AI assets — skills, MCPs, agents, rules, commands, hooks — usually live inside a single Git repo. The moment you want them in another repo you copy-paste, and they drift out of sync with no source of truth. sx manages complex sharing and distribution of AI assets for real-world teams:
- Share across projects and teams — manage an asset once, install it into any repos or teams
- Share across clients, including the web ones — one asset installs into every major AI assistant
- No Git knowledge required — gives non-technical users easy access; the plumbing stays hidden
- Install the right assets, not all of them — scope to an org, repo, path, team, bot, or user, no context bloat
- Version, observe, and govern — update once; track adoption with
sx stats; audit access withsx audit
Install via Homebrew (macOS/Linux):
brew tap sleuth-io/tap
brew install sxOr via shell script:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sleuth-io/sx/main/install.sh | bashThen initialize in your vault or project:
sx initFrom here the workflow is three steps — manage your assets, distribute them, and govern what ships.
Add assets to your vault (sx auto-detects the type):
sx add /path/to/my-skill
sx add ~/.claude/skills/my-skill # an existing Claude Code skill
sx add code-review@claude-plugins-official # a plugin from a registryYour AI assets stay exactly as they are — sx just wraps them with metadata for versioning and stores them in its vault format.
Multiple vaults? Use profiles to switch between them:
sx profile add work # Add a new profile
sx profile use work # Switch to it
sx profile list # See all profilesSee what's actually used — track adoption and token usage across your team:
sx stats # adoption dashboard
sx stats --since 7d --json # machine-readable# Install everything scoped to you, into the current project
sx installInstall targets — pick who sees which asset:
sx install my-skill --org # everyone in the vault
sx install my-skill --repo github.com/acme/infra # only inside that repo
sx install my-skill --path github.com/acme/infra#docs/ # one path in a repo
sx install my-skill --team platform # every member of a team
sx install my-skill --user alice@acme.com # a single user
sx install my-skill --bot python-backend # a bot identity (CI runner, agent)See docs/scoping.md for the full overview and links to a per-scope doc for each install target.
Use your vault from claude.ai or chatgpt.com — expose it as an MCP endpoint via the skills.new relay:
sx cloud connect # opens skills.new, paste back the attach line
sx cloud serve # keep this running — Ctrl+C exits
sx cloud status # prints the MCP URL to paste into claude.ai / chatgpt.comThe relay forwards requests over a WebSocket — vault content stays local. See docs/cloud-relay.md.
Audit — every team and install mutation is recorded:
sx audit # recent team/install mutations
sx audit --actor alice@acme.com --since 30d --event install.setMigrate a whole vault (assets + versions, teams, bots, scopes, audit, usage):
sx vault copy --from skills-new --to git-vault # preview (read-only)
sx vault copy --from skills-new --to git-vault --yesSee docs/copy.md for directionality and what's lossy. A gated change-request flow (RBAC) is on the roadmap.
- Skills - Custom prompts and behaviors for specific tasks
- Rules - Coding standards and guidelines that apply to specific file types or paths
- Agents - Autonomous AI agents with specific goals
- Commands - Slash commands for quick actions
- Hooks - Automation triggers for lifecycle events
- MCP Servers (experimental) - Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for external integrations
- Plugins - Claude Code plugin bundles with commands, skills, and more
An AI agent is only as good as what it knows and what it's allowed to do. sx lets you describe that once — define a Bot and attach the agent's prompt plus the skills, rules, commands, hooks, and MCP servers it depends on — and install it unchanged across any client, coding or not.
- One definition, every tool — the same agent runs unchanged on every supported client, coding or not;
sxwrites each one's native format on install - Bundle the whole capability — skills, rules, commands, hooks, and MCP config travel together as versioned assets, not loose files scattered across repos and machines
- Decoupled from any one vendor — AI tools are commoditizing; the agents running on them shouldn't be locked in. Describe them in a portable format you own and carry them between tools as the landscape shifts
Choose the right distribution model for your team:
Perfect for easily sharing personal tools across multiple personal projects
sx init --type path --path my/vault/pathShare assets through a shared git vault
sx init --type git --repo git@github.com:yourteam/skills.gitCentralized management with a UI for discovery, creation, sharing, and usage analytics
sx init --type sleuthsx follows the manifest-and-lock pattern used by npm, cargo, and uv:
- Manifest (
sx.toml) — the vault's source of truth. Lists every managed asset, its install scopes (org,repo,path,team,bot,user), and team definitions (members, admins, repositories). Committed to git / path vaults. See docs/manifest-spec.md. - Lock file — a per-user resolved artifact.
sx installreads the manifest, resolves team and user scopes against the caller's git identity, and writes the result to the user's cache directory (~/<cache>/sx/lockfiles/). When the resolved lock changes, the previous file is rotated with a timestamp so old installs stay reproducible. - Audit + usage streams — every team/install mutation appends an
audit entry to
.sx/audit/YYYY-MM.jsonl; usage events append to.sx/usage/YYYY-MM.jsonl. Query them withsx audit/sx stats.
High level: manage assets in one vault, distribute them globally, per repo, per path, per team, per bot, or per user — auto-installing on new Claude Code sessions so everyone stays in sync — and govern every change through the audit and usage streams.
Everything the CLI does to a vault is also a package. Publish skills and
agents, manage bots and teams, and browse or download assets from your own
program against Skills.new, Git, or local Path vaults through one Client:
import "github.com/sleuth-io/sx/pkg/sxvault"
ctx := context.Background()
client, err := sxvault.OpenSkillsNew("https://app.skills.new", token)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
if err := client.PutSkillZip(ctx, sxvault.SkillZipSpec{
Name: "lint-helper", Version: "1.0.0", ZipData: zip,
}); err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}See docs/library.md for the full API guide.
