HOW-TO
How to add and sync a skill
Add skills to your private registry, keep drafts and published versions apart, share them with your team and move them across tools so copies do not drift apart.

STEPS
How to add and sync a skill
- Add
Create a skill in the private registry, or import one.
- Version
Work on a draft and publish when it is ready. History is never rewritten.
- Share
Use folders, tags and private, group or organisation sharing.
- Sync and move
Translate skills for each platform, and pull them through Joyst’s hosted skills MCP where available.
- Package
Include published skills in agent packages.
WHY A REGISTRY
One source of truth
- Ownership
Each skill has an owner. The team uses the approved version.
- Across tools
Stop keeping separate copies for Claude, Cursor and agents.
- Controlled publishing
The same permissions decide who can publish.
- Not a marketplace
Only your organisation’s skills.
