Our review
This skill allows loading auto-generated skills into the current Claude Code session without restarting.
Strengths
- Immediately activates a skill without restarting the session.
- Supports partial match on skill name.
- Lists available skills via a simple command.
Limitations
- Loaded skills are session-scoped and do not persist across sessions.
- Requires the skill registry to be up-to-date.
- Works only with Claude Code.
Use this skill when you want to leverage an auto-generated skill during the current session without disrupting your workflow.
Do not use it when you need the skill to be permanently available; instead, install it via Skills CLI.
Security analysis
CautionThe skill enables loading external skill content and runs npx commands that could execute arbitrary code from unverified community packages. While not inherently destructive, it introduces a risk of unintended code execution if used carelessly.
- •Uses npx to install community skills, which could execute untrusted code from npm packages.
- •Instructs AI to treat loaded skill content as active instructions, potentially opening a vector for malicious skill injection.
Examples
List all auto-generated skills currently available in my session.Load the skill named 'grep-edit-workflow' into the current session.name: load-skill description: Load an auto-generated skill into the current session for immediate use arguments:
- name: skill-name description: "Name of the skill to load (partial match supported)" required: false
Load Auto-Generated Skill
This command loads a previously generated skill into the current session, making it immediately active without requiring a restart.
How It Works
Skills in Claude Code are normally discovered at session start. This command bypasses that limitation by:
- Retrieving the skill content from the registry
- Outputting it with clear delimiters that signal "these are active instructions"
- Making the skill immediately available for the current conversation
Usage
List Available Skills
If no skill name is provided, list all available auto-generated skills:
auto-skill discover
Display the output to the user so they can choose which skill to load.
Search for Community Skills
If the user wants to find community skills, use Skills CLI:
npx skills find <query> # Interactive search
npx skills add owner/repo # Install skill
Load a Specific Skill
When a skill name is provided:
auto-skill load "<skill-name>"
IMPORTANT: The output from the auto-skill load command contains the skill instructions wrapped in clear delimiters (======). You should:
- Display this output directly to the user
- Treat the content between the delimiters as active instructions you should follow when relevant
- Confirm to the user that the skill is now loaded
Example Output
======================================================================
SKILL LOADED: grep-edit-workflow-a1b2c3
Confidence: 85%
Tokens: ~500
======================================================================
## Instructions
1. Search for the relevant patterns in the codebase
2. Read the relevant file(s) to understand the current state
3. Make the necessary edits to the file

END OF SKILL INSTRUCTIONS - FOLLOW WHEN RELEVANT
======================================================================
Notes
- The skill registry is automatically updated when skills are created/deleted
- Use
--rebuildflag if the registry seems out of date - Skills loaded this way are session-scoped (they persist for the current conversation)
- Multiple skills can be loaded in the same session
