This skill should be used when checking for naming conflicts between local skills (~/.claude/skills) and plugin-provided skills (~/.claude/plugins). Use to identify duplicate or similarly named skills that may cause inconsistent agent behavior.
/plugin marketplace add plinde/claude-plugins/plugin install check-skill-conflicts@plinde-pluginsThis skill inherits all available tools. When active, it can use any tool Claude has access to.
scripts/check-conflicts.shIdentifies naming conflicts between local Claude Code skills and plugin-provided skills.
When a skill exists in both ~/.claude/skills/ (local) and ~/.claude/plugins/ (plugin), agents may:
# Run conflict check
~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plinde-plugins/check-skill-conflicts/skills/check-skill-conflicts/scripts/check-conflicts.sh
# Verbose output (shows all skills found)
~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plinde-plugins/check-skill-conflicts/skills/check-skill-conflicts/scripts/check-conflicts.sh --verbose
# JSON output for programmatic use
~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plinde-plugins/check-skill-conflicts/skills/check-skill-conflicts/scripts/check-conflicts.sh --json
foo vs foo-skill)SKILL CONFLICT CHECK
====================
Local Skills: 45 found in ~/.claude/skills/
Plugin Skills: 12 found in ~/.claude/plugins/
EXACT MATCHES (High Priority):
⚠️ kyverno-version-lookup
Local: ~/.claude/skills/kyverno-version-lookup/
Plugin: ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/plinde-plugins/kyverno-version-lookup/
SIMILAR NAMES (Review Recommended):
⚡ plugin-creator ~ plugin-dev
Local: ~/.claude/skills/plugin-creator/
Plugin: ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/.../plugin-dev/
No conflicts: ✅ (if none found)
When conflicts are found:
Remove local skill - If plugin version is preferred
cd ~/.claude/skills && git rm -r <skill-name>
Uninstall plugin - If local version is preferred
/plugin uninstall <plugin-name>
Rename local skill - If both are needed but different
mv ~/.claude/skills/<old-name> ~/.claude/skills/<new-name>
