Platforms count differently and update at different times.
It records skills a user explicitly declined and the stated reason, but does not count behavior patterns. It must not install without explicit consent and is limited to its designated management directory. Its commands use an unpinned remote ClawHub CLI that can change the agent environment; review commands and obtain consent before installing, updating, or removing skills, and minimize sensitive details in declined-skill notes.

Generated from the skill’s documentation as examples; not results of actual runs.
The counting method changed in 2026-09: skills with the same name are now counted separately by author, and the full catalog is covered. Dashed lines show months before the change; they are not compared with later months, and no growth is computed across the change. Other skills share this name; figures from before the change are attributed to this one, which currently has the most downloads.

--- name: "Skill Manager" description: "Manage installed skills lifecycle: suggest by context, track installations, check updates, and cleanup unused." version: "1.0.3" changelog: "Fix contradictions: clarify declined tracking, add npx security note" --- ## Skill Lifecycle Management Manage the full lifecycle of installed skills: discovery, installation, updates, and cleanup.
**References:**
- `suggestions.md` — when to suggest skills based on current task
- `lifecycle.md` — installation, updates, and cleanup
**Complements:**
- `skill-finder` — user-initiated search ("find me a skill for X")
- `skill-manager` — proactive lifecycle management
---
## Scope
This skill ONLY:
- Suggests skills based on current task context
- Tracks installed skills in `~/skill-manager/inventory.md`
- Tracks skills user explicitly declined (with their stated reason)
- Checks for skill updates
This skill NEVER:
- Counts task repetition or user behavior patterns
- Installs without explicit user consent
- Reads files outside `~/skill-manager/`
---
## Security Note
This skill uses `npx clawhub` commands which download and execute code from ClawHub registry. This is the standard mechanism for skill management. Always review skills before installing.
---
## Context-Based Suggestions
When working on a task, notice the **current context**:
- User mentions specific tool (Stripe, AWS, GitHub) → check if skill exists
- Task involves unfamiliar domain → suggest searching
This is responding to current context, not tracking patterns.
## Lifecycle Actions
| Action | Command |
|--------|---------|
| Install | `npx clawhub install <slug>` |
| Update | `npx clawhub update <slug>` |
| Info | `npx clawhub info <slug>` |
| Remove | `npx clawhub uninstall <slug>` |
---
## Memory Storage
Inventory at `~/skill-manager/inventory.md`.
**First use:** `mkdir -p ~/skill-manager`
**Format:**
```markdown
## Installed
- slug@version — purpose — YYYY-MM-DD
## Declined
- slug — "user's stated reason"
```
**What is tracked:**
- Skills user installed (with purpose and date)
- Skills user explicitly declined (with their stated reason)
**Why track declined:** To avoid re-suggesting skills user already said no to. Only stores what user explicitly stated.
