Agents

Agent Skills is an open standard, so a conformant skill runs in any tool that implements it. Below are the 8 agents whose discovery paths we read from the vendor's own documentation and verified on 2026-08-11. 7 of them read ~/.agents/skills/; Claude Code does not, so it installs from the marketplace.

Verified paths documented and sourced

Claude Code

Anthropic own path

user: ~/.claude/skills/
project: .claude/skills/

Reads only its own directories and installed plugins. Gets the marketplace instead, which is better here anyway: versioned installs and one-command updates.

Vendor documentation ↗

Codex

OpenAI shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills//etc/codex/skills
project: .agents/skills (cwd, parent, repo root)

Walks up from the working directory. Follows symlinked skill folders.

Vendor documentation ↗

Cursor

Anysphere shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.cursor/skills/~/.claude/skills/~/.codex/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.cursor/skills/.claude/skills/.codex/skills/

Also discovers skills in nested project subdirectories.

Vendor documentation ↗

Gemini CLI

Google shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.gemini/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.gemini/skills/

The neutral path takes precedence over the vendor path at both levels.

Vendor documentation ↗

GitHub Copilot

GitHub shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.copilot/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.github/skills/.claude/skills/

Same discovery in VS Code agent mode.

Vendor documentation ↗

OpenCode

SST shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.config/opencode/skills/~/.claude/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.opencode/skills/.claude/skills/

Walks up from the working directory to the git worktree root.

Vendor documentation ↗

Amp

Sourcegraph shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.config/agents/skills/~/.config/amp/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.claude/skills/

Uses the first skill with a given frontmatter name, in documented precedence order.

Vendor documentation ↗

Goose

Block shared path

user: ~/.agents/skills/~/.config/goose/skills/~/.claude/skills/
project: .agents/skills/.goose/skills/.claude/skills/

Treats the neutral path as the recommended standard; vendor paths are fallbacks.

Also compatible implements the same standard

These tools read the same SKILL.md. We have not verified their install paths ourselves, so they are listed rather than documented — follow the vendor link for placement.
