Development Claude Skills
8 676 development skills from 759 authors. They write and change code. Half of them fit into 1 830 tokens or less — that is what one costs your context window when the agent loads it. 1 213 ship runnable scripts rather than instructions alone. 42 of them cannot work without an MCP server, most often rube. We also found 1 172 copies of these same skills sitting in other people's repositories — counted once here, not 1 172 times.

Required reading whenever any shell_* tool is available. Teaches the foreground/background dichotomy (terminal_exec auto-promotes past 30s, returns a job_id you poll with terminal_job_logs), the standard envelope shape (exit_code, stdout, stdout_truncated_bytes, output_handle, semantic_status, warning, auto_backgrounded, job_id), output handle pagination via terminal_output_get, when to read semantic_status instead of raw exit_code (grep/rg/find/diff/test exit 1 is NOT an error), the destructive-warning surface (rm -rf, git push --force, DROP TABLE), tool preference (use files-tools / gcu-tools / hive_tools before raw shell), and the bash-only-on-macOS policy. Skipping this leads to "tool returned no output" surprises, orphaned jobs, and panic over benign grep exit codes.
Use terminal_rg / terminal_find when you need raw filesystem search outside the project tree — system configs, /var/log, /etc, archive contents — or when files-tools.search_files is too project-scoped. Teaches the rg vs find vs terminal_exec("ls/du/tree") split, common rg flag combos for code/logs/configs, find predicates for mtime/size/type queries, and the rule that for tree views or single-file stat info you should just use terminal_exec instead of inventing a tool. Read before reaching for raw shell to grep or find anything.

Build and deploy an MCP server from an OpenAPI / Swagger spec using the mcp-use TypeScript SDK. Use this skill whenever the user wants to "turn this OpenAPI spec into an MCP server", "make this API usable from Claude/ChatGPT", "wrap this Swagger doc as MCP tools", "expose this REST API to an LLM", "generate MCP tools from a spec", or pastes/attaches an `openapi.yaml`, `openapi.json`, or `swagger.json` and asks for a Claude-compatible version. Trigger even if the user doesn't say "MCP" — if they describe an existing HTTP API (REST endpoints, an internal service, a third-party API they have a key for) and want an LLM to call it, this is the right skill. Covers spec ingestion (file path, URL, or pasted), operation-to-tool mapping, auth wiring (apiKey, bearer, basic, OAuth bearer), scaffolding with `create-mcp-use-app`, tool generation with proper zod schemas, live testing in the mcp-use inspector, and deploying to Manufact / mcp-use cloud.
First-time analysis of a repository with no prior reviewer outcomes. Crawl historical merged-PR review feedback with the gh CLI (plus any preloaded samples), extract the team's review norms, and synthesize the initial per-repo review-style prompt.

Scan an ADK recipe directory and generate a manifest.yaml for it based on the schema at .github/schemas/manifest-schema.json. Use when the user wants to create or generate a manifest.yaml for a recipe under core/, contrib/, or skills/.
> Aligns a Python recipe's pyproject.toml with the repo's standards enforced by .github/workflows/python-validate-recipe.yml, plus one critical [build-system] presence check. Scope is pyproject.toml only — standalone ruff.toml / .ruff.toml files (also forbidden in recipes) are caught by the --dry-run that reports what needs alignment, and an apply mode that rewrites pyproject.toml (and optionally manifest.yaml) using comment-preserving TOML/YAML editors. Use when the user wants to "align the recipe's pyproject.toml", "fix pyproject to match the repo standard", "check what needs changing in a recipe's pyproject", or clean up a recipe before submitting a PR.
> Generates a lightweight `tests/test_runnability.py` for a Python recipe. The test just imports the recipe's agent module and asserts that `root_agent is not None` (and `app is not None` if the module defines one). The skill parses agent.py with `ast` to figure out which import-time side effects need mocking (`vertexai.init`, `google.auth.default`) and which env vars need setting (`GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT`, `INTEGRATION_TEST`), and only emits the boilerplate the recipe actually needs. Runs in dry-run (report + preview) and apply (write to disk) modes. Use when the user wants to "add a runnability test", "generate test_runnability.py", "create a smoke test for the recipe", or fix the missing-required-file failure from `python-validate-recipe.yml`.
> This skill should be used when the user wants to "create a new Python ADK sample", "scaffold a new Python sample recipe", "generate a new Python sample in contrib", "add a new Python sample to the adk-samples repository", or "create a Python adk sample". It utilizes an automated script to copy template files and resolve basic placeholders.
> Scans a Python recipe to find every place an environment variable is accessed — including `os.environ.setdefault("V", "d")`, whose "d" would otherwise be a hidden default a user editing .env.example has no way to discover — then ensures all variables are declared in `.env.example`, that `load_dotenv()` is bootstrapped in the package `__init__.py`, and that `python-dotenv>=1.0.0` is listed in `pyproject.toml`. When a new entry is added to `.env.example`, the extracted default from source is and provenance comment); values that look like stubs (`"my-project-id"`, `"changeme"`, `"<...>"`) are downgraded to the TODO placeholder but the source string is preserved in the marker comment. Also detects hardcoded model-name string literals (e.g. `"gemini-3.5-flash"` in `agent.py`) and rewrites them to an `os.getenv(...)` call. The variable name is derived from the assignment target when it names a model (`DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL` → `EMBEDDING_MODEL`), else `MODEL_NAME` (single model) or `MODEL_NAME_GENERATED_1` / `MODEL_NAME_GENERATED_2`, … (multiple models). Normally no fallback default is written into the Python source; the one exception is when no `load_dotenv()` bootstrap could be installed (no package `__init__.py`), where the original literal is kept as the fallback so the lookup cannot evaluate to `None` at runtime. The model string is written as the value in `.env.example` with a comment prompting a rename. When re-run against a recipe whose `.env.example` already has entries, the writer classifies each entry (skill-authored vs. user-authored, TODO vs. real value) and only rewrites lines it can prove it authored; user-authored lines are always preserved. A stale TODO (either inline comment) is upgraded in place when source can supply a real default. (1) USER-EDIT SAFETY. Any `.env.example` line the skill cannot prove it authored is USER_OWNED and is never modified. The rewriter fails closed on any structural ambiguity (quoted values, backslash continuation, duplicate declarations) — a stale TODO left in place is cheap; a clobbered user edit is not. (2) ADDITIVE-ONLY FOR PYTHON FILES. The skill never writes new `os.environ.setdefault(...)` bootstrap lines into any Python file. Pre-existing `os.environ.setdefault(...)` or `os.getenv("VAR", "default")` calls that the recipe author wrote by hand are LEFT UNTOUCHED — the skill's only writes to Python files are relative imports that would otherwise trip Ruff; (c) hardcoded model-literal replacement. Use when the user wants to "extract env vars", "update .env.example", "add load_dotenv", "surface setdefault defaults", "upgrade stale TODOs in .env.example", "replace hardcoded model names", or "fix environment variables" in a Python recipe.
> End-to-end orchestration to prepare or update a Python recipe under core/python/, contrib/python/, or skills/<vertical>/<solution>/ so it passes every check in .github/workflows/python-validate-recipe.yml. Runs eight phases in environment-variable extraction, pyproject.toml alignment, ruff format+check, per-recipe `uv lock`, runnability-test generation, compile-and-run verification of the generated test file, and a final pass through the repo's own `validate manifest` / `validate structure` validators. Assumes the user has already done the manual prep (deactivated any venv, `git pull` and `uv sync` from the repo root, placed the recipe at its target path, renamed if needed). Delegates to the existing sub-skills (generate-manifest, extract-python-environment-variables, align-recipe-pyproject, generate-python-runnability-test) so the master never duplicates their logic. Pauses at fixed decision points (description mismatch, existing test regeneration) AND is free to interrupt for clarification any time a phase's output looks ambiguous, unexpected, or would benefit from a human judgment call — this is an interactive skill by design. Use when the user wants to "prepare a recipe", "update a recipe end to end", "run all the checks and fixes", "make this recipe PR-ready", or invokes it by name.

Accept plain-language requirements or pasted Mermaid flowchart, sequenceDiagram, and stateDiagram input; inspect repository evidence when the diagram must reflect real code. Use when the user asks to visualize system architecture, infrastructure, cloud/security/network topology, technical workflows, API call sequences, request lifecycles, data pipelines, ETL/ELT, data lineage, state machines, or to convert/beautify Mermaid.
>- module structure, services, controllers, DTOs, dependency injection, and error handling. Use when editing any file under redisinsight/api/**, writing or modifying NestJS modules, controllers, services, DTOs, providers, or when the user mentions the backend, API, or NestJS.
>- Create and name git branches following project conventions. Use when creating branches, checking out new branches, or the user mentions branch naming.
>- Find and safely remove unused ("dead") npm dependencies in RedisInsight using a grep + leaf-check + build-gate recipe. Use when cleaning up dependencies, investigating whether a package is still used, removing a suspected leftover, or when the user mentions dead deps, unused dependencies, dependency cleanup, leftover packages, or "is this safe to remove". Complements the weekly vulnerability audit (`scripts/dependency-audit-report.mjs`), which only reports vulnerabilities.
>- naming conventions (camelCase, PascalCase, UPPER_SNAKE_CASE), linting rules, no `any` without reason, no `!important` in styles, and constant extraction. Use when writing or refactoring any TypeScript/JavaScript code in this repo, when ESLint or Prettier issues come up, or when the user mentions code style, lint, naming conventions, or general code quality.
>- push, or force-push directly to main, latest, or release branches; no destructive history rewrites without explicit user approval. Use before any git operation that touches protected branches, before force-push, reset --hard, history rewrite, or branch deletion, or whenever the user asks about merging, pushing, or release branches.
>- Run, refresh, or recover from RedisInsight's per-project TypeScript error baselines (.tscheck.rec.json). Use when CI reports "baseline is outdated" or "more TS errors than previously recorded", when the user mentions tscheck / type-check / .tscheck.rec.json, when introducing or fixing TS errors, or when reviewing PRs that touch baseline files.
>- Locate and modify TypeScript configuration in RedisInsight. Use when adding path aliases, introducing a new TS area, debugging webpack/ts-node/ESLint path resolution, or the user asks about tsconfig, path mappings, or where TypeScript is configured.
