agr — Skills for AI Agents

A package manager for AI agent skills. Install, share, and run skills across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, Copilot, and Antigravity — with a single command.

Install

uv tool install agr

Add your first skill

agr add anthropics/skills/frontend-design

That's it. The skill is now installed in your tool's skills folder (handle format). Invoke it:

Tool Invoke with
Claude Code /frontend-design
Cursor /frontend-design
OpenAI Codex $frontend-design
OpenCode frontend-design
GitHub Copilot /frontend-design
Antigravity (via IDE)

No setup required

agr add auto-creates agr.toml if it doesn't exist and detects which tools you use. You don't need to run agr init first.

Run a skill without installing

agrx anthropics/skills/pdf -p "Extract tables from report.pdf"

agrx downloads the skill, runs it with your tool, and cleans up. Nothing is saved to your project.

Sync skills across a team

Dependencies are tracked in agr.toml:

dependencies = [
    {handle = "anthropics/skills/frontend-design", type = "skill"},
    {handle = "anthropics/skills/skill-creator", type = "skill"},
]

Teammates install everything with one command — see Teams for CI/CD setup:

agr sync

Create your own

agr init my-skill                # Scaffold a new skill
# Edit my-skill/SKILL.md with your instructions
agr add ./my-skill               # Test locally
# Push to GitHub, then others can:
agr add your-username/my-skill

See Creating Skills for the full guide.
