Agent skill
koban skill installs the embedded Agent Skills standard SKILL.md that teaches AI coding agents how to drive koban — auth, stable JSON output, filters, and the --dry-run/--yes safety gates.
Install it once and your agent can track work in Invoice Ninja automatically — logging billable tasks and time, drafting and sending invoices, recording expenses, and reporting on outstanding balances as it works.
Common usage
koban skill install # user-wide for detected agents
koban skill install --project # current project: .claude + .agents
koban skill install claude codex # install for specific agents
koban skill install --all # install every known path
koban skill install copilot --dir ~/repo # project install into another repo
koban skill list # paths and install status
koban skill show # print the embedded SKILL.md
koban skill uninstall --project # remove project-level installed copiesWith no agent names, a user-wide install targets agents detected on this machine (their config directory exists), falling back to ~/.agents/skills when none are found. A project install (--project or --dir) defaults to the .claude/skills and .agents/skills pair, which covers the supported project-level readers.
Installs overwrite only <skills dir>/koban/SKILL.md and never touch sibling files. uninstall removes only that file and removes the koban/ directory only when it is empty.
Supported agents
| Agent name | User-wide skill directory | Project skill directory |
|---|---|---|
claude | ~/.claude/skills/ | .claude/skills/ |
codex | ~/.codex/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
pi | ~/.pi/agent/skills/ | .pi/skills/ |
openclaw | ~/.openclaw/skills/ | skills/ |
copilot | ~/.copilot/skills/ | .github/skills/ |
cursor | ~/.cursor/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
gemini | ~/.gemini/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
amp | ~/.config/amp/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
goose | ~/.config/goose/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
agents | ~/.agents/skills/ | .agents/skills/ |
Agents that share a directory are deduplicated, so for example:
koban skill install codex cursor gemini --projectwrites one .agents/skills/koban/SKILL.md file.
Repository copy
A canonical copy is checked into the koban repo at skills/koban/SKILL.md for repository-based skill installers. CI verifies it stays byte-identical to the embedded skill printed by:
