skill-map

Map, inspect, and manage collections of interrelated Markdown files — skills, agents, commands, hooks, and notes that compose AI-agent ecosystems (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Obsidian vaults, docs sites).

Status: pre-MVP / preview release. Steps 0a (spec), 0b (kernel shell), 0c (UI prototype), 1a-1c (kernel + registry + orchestrator), 2 (first extensions), and 3 (UI design refinement) are complete; the CLI currently exposes sm scan as a stub (full scan lands at Step 4). See ROADMAP.md for the full execution plan and the canonical completeness marker. Subsequent versions follow the standard changeset flow.

Requirements

• Node.js ≥ 24.0 (active LTS since October 2025). Older versions are unsupported.
• Any platform Node 24 supports (Linux, macOS, Windows).

skill-map checks the runtime version at the first sm invocation and exits with a human-readable message if Node is too old — no silent partial runs.

If your system is on Node 22 or 20, install the latest LTS from nodejs.org (or via nvm, fnm, volta, …) before installing this package.

Install

# Global
npm install --global @skill-map/cli

# Or run without installing
npx @skill-map/cli --version

Both sm (short, daily use) and skill-map (full name, scripts) are registered as binaries after install. The package name is scoped (@skill-map/cli) to sit alongside @skill-map/spec under the same npm org; the binaries keep the unprefixed names for ergonomics.

Usage

sm --version                    # single-line version
sm version                      # multi-line matrix (sm / kernel / spec / runtime / db-schema)
sm --help                       # top-level help
sm scan [roots...] [--json]     # stub in 0b; full scan in Step 4

Exit codes follow spec/cli-contract.md:
