  • 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.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by rodydavis on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Update Examples Dependencies AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

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.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/rodydavis/signals.dart/tree/main/.agents/skills/update-examples-dependencies
  4. 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/rodydavis/signals.dart.git /tmp/signals.dart
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/signals.dart/.agents/skills/update-examples-dependencies .claude/skills/update-examples-dependencies
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Update Examples Dependencies 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 Update Examples Dependencies 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 Update Examples Dependencies 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.

Update Examples Dependencies & Code Fixes

This skill provides a systematic and automated workflow to update dependencies in all Dart/Flutter examples located in the ./examples directory and fix any code compilation, deprecation, or linter warnings that arise.

Objective

Ensure all ./examples packages are upgraded to target the latest core package versions (e.g. signals) of the repository, run a full pub upgrade on third-party dependencies to prevent stale locks, and repair any broken code or deprecation warnings under analysis.

Workflow

1. Run the Automated Update Script

Locate the helper script at scripts/update_dependencies.dart or within this skill's scripts directory:

bash
dart run .agents/skills/update-examples-dependencies/scripts/update_dependencies.dart

This script will:

  • Read packages/signals/pubspec.yaml to detect the current package version of signals.
  • Recursively find all pubspec.yaml files inside ./examples/.
  • Replace the signals dependency version constraint with the exact latest version constraint (e.g., ^6.3.1).
  • Execute flutter pub upgrade or dart pub upgrade on each example package.

2. Bootstrap the Workspace

After upgrading individual package pubspecs, link the workspace packages and ensure they resolve successfully by running:

bash
melos bootstrap

3. Analyze and Fix Code Issues

With all packages upgraded, run static analysis to check for breaking changes or new warnings:

bash
melos run analyze

For any deprecations (such as v6 to v7 API transitions or external package changes):

  • Inspect the file and reference standard migration rules (e.g., migration-6-to-7 if migrating to v7).
  • Refactor the code in place to use modern, non-deprecated APIs.
  • Fix all compiler errors and static analysis warnings until melos run analyze succeeds cleanly.

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 Update Examples Dependencies AI skill do?

Update all the `./examples` dependencies to the latest repository/third-party versions and fix any compiler or analysis issues.

Why use Update Examples Dependencies on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Update Examples Dependencies 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 Update Examples Dependencies in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/rodydavis/signals.dart/tree/main/.agents/skills/update-examples-dependencies. 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 Update Examples Dependencies?

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 Update Examples Dependencies?

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

Is the Update Examples Dependencies AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by rodydavis under the Apache-2.0 license. 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.
