# Skill Desktop

> The professional AI agent skill management platform. Open source, free forever.

Skill Desktop is a native desktop application built with Tauri (Rust) and React for AI Agent developers to manage, organize, and distribute agent skills with enterprise-grade tooling.

## What is Skill Desktop?

Skill Desktop solves the problem of managing AI agent skills (prompts, tools, configurations) across multiple AI systems. Instead of manually copying files and editing JSON configs, Skill Desktop provides a unified interface to:

- Organize skills in a central library
- Create isolated workspaces for different projects
- Export configurations for various AI agents (Claude, GPT, etc.)
- Audit security permissions before enabling skills

## Key Features

### Library Manager
Your central hub for all skills. Auto-scan directories, index metadata, real-time sync on file changes. Smart search by name, tags, or permissions.

### Workspace Spaces
Create isolated environments for different projects. One-click context switching with symlink magic. Keep work and personal AI configurations separate.

### Skill Hub
Discover and import skills from the community. URL import, GitHub integration, MCP (Model Context Protocol) support.

### Sandbox Debugger
Test skills in a safe, isolated environment. Mock execution, live logging, performance metrics. Debug before deploying to production.

### Config Exporter
Generate claude_desktop_config.json and more. Export configs for Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, or custom agents with one click.

### Security Auditing
Every skill declares its permissions. Review file_read, network, shell_exec before enabling. Full visibility and control over what your AI agents can do.
