SynapSync CLI

The unified CLI for managing AI cognitives across multiple providers.

SynapSync lets you install, organize, and sync AI capabilities (skills, agents, prompts, workflows, and tools) to any AI provider—Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini, or Copilot—from a single source of truth.

Why SynapSync?​

ProblemSolution
Scattered AI configurations across projectsCentral .synapsync/ storage with symlink sync
Manually copying prompts between toolsOne sync command updates all providers
No standard way to share AI capabilitiesPublic registry + GitHub installation
Different formats per providerUnified cognitive format, automatic adaptation

Quick Start​

# Install globally
npm install -g @synapsync/cli

# Initialize in your project
synapsync init

# Add a cognitive from the registry
synapsync add code-reviewer

# Done! The cognitive is now available in your AI tools

Key Features​

  • Multi-provider sync — Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini, Copilot
  • 5 cognitive types — Skills, Agents, Prompts, Workflows, Tools
  • Multiple sources — Registry, GitHub, local files
  • Symlink-based — Single source of truth, no duplication
  • Interactive REPL — Run synapsync for interactive mode

  1. Install — Download cognitives to .synapsync/
  2. Sync — Create symlinks to provider directories
  3. Use — Cognitives are available in your AI tools
