LocalSkills is a platform for creating, sharing, and installing AI agent skills across your team. It integrates with popular AI coding tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Copilot, Codex, OpenCode, and Aider. Instead of each team member reinventing their own sets of instructions or prompts, you can publish standardized skills — essentially rules or markdown files — that everyone can use with a simple CLI command. The tool is built for teams that rely on AI-assisted coding and want consistency across their workflows.

To get started, you install the CLI via npm and publish a skill file (like `api-rules.md`) either publicly or to your team. The platform supports SAML 2.0 SSO and SCIM directory sync, which means you can manage access with your existing identity provider. It also provides download tracking, audit logging, and API tokens for programmatic control. The key distinction is that LocalSkills is not an AI model itself — it's a management layer for the prompts and rules that guide AI coding assistants, making collaboration and governance straightforward.

This tool is most useful for engineering teams that use AI coding tools extensively and want to standardize their agent behavior. For example, you can publish a set of rules for API design patterns, security guidelines, or code style preferences, and everyone on the team automatically gets the latest version. It also works well for organizations that need to enforce compliance or review how AI agents are being used. If you're tired of sharing prompts via Slack or email, LocalSkills offers a more structured, team-friendly approach.
