and upgrades on your say-so.

mind meld anthropics/skills     # register a repo and pick items to install
mind probe                      # browse everything your repos offer
mind upgrade                    # pull upstream changes into installed items

Who it is for

  • People using agent tooling. Install skills from several repos without copying files around, see what is installed and where it came from, update or roll back, and keep more than one agent harness in step.
  • Teams. Share one curated set of sources, reproduce a setup on a new machine with one command, and (for an organization) restrict which sources may be installed.
  • People publishing agent tooling. Any repo is installable as it is. An optional mind.toml adds a namespace, install profiles, hooks, or an explicit inventory.
