PRPM: Open Source Cross-format distribution and conversion for Agent Skills #9
Description
This is a great initiative!
We've been building https://prpm.dev (Prompt Package Manager), a registry and CLI for
distributing AI coding prompts across tools. Our format converter already supports
bidirectional conversion between 18+ formats.
As I tweeted to Dax we would love to get involved and help:
- Distribution layer — PRPM's registry could serve as a community marketplace for Agent Skills, with search, quality scoring, and prpm install . We have skills, agent, rules, instructions and more and support for most of the popular AI tools.
- Format conversion — Skills authored in PRPM can convert to/from other formats, expanding
reach. A skill written for Claude Code can become a Cursor rule, Windsurf rule, or Copilot
instruction. - Validation tooling — We have schema validation for skill frontmatter that could complement
skills-ref.
Questions
- Would you be open to listing PRPM as a distribution option in the docs?
- Any interest in collaborating on a shared validation schema?
- Should we submit a PR adding PRPM as a SkillProvider in the reference SDK?
Happy to discuss or contribute directly. The repo is at https://github.com/pr-pm/prpm and on twitter https://twitter.com/prpmdev
