Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/rand/cc-polymath --skill discover-distributed- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads discover-distributed automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
