aix skill install

Install a skill from a repository, local path, or git URL

Synopsis

Install a skill from a configured repository, local directory, or git URL.

The source can be:

A skill name to search in configured repositories
A local path to a directory containing SKILL.md
A git URL (https://, git@, or .git suffix)

When given a name (not a path), aix searches configured repositories first. If the skill exists in multiple repositories, you will be prompted to select one. Use –file to skip repo search and treat the argument as a file path.

For git URLs, the repository is cloned to a temporary directory, the skill is installed, and the temporary directory is cleaned up.
