About install

A skill that builds and installs the FloatingClock macOS app from its plugin source into /Applications, then launches it. It is intended for users setting up the app and includes checks for build and path failures.

Key features

  1. 01Resolve the plugin root
  2. 02Build and bundle the app
  3. 03Copy app into /Applications
  4. 04Launch the installed app
  5. 05Check for reproducible setup issues

Use cases

  1. 01Install FloatingClock from the plugin source
  2. 02Make FloatingClock available in Spotlight and Launchpad

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

$npx skills add https://github.com/terrylica/cc-skills --skill install

After installing, type/installin Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

Details

From the project README

Prerequisite — cc-plugin-root. This skill resolves its scripts with cc-plugin-root <plugin> (the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT placeholder is not a shell variable and expands to empty). If the command is missing, run /itp:setup (its first step installs it), or link it directly:

mkdir -p ~/.local/bin && ln -sfn \
  ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/scripts/cc-plugin-root ~/.local/bin/cc-plugin-root

/floating-clock:install

Install the FloatingClock macOS app from this plugin's source to /Applications/ so it's available from Spotlight, Launchpad, and Finder.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If the build, copy, or launch step breaks (signing change, path drift, macOS gatekeeper update) — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Steps

  1. Resolve plugin root:

    PLUGIN_ROOT="$(cc-plugin-root floating-clock)"
    if [ ! -f "$PLUGIN_ROOT/Makefile" ]; then
      echo "ERROR: plugin root not found at $PLUGIN_ROOT" >&2
      exit 1
    fi
    
  2. Build, bundle, sign:

    cd "$PLUGIN_ROOT" && make all
    
  3. Copy to /Applications:

    cp -R "$PLUGIN_ROOT/build/FloatingClock.app" /Applications/
    
  4. Launch:

    open /Applications/FloatingClock.app
    
  5. Confirm:

    Installed to /Applications/FloatingClock.app and launched. The app is now discoverable via Spotlight (⌘Space → FloatingClock) and Launchpad. Right-click the clock for options.

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

  1. Did make all produce the expected build/FloatingClock.app? — If not, fix the Makefile or the build prerequisite.
  2. Did the copy/launch step succeed silently? — If macOS prompted (gatekeeper, permission), document the bypass.
  3. Did paths drift? — Plugin root, Makefile target, or app bundle name change → update the script.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
