Skill

install-chat-skills

Install workbench-* plugin skills into Claude Chat (Mac app) via .skill packaging. Discovers all eligible skills in installed @claude-workbench plugins (excluding workbench-core itself), packages them with skill-creator's package_skill.py, and opens each .skill file with the Mac app to trigger the install dialog. Use this skill whenever the SessionStart warmup output mentions new Chat-installable skills, or to manually re-sync Chat skills after installing or updating a workbench plugin.

Install Chat Skills

Run the install-chat-skills script. It handles the full discover → package → open flow and updates the state file so the SessionStart notice clears.

bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/install-chat-skills.sh"

What it does:

Scans ~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json for @claude-workbench plugins (excluding workbench-core itself).

For each plugin, finds skills under skills/<name>/SKILL.md that have name: in their frontmatter (the skill-creator validator requires it).

Packages each skill as a .skill file in /tmp/workbench-chat-skills/ via python3 -m scripts.package_skill from the skill-creator plugin.

Opens each .skill with open -a Claude — the Mac app handles the file extension and shows an install dialog.

Records what was installed (with versions) in ~/.claude-workbench/chat-skills-state.json so the SessionStart notice clears.

The user confirms each install dialog as it appears. After the script finishes, verify in Claude Chat that the skills appear and trigger correctly.

If skill-creator isn't installed, the script will print a one-line install command — run that first, then re-invoke this skill.
