Why not a private GitHub repo? It's hard to believe that the technical team could not write 1 skill which all non-technical teams could use to sync their skills to GitHub.

Same thoughts. Get a team github repository and add the marketplace.

I can't think of anything worse than sharing skills via Dropbox. The version management and AIBoM problems that generates is extremely painful. There's no way to track which version LLM is being used or match it against the skill, and people will likely load up too many skills. You don't have to expose git repos to end users to use git, or some other database, to provision skills.

It would probably be worse to fax them to your teammates

I mean

Honestly from a BoM and version control standpoint, the fax might work out to be superior… they come timestamped; pop them in a filing cabinet, and…

What's wrong with git?

Absolutely nothing, if it fits your usecase, but how do you handle e.g. reusing the same skill in multiple repos? Are you manually keeping all copies in sync?

Not that i recommend it or anything but git submodules would probably work.

Legitimately, it would work better. I could bulk fax Skills to each of the branch offices on Monday afternoon in preparation for the AI teleconference bridge meeting at 8AM. They can fax back any suggested improvements on Friday.

Because the thermal paper fades you would need freshly faxed Skills every few weeks or the turbo encabulator would misfeed when they were loaded. In fact, I'd have the local steno pool ladies feed in a weekly fax with authorisation codes for each Skill, and without that it just wouldn't load.

Y2K technology for the win.

We've adopted a simple/similar Dropbox-based approach for skills and rules - each person's ~/.claude/skills is actually symlinked to a folder just for them inside a shared Dropbox folder, one that others on our (small) team can see and edit as well. This solves a set of problems around people writing skills that reference artifacts or other skills that only exist on their system, and/or that reference their own name/…
