Follow these steps to refresh the local environment of other agents, ensuring that their agent skills and plugins are fully up-to-date.
Other agents rely on npx skills. Updates should prioritize the global level; if skills are installed at the project level, omit the --global flag.
Replace <AGENT_NAME> with the actual agent name, which can be found in the skills repository README.
-
List Available Skills: Identify all Firebase skills available in the repository:
npx -y skills add firebase/agent-skills --list
-
Check Currently Installed Skills: Determine which skills are already installed and linked for the agent at both project and global levels:
# Check project-level skills npx -y skills list --agent <AGENT_NAME> # Check global-level skills npx -y skills list --agent <AGENT_NAME> --global
Note: If a skill shows
Agents: not linkedin the output, it is installed but not currently available to the agent. -
Add Missing or Unlinked Skills: Compare the results from Step 1 and Step 2. For each missing or unlinked skill, follow the appropriate conditional instruction below:
-
IF any Firebase skills were found at the PROJECT level in Step 2: Add the missing skill to the project level:
npx -y skills add firebase/agent-skills --agent <AGENT_NAME> --skill "<SKILL_NAME>" --yes
-
IF any Firebase skills were found at the GLOBAL level in Step 2: Add the missing skill to the global level:
npx -y skills add firebase/agent-skills --agent <AGENT_NAME> --skill "<SKILL_NAME>" --global --yes
-
IF NO Firebase skills were found in Step 2: Add each missing skill to the global level:
npx -y skills add firebase/agent-skills --agent <AGENT_NAME> --skill "<SKILL_NAME>" --global --yes
-
-
Update Existing Skills: Update all currently installed skills to their latest versions:
# Update project-level skills npx -y skills update --agent <AGENT_NAME> --yes # Update global-level skills npx -y skills update --agent <AGENT_NAME> --global --yes
