🧑💻 Install via Homebrew (macOS developers)
brew tap luochang212/tap
brew install --cask skill-zooDownload the .exe installer from Releases and run it. The installer sets up shortcuts automatically and supports automatic updates.
If SmartScreen shows a warning, click "More info" → "Run anyway".

npm i -g skill-zoo
skill-zoo --help
skill-zoo list # List installed skills
skill-zoo doctor --fix # Diagnose and fix common issues
skill-zoo wui # Start the local Web UISee: Skill Zoo CLI
