How to share a Claude skill
Made your own Claude Code skill and want to hand it to someone? Turn its SKILL.md into a one-line install command and send it to anyone — they paste it and the skill installs into their ~/.claude/skills/. The fastest way is Quick Share: paste your file (or a GitHub link) and copy the command. No repo, no marketplace listing.
Already made a skill? Paste your SKILL.md into Quick Share and get your shareable install command in seconds.
Open Quick ShareThe four steps
1. Find your skill file
Your skill lives at ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md — a single markdown file with YAML frontmatter (name + description) and the instructions. That one file is everything you need to share.
2. Turn it into a link with Quick Share
Open Quick Share, paste the SKILL.md (or a GitHub link to it), and give it a short name. We run a quick safety check and host it at a private, unguessable URL — it never gets listed in the marketplace.
3. Copy the one-line command
You get the standard install command — a mkdir + curl one-liner that drops the skill into ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md. It's the same format every AugmentClaude skill uses.
4. Send it to anyone
Paste the command into a message, a doc, or your team chat. Whoever runs it installs your skill in seconds — no account or marketplace needed. Only people you send it to can find the link.
The command you send looks like: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/<name> && curl -fsSL <your-link> -o ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md
Common questions
What's the easiest way to share a Claude skill?
Use Quick Share: paste your SKILL.md and copy the one-line install command it gives you. Send that command to anyone and they install your skill in seconds — no GitHub repo or marketplace listing required.
Can I share a skill that isn't on GitHub?
Yes. If your skill is just a SKILL.md on your machine, paste it into Quick Share and we host it for you at a private link. You don't need a repo, a gist, or any account beyond a free sign-in.
How do I share a skill privately, without listing it publicly?
Quick Share hosts your skill at a private, unguessable URL — only people you send the command to can install it, and it never appears in the public catalog. If you'd rather make it public, use Submit instead.
How do I let someone install my skill in one command?
Share the one-line command Quick Share generates. It's a mkdir + curl that downloads your SKILL.md into ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ — the same one-paste install every skill on AugmentClaude uses.
What's the difference between sharing and submitting a skill?
Sharing (Quick Share) gives you a private link to send to specific people; nothing is listed. Submitting (Submit) publishes your skill to the public AugmentClaude catalog so anyone can discover and install it. Both are free.
What file format can I share?
A single SKILL.md (Markdown) — frontmatter plus instructions. If you share via a GitHub link it must point to a .md file. Folders, zips, and other file types aren't supported.
