Installation¶
As a Claude Code marketplace¶
The native route. Claude Code reads the marketplace manifest and manages plugins for you.
# From the Git remote
/plugin marketplace add adammatthewsteinberger/vibey-skills
# ...or from a local clone
/plugin marketplace add /path/to/vibey-skills
# Browse, then install what you want
/plugin
/plugin install security-principles@vibey-skills
From PyPI¶
The same skills ship as a Python package with no runtime dependencies, so uvx can run
it without a resolution step. Useful when you want the skills in a harness other than
Claude Code, or you would rather not clone.
# Run without installing
uvx vibey-skills install --all
# ...or install the CLI persistently
uv tool install vibey-skills
pip install vibey-skills
Requires Python 3.10 or newer.
Upgrading from vibe-engineering-skills
The package was renamed to vibey-skills in 2.0.0. pip uninstall vibe-engineering-skills
(or uv tool uninstall vibe-engineering-skills), then install vibey-skills as above. The
vibe-skills command still works as a deprecated alias; vibe-engineering-skills (the long
command) was removed. If you added the marketplace under its old name, re-add it as
adammatthewsteinberger/vibey-skills and install plugins as <plugin>@vibey-skills.
Where skills get installed¶
install copies each skill directory to ~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/ by default,
creating the directory if it does not exist. Override with --dest:
Existing directories are skipped, never overwritten — see Usage.
