Manage agent skill dependencies with dotagents. Use when asked to "add a skill", "install skills", "remove a skill", "update skills", "dotagents init", "agents.toml", "agents.lock", "sync skills", "list skills", "set up dotagents", "configure trust", "add MCP server", "add hook", "wildcard skills", "user scope", or any dotagents-related task.
Manage agent skill dependencies declared in agents.toml. dotagents resolves, installs, and symlinks skills so multiple agent tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, OpenCode) discover them from .agents/skills/.
If dotagents is not available as a direct command, use npx @sentry/dotagents instead. For example: npx @sentry/dotagents sync. All commands and flags work the same way.

.agents/skills/ is the canonical home for all installed skillsagents.toml declares dependencies; agents.lock pins exact commits and integrity hashes.claude/skills/, .cursor/skills/ point to .agents/skills/name = "*" installs all skills from a source, with optional exclude list[trust] section restricts which sources are allowed[[hooks]] declarations write tool-event hooks to each agent's configgitignore = true, managed skills are gitignored; custom in-place skills are tracked--user flag manages skills in ~/.agents/ shared across all projects
