Why we included this project

Teams that hop between Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, or Codex often end up maintaining separate skill setups for each tool. OpenSkills standardizes that by treating Anthropic's SKILL.md as the common format: it writes the same XML block Claude Code would generate into your AGENTS.md file, so any agent that reads that file can load the matching skill on demand. Skills install into the project folder, which means they get versioned with the repo and can come from local paths or private git repos when you can't rely on a public marketplace. The loader pulls a skill only when the task calls for it, which keeps the context window from bloating during long sessions. It's not a replacement for your agent, just a one-command way to install, sync, and version skills instead of copying files by hand.
