xdrop

Name: xdrop
Author: xixu-me

Use this skill when the user wants to send or fetch files through an Xdrop server from the terminal, asks to automate encrypted Xdrop share-link workflows,…

INSTALLATION

npx skills add https://github.com/xixu-me/skills --skill xdrop

Run in your project or agent environment. Adjust flags if your CLI version differs.

SKILL.md

Use the bundled scripts inside this skill directory.

Available scripts

scripts/upload.mjs — Upload local files or directories to an Xdrop server and print the share link

scripts/download.mjs — Download an Xdrop share link, decrypt it locally, and save the files

Environment requirements:

Local filesystem access

Network access to the target Xdrop server

Upload

bun scripts/upload.mjs --server <xdrop-site-url> <file-or-directory> [...]

Prefer these flags when relevant:

--quiet: suppress progress output and keep stdout clean

--json: return transferId, shareUrl, and expiresAt

--expires-in <seconds>: choose a supported expiry

--api-url <url>: override the default <server>/api/v1

--name <value>: set the transfer display name

--concurrency <n>: limit parallel uploads per file

Useful examples:

bun scripts/upload.mjs --server http://localhost:8080 ./dist/report.pdf

bun scripts/upload.mjs --server http://localhost:8080 --quiet ./archive.zip

bun scripts/upload.mjs --server http://localhost:8080 --expires-in 600 --json ./notes.txt

If the user wants verification, upload a small temporary file and then confirm the public transfer API or browser can open the returned link.

Download

Require the full share link, including #k=.... Without the fragment key, the transfer cannot be decrypted.

bun scripts/download.mjs "<share-url>"

Prefer these flags when relevant:

--output <dir>: choose the destination directory

--quiet: suppress progress output and keep stdout clean

--json: return transferId, outputRoot, and saved file paths

--api-url <url>: override the default <share-origin>/api/v1

Useful examples:

bun scripts/download.mjs "http://localhost:8080/t/abc123#k=..."

bun scripts/download.mjs --output ./downloads "http://localhost:8080/t/abc123#k=..."

bun scripts/download.mjs --quiet --json --output ./downloads "http://localhost:8080/t/abc123#k=..."

By default the downloader writes to ./xdrop-<transferId> and preserves the manifest's relative paths.

Gotchas

A download link without the #k=... fragment is not decryptable. Ask for the full original share URL.

Use --quiet whenever another command or caller needs to capture stdout. Progress logs otherwise go to stderr, but the final result still matters.

Guardrails

Prefer --quiet when another command or script needs to capture stdout.

Keep the full share link fragment intact for downloads.

Do not bypass the scripts' built-in path sanitization or transfer cleanup behavior with manual ad hoc commands unless the user explicitly asks.
