How it works

Skills are directories placed under ~/.claude/skills/ that Claude Code reads at startup. CCSM manages these directories by pulling skill definitions from marketplace repositories that expose a skills.json manifest:

{
  "name": "My Marketplace",
  "skills": [
    {
      "name": "example-skill",
      "description": "An example Claude Code skill",
      "repository": "https://github.com/user/skill-repo",
      "branch": "main"
    }
  ]
}

Deploy modes

• Copy (default): Skill files are physically copied to ~/.claude/skills/<name>/.
• Link: A symlink is created from ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ to the local store, useful for development.

Building

cargo build --release

Cross-compilation targets: Linux (amd64), macOS (amd64), and Windows (amd64) via cargo-zigbuild.
