Running npx skills add getsesame/skills auto-detects every agent platform installed on your machine and drops you into an interactive prompt to choose which one to configure — no manual path hunting or config editing required.

​
Basic Installation

1

Run the installer

Execute the following command in your terminal:
The installer scans your system for supported agent platforms and presents a selection menu.
2

Select your agent

Choose your agent from the detected list. If you have multiple agents installed, you can run the command again to add the skill to additional agents, or use the --all flag to target every detected agent at once.
3

Skill is written to the agent's config directory

The installer writes the skill to the correct configuration directory for your chosen agent automatically — no manual file placement needed.
4

Start your agent

Launch your agent as usual. It now routes authenticated API calls through sesame request and never exposes credentials in its context.

​
Install Options

PromptScript and global installs: PromptScript only supports project-level skill installation, so --global skips it silently. All other detected agents install successfully and the command exits 0 — nothing is broken. For a fully clean install across every agent including PromptScript, run the installer from inside a project directory instead of a global context.

​
What the Skill Does After Installation

Once the sesame skill is active, your agent automatically:
  1. Routes requests through sesame request instead of calling curl, fetch, or any raw HTTP client directly
  2. Checks sesame hostnames to verify which hostnames are configured before making a call
  3. Handles the first-time approval flow — walks through any one-time consent prompts required by the broker
  4. Never constructs auth headers — credential injection is left entirely to the broker, keeping secrets out of the agent’s context window
If you already ran the Sesame CLI setup and Node.js was available on your machine, the skills installer may have run automatically — check whether your agent is already configured before running npx skills add again.
