The article explains how fragmented AI‑coding Skills across tools like Cursor, Claude, and Codex cause version drift and storage waste, and introduces the open‑source Skills Hub, which centralizes Skills in a single repository and synchronizes them to all supported editors via symlinks.
This guide explains the differences between symbolic (soft) links and hard links in Linux, covering their definitions, characteristics, creation commands, inode behavior, cross‑filesystem capabilities, directory restrictions, and real‑world use cases to help you choose the appropriate link type for your needs.
