Description

The command line installation of skills for claude code given in README.md fails with the following message:

npx skills add --agent claude-code Altinity/altinity-skills/altinity-expert-clickhouse/

 ERROR  Missing required argument: source

To install all skills, I'm using the following commands instead. It installs all skills in the group.

npx skills add Altinity/altinity-skills/altinity-expert-clickhouse/ \
 --agent claude-code --all
npx skills add Altinity/altinity-skills/altinity-profiler-clickhouse/ \
 --agent claude-code --all
