Skill Flow: developer tool for Hermes Agent

CLI and macOS app for installing, updating and sharing agent skills across many coding agents

What Skill Flow does

Skill Flow treats a source repository as one workflow group instead of installing skills one at a time. A source can be local, a Git repository or skills.sh; you inspect it, select skills and deploy them to several targets. The README lists Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, MiniMax Code, Kimi Code, WorkBuddy, CodeBuddy, Trae, Windsurf and ZCode among the targets. It aims to fix agents expecting different locations, updates drifting silently and unmanaged folders piling up.

State is explicit: manifest.json stores intent and lock.json stores resolved inventory and deployments. Commands include add, list, config, find, update and doctor, with repair-source, repair-state and repair-targets for broken projections. An Ink-based terminal UI handles configuration, and a SwiftUI desktop app for macOS 15 or later adds a main window, an import view and a menu bar quick config. The command skill-flow bridge --json gives the desktop app a machine-readable entry point.
