## What it does

The `ql-artifact` skill comes from the `maxritter/qualitylayer` repository. It provides instructions for managing project artifacts in Claude Code and other supported coding agents. The setup saves its prompt instructions into a `SKILL.md` file.

The code carries a proprietary `LicenseRef-Proprietary` license, limiting modification and redistribution. Installation relies on the `skills` CLI.

This skill works across Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and GitHub Copilot. You can keep identical artifact workflows across multiple development environments.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add maxritter/qualitylayer --skill ql-artifact -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add maxritter/qualitylayer --skill ql-artifact -a codex
```

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

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add maxritter/qualitylayer --skill ql-artifact -a cursor
```

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

### GitHub Copilot
