ChatSkill

ChatSkill is the standalone ChatArch CLI extracted from ChatTool's skill-installation surface. It does not bundle skill content; it reads skill directories from an external source and installs them into Codex, Claude, or OpenCode target directories.

  • External Source

    Select the skill source via --source, CHATSKILL_SKILLS_DIR, or ChatEnv.

  • CLI Tree

    Inspect the current real command surface: chatskill --tree / --tree-brief.

  • Pre-install Validation

    Every skill must include SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter containing at least name and description.

Quick Start

pip install ChatSkill
chatskill --version
chatskill --tree
chatskill --tree-brief
chatskill list --source ~/Playground/skills/chatarch

Development Verification

pip install -e ".[dev,docs]"
python -m pytest -q
mkdocs build --strict
python -m build
