Your library is a directory on your machine where all your skills live. It’s the central place you manage everything from - both skills you’ve written yourself and ones you’ve pulled from GitHub.

​
Structure

~/my-skills/
  reseed.yaml          # configuration (sources + packs)
  skills/
    my-custom-skill/   # a skill you wrote
      SKILL.md
    frontend-design/   # a skill fetched from GitHub
      SKILL.md
      style-guide.md

​
Creating a library

reseed init ~/my-skills
This creates the directory structure and a reseed.yaml config file with commented-out examples. It also registers the library globally so reseed knows where to find it. You only need one library. All your skills (local and external) live here.

​
The library as a git repo

Your library can itself be a git repo. This is useful if you want to version your skills or share your collection across machines. Reseed doesn’t require this, but it works naturally since the library is just a directory of files.

​
Local vs external skills

  • Local skills are ones you create by adding a folder with a SKILL.md to skills/. Reseed doesn’t track these in reseed.yaml.
  • External skills are fetched from GitHub via reseed install. They’re tracked in reseed.yaml so reseed knows where they came from and can update them.
Both types are used the same way when adding to projects.
