README

Claude Skills Manager

A small web app for managing the skills in `~/.claude/skills`. It runs on your own machine and opens in your browser: see every skill you have installed, what state each one is in, and change that state without hand-editing `settings.json`.

Nothing is hosted anywhere and nothing is uploaded. The server runs on `127.0.0.1` for as long as you have the page open, reads and writes files in your own `~/.claude` folder, and stops on its own once you close the tab.

Windows, macOS and Linux. Free, MIT licensed, and no dependencies: the whole app is Node's standard library, down to the icon.

Install

One command, the same on every platform:

npx claude-skills-manager

That is the whole thing. It downloads, starts, and opens in your browser. Needs [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) 18 or newer, and nothing else.

Launching it again while it's already running reopens the existing tab rather than starting a second copy.

**Stopping it.** Use **Quit** in the top right, or just close the tab. Quit stops it at once. Closing the tab takes a little longer: the page says goodbye on its way out, and the server then stops at its next check, which is within about half a minute. It never lingers in the background, and reloading is safe.

A shortcut instead of a command

If you would rather launch it from your Start menu, Dock or app launcher, install it properly first so it has a permanent home:

npm i -g claude-skills-manager
claude-skills-manager install-shortcut

That writes a Start-menu entry on Windows, an app bundle in `~/Applications` on macOS, and a `.desktop` entry on Linux. Add `--desktop` for a desktop copy too, and `uninstall-shortcut` removes them again.
