`prismctl skill`

Manage Claude Code skills (default directory: ~/.claude/skills/).

Prismctl only manages the on-disk files/directories (still following dry-run / --apply and the --home sandbox). Skill loading/execution behavior is defined by Claude Code itself.

List

bash

prismctl skill list [--home <PATH>]

The output includes:

•Prismctl built-in skills (and whether each is installed)
•Installed skills on your machine (parsed from each ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md frontmatter name/description)

Install a built-in skill

bash

prismctl skill install --name <NAME> [--home <PATH>] [--dry-run|--apply]

Install writes (overwrites) files under ~/.claude/skills/<NAME>/.

Create a skill template

bash

prismctl skill create --name <NAME> [--home <PATH>] [--dry-run|--apply]

Create does not overwrite an existing SKILL.md (it is "write-if-missing"), so you can rerun it without clobbering your local edits.

Remove a skill (dangerous)

bash

prismctl skill remove --name <NAME> [--home <PATH>] [--dry-run|--apply] [--yes]

WARNING: Only --apply performs the deletion; when applying, --yes is required.

Naming rules

To prevent path traversal, --name only allows ASCII letters/digits plus - and _.
