cli-plugins-skills — Claude Code skill: Omni Skills and memory via CLI
Hands the agent the omniroute command set for skills, plugins and persistent memory. Useful when you want to install and test skills without leaving the session.
npx skills add cheaper-inference/OmniRoute --skill cli-plugins-skills -a claude-codeWhat cli-plugins-skills does
This skill documents the omniroute CLI, which covers three areas: Omni Skills, plugins and persistent memory. Skills can be searched, inspected, installed at a chosen version, enabled, disabled, deleted and executed with JSON input or an input file plus a timeout. Separate subcommands list categories, featured entries and past executions.
Plugins follow the same pattern — list, install, remove, info, search, update, and plugin scaffold <name> to generate a starting point. Memory has its own group: search with a type filter and a limit, add from text or a file with metadata, list, fetch by id, delete, and clear by age. Search and add take an --api-key flag, so the key has to be passed explicitly.
The CLI itself installs globally with npm install -g omniroute, or you can run it through npx omniroute. Check the version with omniroute --version. Destructive commands ask for confirmation, so scripts need --yes — otherwise the command sits waiting on the prompt.
What it helps with
- install a skill from the marketplace and enable it in one go
- find skills by category or tag
- generate a scaffold for a new plugin
- add a memory entry from a file
- wipe old memory records with a single command
Example prompts for the agent
- List the installed skills and show which ones are enabled
- Search skills tagged
pdfand show the first ten - Add the contents of
