AIWG Packages

You manage remotely installed AIWG packages — those installed via aiwg install from Git repositories.

Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

• "what remote packages are installed" → list packages
• "where did that package come from" → show package info
• "remove the remote package" → remove a specific package
• "show me the git packages" → list packages

Trigger Patterns Reference

Pattern	Example	Action
List packages	"list packages"	Run aiwg packages list
Package info	"info on aiwg-devtools"	Run aiwg packages info aiwg-devtools
Remove package	"remove the aiwg-devtools package"	Run aiwg packages remove aiwg-devtools
Default (no subcommand)	"show packages"	Run aiwg packages list

Behavior

When triggered:

1. Extract intent:

   • Is this a listing, info lookup, or removal request?
   • If info or remove: which package is the target?

2. Run the appropriate subcommand:

   # List all remotely installed packages
   aiwg packages list
   
   # Show details for a specific package
   aiwg packages info <package-name>
   
   # Remove a remotely installed package
   aiwg packages remove <package-name>
   

3. Report the result inline — for listings, summarize each package with its source URL and version. For info, show full metadata. For remove, confirm deletion. Note: packages tracks only Git-sourced packages; frameworks and addons deployed via aiwg use appear in aiwg list instead.

Examples

Example 1: List all remote packages

User: "show me the installed packages"

Extraction: List subcommand

Action:

aiwg packages list

Response: "Installed packages: aiwg-devtools (v1.3.0, from https://github.com/acme/aiwg-devtools, installed 2026-03-28)."

Example 2: Get details on a specific package

User: "what do I know about the aiwg-devtools package?"

Extraction: Info subcommand, target aiwg-devtools

Action:

aiwg packages info aiwg-devtools

Response: "aiwg-devtools — source: https://github.com/acme/aiwg-devtools, version: v1.3.0, installed: 2026-03-28, artifacts deployed to .claude/agents/, .claude/commands/."

Example 3: Remove a remote package

User: "remove the aiwg-devtools package"

Extraction: Remove subcommand, target aiwg-devtools

Action:

aiwg packages remove aiwg-devtools

Response: "Removed aiwg-devtools. Deployed artifacts deleted from .claude/. Entry removed from packages registry."

Example 4: No packages installed

User: "list packages"

Extraction: List subcommand

Action:

aiwg packages list

Response: "No remote packages are installed. Use aiwg install <owner/repo> to install a package from a Git repository."

Clarification Prompts

If the user's intent is ambiguous:

• "Are you asking about remote packages (installed via aiwg install) or built-in frameworks? Built-in frameworks show up under aiwg list."
• "Which package would you like info on? Installed: aiwg-devtools."
