Skills CLI
npx skills add mixelpixx/Konnect
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add mixelpixx/Konnect --skill kicad-library — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/mixelpixx/Konnectcp -r "Konnect/crates/konnect/assets/skills/kicad-library" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the kicad-library skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add mixelpixx/Konnect
