npx-skills
The npx skills CLI
(https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills)
installs agent skills from a GitHub source
into the host project's .claude/skills/ directory,
and writes a project-level skills-lock.json recording what was
installed.
Lock files
| File | Scope | Checked in | Per-skill fields |
|---|---|---|---|
skills-lock.json (repo root) |
project | yes | source, sourceType, skillPath, computedHash |
~/.agents/.skill-lock.json |
global | no | written when -g is used |
The project lockfile is the source of truth for which skills the repo expects to be present.
