Quickstart

Meld a source and install its items:

mind meld jaemk/mind   # clone this repo, prompt to install its items
mind recall            # list what's installed

mind meld jaemk/mind registers the hello-mind example skill plus two curated sources it points at, anthropics/skills and ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills, without installing their items. Melding any other repo works the same way:

mind meld owner/repo   # clone and prompt to install items
mind recall            # list what's installed

meld presents available items and prompts to install. Confirm to install all, or select individually. To register without installing and choose items later:

mind meld owner/repo --register-only   # register only, skip install prompt
mind probe                              # browse available items (interactive TUI)
mind learn <item>                       # install a specific item
mind recall                             # list what's installed

Agent homes can be Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, Antigravity, or Windsurf – not just ~/.claude. Run mind config lobes detect to find which of these are installed and add matching lobes (Windsurf is project-scoped, so it gets a mind link-project hint instead of an auto-added lobe). See Configuration for the per-harness path table and preset commands.

To try mind’s install flow against a source you can inspect and edit freely, clone the repo and meld the bundled starter example (a plain convention layout, see examples/starter/):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jaemk/mind /tmp/mind-repo
cp -r /tmp/mind-repo/examples/starter /tmp/starter
cd /tmp/starter && git init -q && git add -A && git commit -qm init
mind meld /tmp/starter   # prompts to install; confirm to install all three
mind recall

Commands is the full verb reference. Source layout covers how a source repo exposes items.
