Use this instead. VALORANT-skin-cli is no longer being maintained or updated.

A simple command line interface to manage VALORANT skins, including a skin randomizer

NOTE: This does not grant free skins; it only works with skins you already own. This is not a cheat and does not interact with game files AT ALL.

Getting Started

Setup

Download the .exe from here

NOTE: Your antivirus might mark the executable as malware, but this is a side effect of building the executable with PyInstaller. Check FAQ for further information and steps to get back your file. I've rebuilt the executables with Python 3.7 and it seems they aren't being marked as malware anymore!

If you'd rather build the executable yourself, download the release .zip file and run build.bat, or run.bat to execute the script directly. To test the latest features, join the Discord server and download the latest beta.

Usage

1. Ensure that VALORANT is already running. This app requires VALORANT to be running
2. Run the .exe file you downloaded

This presents you with a command line interface(CLI) where you need to type in commands to navigate the program. Basic setup of the program can he found here and the full list of commands are available here.

Current Features

• Randomize skins with full customization of which skins, levels, and chromas are in the randomizer pool (basically a favorites system)
• Change individual skin levels and chromas, including downgrading skins which is not possible in-game (fix your Prime Karambit!)
• Loadout profile system with support for unlimited loadouts

FAQ

Q: Will I get banned for using this?
A: u/Riot_Giraffy (a Riot Engineer) confirmed:

Using the client API to modify loadouts does not seem ban worthy. The client API isn't officially supported for third party use, so don't expect future compatibility.

Q: How do I downgrade my skins?
A: For example, if you want to set your Prime Karambit to Level 1: set Melee Prime//2.0-Karambit Level-1

Q: Can I set the skin to something I don't own?
A: No.

Q: Why does windows defender say it's a virus? A: @markhank:

Code compiled using pyinstaller or py2exe is often incorrectly to be malware or a virus or a trojan by various antivirus programs. It can often have scary names like Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.C!ml. This is most likely what is known in the virus industry as a “false positive”. Your code might not be doing anything malicious, but because it was compiled in a way that looks a bit like other code which might do malicious things antivirus judges it to be a virus.

To recover the .exe from Windows Defender:

1. Open Windows Defender
2. Select Virus & threat protection and then click Protection history
3. In the list of all recent items, filter on Quarantined Items
4. Select the .exe, press the Actions button, and press Restore

To prevent Windows Defender from quarantining the file again:

1. Open Windows Defender
2. Select Virus & threat protection and under Virus & threat protection setting click Manage settings
3. Scroll down to Exclusions and click Add or remove exclusions
4. Click Add an exclusion, click File and then select the downloaded.exefile

What's next

• Loadout profile system
• • Loadout profile randomizer
• Create a React frontend in an electron container to streamline and simplify the program
