Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
4 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by manaflow-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cmux Dev Workflow AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/tree/main/skills/cmux-dev-workflow
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux.git /tmp/cmux
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/cmux/skills/cmux-dev-workflow .claude/skills/cmux-dev-workflow

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cmux Dev Workflow in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cmux Dev Workflow on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cmux Dev Workflow is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Scope and routing

Run repository commands only from a trusted checkout; even verify-local.py --help and --list load repository code.

Choose verification for the change before preparing a native build. Fast feedback starts with python3 scripts/verify-local.py; portable-tooling and documentation changes use their scoped checks without an unrelated app build.

For native app or build-input changes, build with a tag as below. Setup (./scripts/setup.sh) initializes submodules, builds GhosttyKit and installs the project-normalization hook; it is not a prerequisite for portable static checks.

Tagged local development

When local native execution is authorized:

sh
./scripts/reload.sh --tag <short-tag>
CMUX_TAG=<short-tag> scripts/cmux-debug-cli.sh list-workspaces

Reload builds without launching; add --launch when live verification is needed. Never use bare xcodebuild or open an untagged cmux DEV.app: tags isolate bundle IDs, sockets and build output from other sessions. Do not use /tmp/cmux-cli, which follows the most recently reloaded app. See tagged builds. Never quit, kill, relaunch or xctrace --launch the user's running cmux (com.cmuxterm.app); it holds their live agent sessions.

An app build does not establish test-target compilation or execution. Follow the test guide for those claims.

Toolchain and project files

.xcode-version owns the Xcode major; cmux.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj currently uses objectVersion 60. The Intel/macOS 14 fallback uses Xcode 16.2/Swift 6.0; keep app-linked code compatible as specified in Swift 6.0 compatibility.

The installed pre-commit hook normalizes staged project files and registers new Python tests in tests/test-execution.toml. Preserve it and run python3 scripts/verify-local.py --only project after project edits. Toolchain pin changes are deliberate team decisions; see project normalization.

Sidebar extension tags

Keep the extension-point ID, bundle-ID suffix and display-name suffix distinct for each tag. Build extensions through scripts/reload-extension.sh --tag <tag> with the matching host; do not repair a mismatched tag by re-signing. The exact settings, helper arguments and verification checklist live in sidebar extension tagging.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Cmux Dev Workflow AI skill do?

Contributor workflow for native cmux setup, tagged dev builds, Xcode project normalization and sidebar extensions. Use for native build inputs, setup or tagged app verification.

Why use Cmux Dev Workflow on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cmux Dev Workflow is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cmux Dev Workflow in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux/tree/main/skills/cmux-dev-workflow. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cmux Dev Workflow?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cmux Dev Workflow?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cmux Dev Workflow with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cmux Dev Workflow AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by manaflow-ai. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
