import
Copy an external skill into a registry with recorded provenance.
skillhub import copies an external skill into a registry, recording its
provenance (the source URL and the upstream content hash). Optionally re-check
upstream drift right after importing with --check-drift.
That recorded provenance surfaces on the skill's Provenance tab — the repository, ref, subpath, and upstream commit hash the copy came from:
Import copies the skill into a registry you own so it can be scanned, versioned, and installed like any first-party skill — while keeping a verifiable link back to where it came from. See refs & scopes for the source-ref grammar.
Synopsis
skillhub import <source> [--to <@owner/registry>] [--skill <name>] [--check-drift]Flags
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--to <@owner/registry> | Target registry to copy the skill into (@owner/registry) |
--skill <name> | Import only this discovered skill (repeatable); disambiguates a multi-skill source |
--check-drift | After importing, re-resolve the source and report whether upstream changed |
