A cross-platform desktop app for managing AI Agent Skills
Install and maintain Skills across projects and agents.
Organize reusable Skill Libraries and read documentation with Simplified Chinese translations.
- Discover and install: Browse available Skills with their sources, documentation, and available audit information. Install from GitHub, GitLab, other Git repositories, local directories, Well-known URLs, raw
SKILL.mdfiles, or ZIP, tar, and tar.gz downloads. - Browse and maintain: Read, update, and remove installed Skills, including installations found only in Agent directories. Skills without source records remain available for local management.
- Skill Libraries: Maintain reusable collections, apply them in priority order to global or project locations, and synchronize member changes. Reapply a library configuration when managed links need repair.
- Projects and agents: View global and project Skills, filter by agent, adjust associations, and copy Project Skills to other projects. Use the included agent definitions or add your own.
- Bilingual reading: Read original content alongside Simplified Chinese translations in Skills, Library members, and Discover. Choose Google, Microsoft, or an OpenAI-compatible service, and customize translation colors.
- Cross-platform management: Use Skill Deck on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Windows users can enable WSL support to manage Skills in installed WSL 2 distributions.
The app provides English and Chinese interfaces, light and dark themes, and restores the main window's size, position, and maximized state when reopened.

Download the latest release from GitHub Releases and choose the installer for your platform:
| Platform | Installer |
|---|---|
| Windows x64 | skill-deck_x.x.x_windows_x64-setup.exe; stable releases also provide skill-deck_x.x.x_windows_x64.msi |
| macOS Apple Silicon | skill-deck_x.x.x_macos_aarch64.dmg |
| macOS Intel | skill-deck_x.x.x_macos_x64.dmg |
| Linux x64 | skill-deck_x.x.x_linux_amd64.deb, skill-deck_x.x.x_linux_x86_64.rpm, or skill-deck_x.x.x_linux_amd64.AppImage |
The x.x.x placeholder represents the selected version. Windows prereleases include only the .exe installer.
macOS installers currently lack an Apple Developer ID signature. After confirming that your download came from this project's Release page, you can use System Settings > Privacy & Security > Open Anyway if macOS blocks opening the app. See Apple's instructions.
Choose Add in the global or project section of the Skills page to install at that location; add a project to Skill Deck before using it as a target. You can also select a Skill in Discover and choose Install. The wizard defaults to the global location and lets you select an added project instead. On Windows with WSL enabled, switch to the target distribution before starting.
When starting from Skills, search online or enter a source. Discover pre-fills the selected Skill's source. Examples of manual input:
https://github.com/vercel-labs/skillsvercel-labs/skills(GitHub shorthand)https://example.com/SKILL.mdor a ZIP/tar archive URL/path/to/local/skillorC:\path\to\skill(a local directory on the corresponding system)
You can also paste a skills CLI skills add command. Skill Deck parses its source, Skill names, and target agents, then lets you confirm and adjust them before installation:
npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills --skill web-design-guidelines -a claude-codeSelect the Skills, agent associations, and installation mode. Review the actual locations, existing content to replace, and source notices, then confirm. Downloads that redirect to another host require confirmation of the final host. Changing the main window's location does not change an open wizard's target.
After installation, use Skills to read content, manage agents, check for updates, or remove a Skill. To maintain a separate collection, add members on the Libraries page, then apply it through Manage Skill Libraries in the global or project section.
- Skills without source records and Skills from local directories remain locally manageable and do not participate in remote update checks. Private GitHub source checks can use existing local Git credentials.
- Direct downloads support new installations without a same-name conflict and do not provide updates. Remove the existing Skill before installing it again.
- Updates preserve existing agent associations and show the affected locations before confirmation. Common content is always included, independent copies can be selected, and links follow their target content. Same-name Library versions are maintained in their own libraries.
- Directory links within a source or oversized sources may prevent an update. The app explains the reason and preserves installed content. See update checking for the full conditions and Skill lifecycle for installation and maintenance rules.
