Is the Asdf skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from jjmartres/ai-coding-agents. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Asdf SkillProof Score?

8.4/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 7/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install Asdf?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Asdf with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 8.4/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 3014981

A migrate-from-nvm mini-task showed the concrete value: the skill body correctly reaches for the modern `asdf set` command and the exact `.asdfrc` `legacy_version_file` key plus `asdf reshim` for broken shims, where an unguided answer is more likely to reach for the deprecated `asdf local`/`asdf global` syntax still common in older docs.
