Install
The recommended path is skills.sh — a single-line install that works across most agents:
# install everything
npx skills add isaaccorley/geospatial-skills
# or install one skill at a time
npx skills add isaaccorley/geospatial-skills/ # e.g. gdal, geozarr, pmtiles-pipeline
Other paths:
# Claude Code plugin
/plugin install @geospatial-skills
# Or copy a skill directly into your shared skills folder
cp -R skills/ ~/.agent/skills/

Provenance and licenses
Skills come from three sources; imported skills carry their upstream license file in their own directory and keep upstream content verbatim:
- authored here (Apache-2.0):
gdal,geoparquet-validation,geozarr,tessera,geospatial-viewers,geospatial-frontend,parallel-geospatial,pmtiles-pipeline,zarr-multiscales,planet-bulk-download - imported from portolan-sdi/portolan-skills
(Apache-2.0, Portolan SDI):
portolan-cli,portolan-bootstrap,reading-portolan,portolan-thumbnails,register-catalog,sourcecoop - imported from opengeos/geoai-skills
(MIT, Qiusheng Wu):
search-stac,overture-data,detect-objects— cross-references were repointed from the upstream plugin namespace to this catalog’s skills, and error paths now give inlinepip installinstructions
