Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add XBlueSky/cortexes
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add XBlueSky/cortexes --skill cortex-broadcast — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/XBlueSky/cortexescp -r "cortexes/skills/cortex-broadcast" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the cortex-broadcast skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add XBlueSky/cortexes
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
cortex-broadcast
llm-wiki style broadcast ingest — conversational update of related existing pages when a Raw has been distilled. Use when the user says "broadcast", "跑 broadcast", "compound this into the vault", "merge pending-merge", "process broadcast queue", or when cortex-distill invokes broadcast inline after Step 8 commit (automatic dispatch for every new / pending-merge Raw).

cortex-distill
Distill raw session records into refined Notes and Projects. Use when the user says "提煉", "整理 raw", "distill", or "distill raw records".
skills/cortex-distill/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
cortex-evolve
Save knowledge to the cortex vault. Use when the user says "存到 cortex", "記一下", "save to cortex", "記到筆記", "cortex evolve", or when the session-suggest hook recommends saving content. Handles Notes and Projects.

cortex-query
Search and retrieve content from the cortexes vault — the user's external memory. Use when the user explicitly asks to search or recall the vault ("查 cortex", "之前有記過", "cortex 裡有沒有", "check my notes", "what did I write about", `/cortexes:query`), or when the using-cortex skill routes a request here after one of its four prior-context signals. Do not use for general questions, for fresh work with…

cortex-takeoff
Create or resume a session takeoff baton — a curated, ephemeral, git-ignored hand-off note that lets the next Claude session continue a long-running task. A repo can hold several batons at once, one per work line (topic). Use when the user says "交接", "takeoff", "交棒", "context 快滿了交接給下個 session", "hand off to next session", "/cortexes:takeoff", "takeoff resume", or "takeoff done". The baton is scaf…

using-cortex
Use when the user asks to check the cortex vault, refers to earlier work ("last time", "that project", "we discussed", "之前那個", "上次的"), asks to resume something from a previous session, or names a topic the SessionStart hook listed for this vault. Routes the request to the cortex-query skill so the answer is grounded in the user's own notes instead of re-derived. Do not use for general questions,…

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
