**The universal agent platform. One install. Every AI coding tool. Instantly smart.**

`skillsmith` is a CLI tool that scaffolds industry-standard `.agent` structures into any project and automatically configures **every major AI coding assistant** — Gemini CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and GitHub Copilot — to use your project's skills, context, and workflows.

---

## 🚀 Quick Start

Initialize a new project with best-practice agent context in seconds:

```bash
# Install the library
pip install skillsmith

# Scaffold the .agent structure and AGENTS.md
skillsmith init
```

---

## ✨ Key Features

- **🌐 Universal Agent Platform** *(v0.3.0)*: Auto-generates platform-specific config files for Gemini, Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and Copilot.
- **600+ Skills (Categorized)**: Massive library organized into 9 broad categories (Security, Data-AI, Infrastructure...).
- **GSD Protocol**: Built-in Discuss → Plan → Execute → Verify workflow for reliable agent output.
- **Smart Append**: If platform config files already exist, skillsmith appends its config without overwriting your rules.
- **23 Core Skills**: Out-of-the-box expertise for TDD, Security Audits, Context Engineering, and more.
- **AGENTS.md Standard**: Native support for the [agents.md](https://agents.md) open standard ("README for Agents").
- **State Management**: `PROJECT.md`, `ROADMAP.md`, and `STATE.md` templates prevent AI context rot.
- **Portable & Modular**: Add only the skills you need for your specific tech stack.

## 💻 CLI Commands

### Initialize Project
Scaffold the full structure including all 23 skills.
```bash
skillsmith init
```

### Minimal Scaffolding
Create the directory structure and templates without the pre-built skills.
```bash
skillsmith init --minimal
```

### Install by Category or Tag
Install bundles of skills for specific domains.
```bash
# Install all Security skills
skillsmith init --category security

# Install all Python skills
skillsmith init --tag python
```

### List Available Skills
View the library of portable expertise.
```bash
skillsmith list

# Filter by category
skillsmith list --category data-ai

# Filter by tag
skillsmith list --tag react
```

### Update Skills
Sync local project skills with the library and latest best practices.
```bash
skillsmith update
```

### Validate Skills
Verify skill structure, metadata, and link integrity.
```bash
# Basic validation
skillsmith lint --local

# AgentSkills.io standard compliance (adopted by Anthropic, Microsoft, OpenAI, Google)
skillsmith lint --spec agentskills
```

### Compose a Workflow
Generate a workflow by composing relevant skills for a goal.
```bash
skillsmith compose "build a saas mvp"
skillsmith compose "fix a security vulnerability" --max-skills 5
```
Outputs a numbered workflow `.md` to `.agent/workflows/<goal-slug>.md`.

### Health Check
Verify your entire skillsmith setup across all AI platforms.
```bash
skillsmith doctor

# Auto-fix missing platform files
skillsmith doctor --fix
```

### Context Budget
Analyze token usage across all platform files and skills.
```bash
skillsmith budget
```
