What is a GitHub skill-group manager?

A GitHub skill-group manager organizes SKILL.md Agent Skills from GitHub or local folders into scenario profiles so an agent runtime loads only the skills needed for the current task.

Is agent-skill-groups an MCP server or a plugin?

agent-skill-groups is primarily a CLI and repository organizer for Agent Skills. It can ship a small plugin entry, but the core model is runtime-aware skill grouping, not an MCP tool server.

GitHub skill-group manager for Agent Skills

agent-skill-groups is a GitHub skill-group manager and GitHub agent-skill-group manager for developers who keep many local SKILL.md Agent Skills.

It supports OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and generic Agent Skills layouts. The tool scans skill folders, suggests scenario groups, writes managed agent memory snippets, renders session-load context packs for the current conversation, backs up state, switches profiles, and restores the original layout.

When To Use It

You have many Agent Skills and do not want all of them active in every agent session.
You want repeatable groups such as core, research, frontend-browser, ctf-web, or desktop-media.
You need one workflow that can work across Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and plain local skill roots.
You want a small managed block in AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md so future sessions know how to load and unload skill groups.

Fastest Test

pipx install git+https://github.com/go165/agent-skill-groups.git
agent-skill-groups demo --json

The demo creates a temporary sample skill repository, runs the reversible grouping workflow, and prints ok: true when it can initialize, back up, switch profiles, write memory, and restore successfully.

Current Conversation Loading

Use session-load when the current conversation needs a disabled scenario group immediately. It prints a context pack from active roots or the disabled pool without moving directories.

agent-skill-groups session-load --config groups.json --runtime codex research

Use session-unload later in the same conversation to stop applying that group without moving directories.

agent-skill-groups session-unload --config groups.json --runtime codex research

Use profile only when native filesystem discovery should change after a runtime reload, rescan, or new session.
