## What it does

The `angular-directives` skill in the `analogjs/angular-skills` repo is marked deprecated. Its guidance was pulled rather than left in place to rot, so the old contents survive only in the repository's git history.

It used to cover writing custom directives for Angular v20+: attribute directives that change how an element looks or behaves, structural ones for portals and overlays, and host directives for composition. For control flow it pointed at the native `@if`, `@for` and `@switch` blocks instead of hand-rolled structural directives.

The author sends you to the official Angular skills: `npx skills add https://github.com/angular/skills`. Already have this one installed? `npx skills remove analogjs/angular-skills` takes it out. Installing it now buys you nothing, since nobody maintains it.

## Requirements
- Works with: GitHub

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-directives -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/angular-directives/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-directives -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-directives -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install analogjs/angular-skills angular-directives
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-directives -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/analogjs/angular-skills --path skills/angular-directives
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add analogjs/angular-skills --skill angular-directives -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/analogjs/angular-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/angular-directives/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- find a maintained replacement for a stale directives skill
- drop an unmaintained skill from the project
- figure out which directives Angular v20+ still needs
- switch to the official Angular skills

## Example prompts
- Install the official Angular skills instead of the deprecated angular-directives
- Remove the analogjs/angular-skills skill from this project
- What should I use instead of angular-directives for directives?

name: angular-directives
description: DEPRECATED - this skill is unmaintained. Use the official Angular skills at https://github.com/angular/skills instead. Create custom directives in Angular v20+ for DOM manipulation and behavior extension. Use for attribute directives that modify element behavior/appearance, structural directives for portals/overlays, and host directives for composition. Triggers on creating reusable DOM behaviors, extending element functionality, or composing behaviors across components. Note - use native @if/@for/@switch for control flow, not custom structural directives.
