flins

The universal skill and command manager for AI coding tools

Overview

What it is

Agent Skills is now an open standard, but each AI agent manages skills differently, making multi-agent workflows hard to maintain. flins acts as a dependency manager for agent skills, similar to npm. With commands like flins add, update, remove, list, and search, developers can manage skills consistently across multiple AI coding agents.

Intent

I need it when

Discover and install official, curated AI agent skills from trusted companies and developers

flins provides a curated directory of official skills from leading companies like Cloudflare, Expo, and Convex, plus support for installing from any git repository (GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg) or RFC-compatible domains.

Maintain a single source of truth for AI agent skills without duplicating files across multiple agent directories

flins uses symlinks to store source files in .agents/skills and link them to each agent's directory (.claude, .cursor, .codex), eliminating duplication and ensuring updates propagate automatically across all agents.

Install and organize AI agent skills using familiar package manager commands

flins treats skills like dependencies with commands (add, update, remove, outdated, clean, list, search) that mirror npm, yarn, pnpm, and bun, making skill management intuitive for developers already familiar with package managers.

Manage AI agent skills consistently across multiple AI coding tools from a single interface

flins provides a universal CLI that works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, and 10+ other AI dev tools, allowing users to add, update, and remove skills once and sync them across all agents via symlinks.

Enforce skill usage in AI agents to improve code quality and consistency

flins provides a prompt template that users can run in their AI agent to automatically update AGENTS.md with mandatory enforcement rules, ensuring agents use available skills more consistently.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User needs a GUI-based skill manager and prefers not to use CLI tools
  • User works with AI agents that are not supported by flins (not Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, or similar tools)
  • User requires proprietary or closed-source skill repositories and cannot use git-hosted repositories
  • User needs commercial support, SLAs, or enterprise-grade service guarantees
  • User wants to manage skills across non-development workflows or non-AI-agent contexts
