Install Preview & Confirmation

Kenji shows you what it found before writing any files. There are two types of confirmation prompts.

Multi-skill repo preview

When you run kenji install user/repo and Kenji discovers more than one skill in the repository, it shows a preview of all discovered skills and asks you to confirm before installing anything:

text
Discovered 3 skills in anthropics/skills:

  anthropics-skills/mcp-builder
  anthropics-skills/design-algorithmic-art
  anthropics-skills/prompt-engineering

Install all 3 skills? (Y/n)

Press Enter or type y to install all. Type n to cancel without writing any files.

Note

If only one skill is discovered in the repository, it installs immediately without a prompt.

Community registry prompt

For skills from community registries, Kenji pauses and asks for confirmation before downloading anything:

text
This skill is from a community registry and has not been reviewed by the Kenji team.
  Name:   someuser/some-skill
  Source: github.com/someuser/kenji-registry
  Repo:   someuser/some-skill-repo

We recommend viewing the source repo before installing: https://github.com/someuser/some-skill-repo

Proceed with installation? (y/N)

Note

This prompt does not appear for official Kenji registry skills. Official skills are trusted by default.

Skip confirmation

Pass --force to skip the prompt and overwrite any existing files:

shell
$ kenji install someuser/some-skill --force

This is useful in CI environments or when re-installing a known skill.
