Install as a Skill
For more reliable and deeper engagement with the framework, install retflo as a skill in your coding agent. This gives the model direct access to the full framework. No web browsing, no sandbox limits, no depth restrictions.
Install
npx skills add retflo/retflo
The skills CLI auto-detects which coding agents you have installed and lets you choose where to install. One command, any agent.
Supported agents
The skills ecosystem supports 40+ coding agents, including:
Amp, Augment, Claude Code, Codex, Continue, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Goose, Kilo Code, Kiro, OpenCode, OpenHands, Roo Code, Trae, Windsurf, Zencoder, and many more.
The full list is maintained by the skills CLI. If your agent isn’t listed, it may still work. The CLI is regularly updated.
Flags
| Flag | Purpose |
|---|---|
-g, --global | Install globally (available in all projects) |
-a, --agent <name> | Target a specific agent (repeatable) |
--all | Install to every detected agent |
-y, --yes | Skip interactive prompts |
Examples:
# Install globally
npx skills add retflo/retflo -g
# Install to specific agents
npx skills add retflo/retflo -a cursor -a windsurf
# Install to all detected agents, no prompts
npx skills add retflo/retflo --all -y
Other install methods
The skills CLI also accepts full URLs, SSH paths, and local directories:
# Full GitHub URL
npx skills add https://github.com/retflo/retflo
# Local clone
npx skills add ./path/to/retflo
What happens after install
Once installed, the skill is available in your agent’s context. The agent loads the framework’s routing table and can navigate the full argument graph directly. No HTTP requests, no web browsing, no depth limits.
The quality of engagement is significantly better than the web-based approach because:
- The model has the complete framework in context from the start
- It can read individual node files directly, not through a web interface
- There are no corporate sandbox restrictions on link depth
- No alignment filters interfere with the content
