# 🧩 Squad Skills — AI Plugin Marketplace

[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-blue.svg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tamirdresher/squad-skills/main/LICENSE)
[![Plugins](https://img.shields.io/badge/Plugins-24-green.svg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tamirdresher/squad-skills/main/)

**Reusable knowledge plugins for AI agents.** Think of it as *npm for AI agent skills* — structured knowledge modules that any AI system can consume to learn new capabilities.

> 🎯 **Not locked to any framework.** These plugins work with GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Squad, or any LLM-based agent. A plugin is just a well-structured markdown file that teaches an AI agent how to do something.

## 💡 What Is This?

AI agents are powerful, but they don't know everything out of the box. This marketplace provides **drop-in knowledge plugins** — each one teaches your AI agent a specific skill:

- 🖥️ **Automate Microsoft Teams** UI when the Graph API isn't enough
- 📡 **Bridge Teams messages** into GitHub issues automatically
- 🔄 **Coordinate work** across machines using Git as a task queue
- 📋 **Manage project boards** with proper lifecycle transitions
- 🤝 **Distribute tasks** across agents without conflicts

Each plugin is a self-contained `SKILL.md` — structured markdown that any AI agent can read and act on. No SDKs, no dependencies, no lock-in.

## 🚀 Installation

Every plugin's core is a single file: **`SKILL.md`**. The fastest way to install plugins is with the **Copilot CLI plugin system**.

### GitHub Copilot (CLI & VS Code) — Recommended

```bash
# One-time: register the marketplace
copilot plugin marketplace add tamirdresher/squad-skills

# Install any plugin
copilot plugin install teams-ui-automation@squad-skills

# Or install directly from the repo (no marketplace registration needed)
copilot plugin install tamirdresher/squad-skills:plugins/teams-ui-automation
```

Plugins are installed to `~/.copilot/state/installed-plugins/` and activate automatically. Manage them with:

```bash
copilot plugin list                    # View installed plugins
copilot plugin update PLUGIN-NAME      # Update to latest version
copilot plugin uninstall PLUGIN-NAME   # Remove plugin
```

> 💡 In VS Code Copilot Chat, `/plugin install` works in interactive sessions too.

### Squad (GitHub Copilot Squad)

```bash
# Copy the entire plugin folder — Squad agents auto-discover from .squad/skills/
cp -r plugins/teams-ui-automation /path/to/your/repo/.squad/skills/
```

### Claude Projects

1. Open your Claude Project settings → **Project Knowledge**
2. Paste the contents of `SKILL.md` as a knowledge document

### ChatGPT / Custom GPTs

1. Go to **Configure** → **Knowledge**
2. Upload the `SKILL.md` file

### Any Other Agent

Just read the `SKILL.md` file. That's it. It's structured markdown with:
- **YAML frontmatter** — metadata, triggers, confidence level
- **Recipes** — step-by-step procedures the agent can follow
- **Error recovery** — what to do when things go wrong
- **Anti-patterns** — common mistakes to avoid

```python
# Example: Load a plugin in your custom agent
with open("plugins/teams-ui-automation/SKILL.md") as f:
    skill_knowledge = f.read()

# Add to your agent's system prompt or context
agent.add_context(skill_knowledge)
```

## 🧠 Philosophy

- **Knowledge, not code.** Plugins are structured documentation, not libraries. They teach agents *how* to do things, not *what* to execute.
- **Platform-agnostic.** If it can read markdown, it can use these plugins.
- **Self-contained.** Each plugin has everything an agent needs — context, recipes, error recovery, and anti-patterns.
- **Community-driven.** The best automation patterns come from real-world use.
