Description
copilotkit-self-update is an agent skill from the CopilotKit project's skills collection, listed on skills.sh. It refreshes the CopilotKit agent skills themselves. The SKILL.md files are the instructions that teach an agent about CopilotKit, and this skill updates, refreshes or reinstalls them. The command it runs is npx skills add copilotkit/CopilotKit with the full-depth and auto-confirm flags. That makes a fresh clone of the repository on every run, so the result is the latest version rather than a cached copy. The command works across several AI coding tools, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI. It detects which of those tools are installed and updates the skills for each. After the command completes, the user needs to start a new session in the tool to pick up the changes. The skill is only for refreshing the CopilotKit skills, and it says it should not be used for other requests. It suits developers who have installed CopilotKit skills and want to make sure they are current.…
