# Context7 Skills ## Overview Use the Context7 CLI to manage skills via `ctx7 skills` (or `npx ctx7 skills`). Keep commands short, explicit, and limited to search/install/list/remove. ## Scope - Covers only Context7 CLI skill management: `ctx7 skills search|install|list|remove`. - Does not cover Context7 MCP docs, agents, or API tools. ## Quick Reference | Action | Command | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | | Search | `ctx7 skills search <query>` | Use multiple keywords if needed. `npx ctx7` is fine. | | Install | `ctx7 skills install <repo> [skill ...] [--cursor|--claude|--global]` | Repo often `/anthropics/skills`. Omit skill to install interactively. | | List | `ctx7 skills list [--cursor|--claude|--global]` | Lists installed skills for a client. | | Remove | `ctx7 skills remove <skill> [--cursor|--claude|--global]` | Removes a skill by name. | ## Implementation Example session: ```bash # Search for skills about pytorch npx ctx7 skills search pytorch # Install the uv skill from the registry repo ctx7 skills install /anthropics/skills uv # List installed skills and find slide-creator in the output ctx7 skills list --claude ``` ## Rationalization Table | Excuse | Reality | | --- | --- | | "I can just use ctx7 search" | The command is `ctx7 skills search`. The `skills` subcommand is required. | | "This is about docs, so use MCP tools" | This skill is only for CLI skill management. Stick to `ctx7 skills`. | | "Client flags are optional, I can skip them" | Use `--cursor`, `--claude`, or `--global` when the user specifies a target client. | ## Red Flags - STOP and Correct - Using `ctx7 search` or `ctx7 install` without the `skills` subcommand - Answering with MCP docs or API tools instead of CLI commands - Ignoring a requested client target (Cursor/Claude/global) ## Common Mistakes - Confusing `ctx7` with `npx ctx7` when the CLI is not installed. - Omitting the repository path for install (e.g., `/anthropics/skills`). - Assuming `list` filters by name; it only lists, so scan the output.
