aipkg CLI

Install AI packs (MCPs, Agents, Skills) with one command.

Installation

Install the aipkg CLI globally using your preferred package manager:

``bash
npm install -g @arctic-ai/ai-pkg
`

`bash
pnpm add -g @arctic-ai/ai-pkg
`

`bash
bun add -g @arctic-ai/ai-pkg
`

Basic Usage

Install packs from the registry using the add command:

`bash
aipkg add @anthropic/code-simplifier
`

The CLI will prompt you to select which tool to install to (Arctic, Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) and whether to install locally or globally.

Installation Sources

$3

Install packs from the official aipkg registry:

`bash
aipkg add @anthropic/code-simplifier
aipkg add @lst97/typescript-pro
`

$3

Install skills directly from any Git repository. The CLI will clone the repo and discover all SKILL.md files:

`bash
aipkg add https://github.com/user/my-skills
aipkg add git@github.com:user/my-skills.git
`

This is great for installing private skills or skills that aren't in the registry yet.

$3

Install a skill directly from a URL pointing to a .md file:

`bash
aipkg add https://example.com/skills/my-skill.md
aipkg add https://raw.githubusercontent.com/user/repo/main/SKILL.md
`

Perfect for sharing skills via gists, pastebins, or any web server.

$3

Install skills directly from Context7, a platform for sharing AI skills and documentation:

`bash
aipkg add https://context7.com/skills/owner/repo/skill-name
aipkg add https://context7.com/skills/anthropics/skills/frontend-design
`

The CLI will automatically fetch and install skills from Context7 URLs.

$3

Install skills from your local filesystem - either a single file or a directory containing skills:

`bash
aipkg add ./path/to/skill.md
aipkg add ./my-skills-folder/
`

The CLI will scan directories for SKILL.md files and install all discovered skills.

CLI Options

Common options for the aipkg add command:

- -t, --tool - Target tool (arctic, opencode, claude, claude-code, cursor, vscode, codex, gemini)
- -g, --global - Install globally (user-wide) instead of project-local
- -m, --mode - Agent mode for OpenCode/Arctic (primary, subagent, all)

Install globally to Arctic

aipkg add @anthropic/code-simplifier -t arctic -g

Install from GitHub to Claude Code

aipkg add https://github.com/user/skills -t claude-code
