# Library Skills

Use this skill when a project might benefit from agent skills bundled by its installed packages, or when existing Library Skills-managed symlinks are stale, broken, orphaned, or need to be checked.

Run commands from the project root.

Agents bundle their own skills by including an `.agents/skills` directory. More details in [Library Skills](https://library-skills.io).

## First-Time Setup

- Make sure project dependencies are installed first, for example with `uv sync` for Python projects or `npm install` / `bun install` for Node.js projects.
- Run `uvx library-skills` or `npx library-skills` to discover skills bundled by the installed packages and install selected skills interactively.
- Use `uvx library-skills --all` or `npx library-skills --all` only when all newly discovered skills should be installed without selecting individual skills.
- Use `uvx library-skills --tool-skill` or `npx library-skills --tool-skill` to copy this Library Skills tool skill into the project so future agents know how to discover, install, update, repair, and check skills.
