In March, I published the @stefafafan/skm npm package.
However, shortly after its release, a similar tool from Microsoft called apm gained attention, and GitHub also introduced the gh skill subcommand. This made me feel that using these alternatives would be better, so I decided to deprecate the skm package.
- APM - Agent Package Manager | Agent Package Manager
- Manage agent skills with GitHub CLI - GitHub Changelog
Deprecation Steps
First, I updated the README in the GitHub repository to indicate the deprecation and archived it.
Also, I deprecated the npm package using the deprecate subcommand.
Now, people who install the package will see the following message:
Shell
$ pnpm i @stefafafan/skm
WARN deprecated @stefafafan/skm@0.3.2: Consider using https://microsoft.github.io/apm/ or https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_skill
