How taps work

Section titled “How taps work”

A tap is a GitHub repository that contains a collection of SKILL.md files organized by skill name. When you add a tap, skillshub clones the repository index locally and makes its skills available for search and installation. Taps are automatically refreshed when you run skillshub update.
