How to Get the Latest Version of Archify: Complete Installation Guide

Run npx skills add tt-a1i/archify -g to install the latest stable version (v2.14.0) globally for Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, and other supported agents.

Archify is distributed as a skill archive through the tt-a1i/archify GitHub repository rather than as a traditional npm package. To get the latest version of archify, you use the skill installer command that resolves the most recent release tag and deploys the CLI, renderer, and JSON schema to your agent's runtime environment.

Installation Methods

Use the Skill Installer (Recommended)

The npx skills add command is the standard method for obtaining the latest version of archify. According to the repository's release management, this command contacts GitHub, resolves the most recent tag (currently v2.14.0 as shown in README.md), and installs the skill globally.

npx skills add tt-a1i/archify -g

This approach works across supported agents—including Cursor, Codex, Claude Code, and OpenCode—without requiring global Node installation or manual path configuration.

Pin a Specific Version

If you need to install an older release rather than automatically fetching the latest, append the version tag explicitly.

npx skills add tt-a1i/archify@v2.13.0 -g

Manual Download from GitHub Releases

For Raven agents or offline environments, download the archify.zip asset directly from the repository.

1. Visit https://github.com/tt-a1i/archify/releases
2. Download archify.zip for the desired version
3. Extract the contents to ~/.raven/workspace/skills/archify

Verify Your Installation

After installation, confirm you are running the latest version by querying the skill registry.

npx skills list | grep archify

Expected output:

archify@v2.14.0

How Version Management Works

Archify tracks releases across several key files in the repository. The README.md displays the stable version badge, while CHANGELOG.md documents the full release history with the most recent entry being v2.14.0 (2026-08-11). The actual version metadata resides in archify/package.json and archify/SKILL.md, which define the skill contract and version fields used by agent runtimes when the ZIP archive is built.

Summary

• Install the latest version using npx skills add tt-a1i/archify -g to fetch the archify.zip release asset
• Current stable release is v2.14.0 as documented in README.md and CHANGELOG.md
• Verification is done via npx skills list | grep archify
• Offline installations require manually extracting archify.zip from GitHub Releases into the appropriate skill directory
• Version pinning allows installation of specific releases using @version syntax

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Archify available on npm?

No. According to the tt-a1i/archify source code, Archify is not published as a traditional npm package. Instead, it is distributed as a skill archive containing the CLI, renderer, and JSON schema. The npx skills add command fetches these files directly from the GitHub repository's releases page and places them where the agent runtime expects them.

How do I update to the latest version of archify?

Run npx skills add tt-a1i/archify -g periodically. If your local copy already matches the latest release available in the repository, the command exits as a no-op without making changes. You can verify your current version anytime by running npx skills list | grep archify.

Where can I see what changed in the latest release?

Check the CHANGELOG.md file in the repository root. This file tracks every release chronologically, with the most recent entry being v2.14.0 (2026-08-11). Each entry documents changes, fixes, and additions since the previous version, allowing you to review exactly what functionality or fixes you are receiving when you update.

Can I use Archify with the Raven agent?

Yes. For Raven, the skill installer method is not available, so you must download the archify.zip asset manually from the GitHub Releases page. Extract the archive into ~/.raven/workspace/skills/archify (or your configured Raven skill directory) to complete the installation.
