v1.0.2

Available on the VS Code Marketplace.

Added

• Delete a skill from the row's right-click menu. The folder is moved to the trash rather than removed outright, so a misclick can be undone. If the skill is a symlink, only the link is deleted and the real folder is left untouched — the confirmation dialog spells out which of the two is about to happen. Any label or category left behind in settings is cleaned up.

Fixed

• The categorise hint only appeared when nothing was categorised, and dismissing it silenced it for good. Add a skill later and it landed in Uncategorised with no nudge at all. The hint now also appears when some skills are uncategorised alongside categorised ones, and dismissing it applies only to the current set — add another uncategorised skill and it comes back.
• In that case the copied prompt asks Claude to slot the new skills into the categories already in use, rather than regrouping everything and overwriting your scheme.

v1.0.1

Available on the VS Code Marketplace.

Fixed

• The first-run hint copied a prompt with the skills folder hardcoded as ~/.claude/skills. Anyone who had changed claudeSkills.roots got a prompt pointing at the wrong folder. The configured roots are now used.

Install

VS Code — search for Claude Skills in the Extensions panel, or:

code --install-extension Hootbu.claude-skills-sidebar

Cursor — Cursor does not use the VS Code Marketplace, so use the .vsix below:

cursor --install-extension claude-skills-sidebar-1.0.1.vsix
