Claude Skills
The open format is called Agent Skills and works in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents — most people know it as Claude Skills.
Every Agent Skill we could find on GitHub, deduplicated by content. 79 404 files from 1 741 authors, of which 61 763 are unique — the rest is the same skill repackaged into someone else's repository. For each one: what it weighs in tokens, whether it ships runnable scripts, and which MCP servers it needs.

Add a new test to the Skia repository. Use this skill when you need to create a new unit or integration test in the tests/ directory and ensure it's part of the build system.
MANDATORY: Use this skill for ANY and ALL tasks involving building Skia with GN, Ninja, or compiling any Skia tool. It is the authoritative source for Skia's build workflows and MUST be used whenever compilation is required.
SOP for debugging browser automation failures on complex websites. Use when browser tools fail on specific sites like LinkedIn, Twitter/X, SPAs, or sites with Shadow DOM.
Claim tasks, record step progress, and verify SOP gates in the colony SQLite queue. Applies when your spawn message includes a db_path field.
Proactively extract critical values from tool results into working notes before automatic context pruning destroys them.
Follow a structured recovery decision tree when tool calls fail instead of blindly retrying or giving up.
Maintain a free-form scratchpad of decisions, extracted values, and open questions so context pruning doesn't lose anything you still need.
Periodically self-assess output quality to catch degradation before the judge does.
Author a new Agent Skill for a Hive agent that conforms to the Agent Skills specification (SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter, optional scripts/references/assets directories). Use when the user asks to create, scaffold, add, or package a new skill for a Hive agent.
Required before any browser_* tool call. Teaches the screenshot + browser_click_coordinate workflow that reaches shadow-DOM inputs selectors can't see, the CSS-pixel coordinate rule (not physical px), rich-text editor quirks ("send button stays disabled" failures), and CSP gotchas. Covers Chrome via CDP through the GCU Beeline extension. Skipping this causes repeated failures on LinkedIn / Reddit / X. Verified against real production sites 2026-04-11.
Required reading whenever any chart_* tool is available. Teaches the one-tool embedding contract (call chart_render → live chart appears in chat AND a downloadable PNG lands in the queen session dir), the ECharts (data viz) vs Mermaid (structural diagrams) decision, the BI/financial-grade aesthetic baseline (no chartjunk, restrained palette, proper typography, single message per chart), and the canonical spec patterns for the 12 most-common chart types. Skipping this leads to 1990s-Excel charts, missing downloads, and the agent writing markdown image links by hand instead of letting chart_render drive the UI.
Read before automating LinkedIn with browser_* tools. LinkedIn combines shadow DOM (#interop-outlet), strict Trusted Types CSP that silently drops innerHTML, Lexical composer, native beforeunload dialogs that hang the bridge, and aggressive spam filters — each has bitten us at least once. Verified flows for profile messaging, connection-request acceptance, feed composition, and search. Requires hive.browser-automation. Verified against logged-in production 2026-04-11.
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.
Use when launching anything that runs longer than a minute, anything that streams logs, anything you want to keep running while doing other work — or when terminal_exec auto-backgrounded on you and returned a job_id. Teaches the start→poll→wait pattern with terminal_job_logs offset bookkeeping, the `wait_until_exit=True` blocking-poll idiom, the truncated_bytes_dropped resumption signal, the merge_stderr decision, the SIGINT→SIGTERM→SIGKILL escalation ladder via terminal_job_manage, and the hard rule that jobs die when the terminal-tools server restarts. Read before calling terminal_job_start, or right after terminal_exec auto-backgrounded.
Use when you need state across calls — building env vars, navigating with cd, driving REPLs (python -i, mysql, psql, node), or responding to interactive prompts (sudo password, ssh host-key confirmation, mysql connection). Teaches the prompt-sentinel exec pattern (default mode), raw I/O for REPLs (raw_send=True then read_only=True), the one-in-flight-per-session rule, and the close-or-leak-against-the-cap discipline. Bash on macOS — never zsh; explicit shell=/bin/zsh is rejected. Read before calling terminal_pty_open.
Read when a terminal-tools call returned something surprising — empty stdout despite no error, exit_code is null, output_handle came back expired, "too many jobs" / "session busy" / "too many PTYs", warning was set unexpectedly, semantic_status disagrees with exit_code. Diagnostic recipes only — load on demand. Don't preload; the foundational skill covers the happy path.
Read before automating X / Twitter with browser_* tools. Verified flows for post, reply, delete, search-and-engage, plus the Draft.js compose quirks that silently disable the send button. Includes the daily-reply and job-market-reply playbooks. Requires hive.browser-automation for the underlying screenshot + coordinate workflow. Verified 2026-04-11.
Prepare already-public npm packages for pre-release publishing. Keywords: prerelease, pre-release, publish, npm, alpha, beta, rc, release group.
Build, modify, debug, migrate, or review TypeScript MCP servers and interactive MCP Apps using mcp-use v2. Use for tools, resources, prompts, Views, React host interactions, OAuth, middleware, Inspector workflows, package-boundary migrations, and release-ready verification in an mcp-use project.
Build, modify, debug, or review ChatGPT Apps with mcp-use.
Build, modify, debug, or review TypeScript MCP servers with mcp-use.
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.
Nightly refinement of an existing per-repo review-style prompt using this reviewer's own finding outcomes. Read confirmed (resolved-by-commit / thumbs-up) and dismissed (thumbs-down) findings, promote the bug patterns the team actually fixes, demote the false-positive patterns, reconcile against the current prompt, and save the refined version. Use this once outcomes exist; use bootstrap-repo-analysis for a cold-start repo.
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. Use this for a cold-start repo; use continual-learning instead once the reviewer has accumulated finding outcomes.
Use this skill when creating a new Java E2E integration test (failsafe IT) that requires a new replay proxy YAML snapshot file in test/snapshots/
Use this skill whenever editing `*.rs` files in the `rust/` SDK in order to write idiomatic, efficient, well-structured Rust code
Use this skill whenever editing `*.java` files in the `java/` directore of the SDK in order to write idiomatic, well-structured Java code for the Copilot SDK
Run a bounded, source-grounded research loop, draft a cited dossier, and optionally propose a separately reviewed canonical vault merge. Use when the user wants autonomous or deep research that may access the public web. Triggers: /autoresearch, autoresearch, research this topic, deep dive into, investigate, find everything about, research and file, go research, build a wiki on.
Create, inspect, and update Obsidian JSON Canvas boards with text, file, link, group, and edge nodes. Use for canvas status, canvas lists, visual maps, zones, spatial layouts, adding vault notes or media to a .canvas file, and requests such as create canvas, add to canvas, or put this on the canvas.
Plan and, with explicit network consent, use an optional external Defuddle cleaner to extract article-like HTTPS pages as Markdown. Use for defuddle, clean this URL, strip page clutter, readable Markdown from a web page, or preparing a web source for later wiki ingestion.
Explain, draft, and validate Obsidian Bases .base files with filters, formulas, properties, summaries, and table, card, or list views. Use for Obsidian Bases, database-like vault views, dynamic tables, reading lists, task trackers, filters, formulas, summaries, and .base file edits.
Explain, draft, or validate Obsidian Flavored Markdown syntax: properties, wikilinks, embeds, callouts, tags, comments, highlights, block references, math, and Mermaid. Use when the user explicitly requests Obsidian note formatting or syntax help, not for general Markdown or broad vault operations.
Save a user-selected answer, decision, insight, or session summary into an Obsidian vault as one reviewed transaction. Use only when the user explicitly asks to preserve specific conversation content, not when they supply a file or URL to ingest. Triggers: /save, save this, save that answer, file this conversation, save this analysis, keep this insight, preserve this chat result.
Apply the Fable-derived 10-stage OBSERVE, OBSERVE, LISTEN, THINK, CONNECT, CONNECT, FEEL, ACCEPT, CREATE, GROW loop to consequential or ambiguous reasoning and decisions. Use for think this through, deep think, architecture review, postmortem, tradeoff analysis, or challenges to assumptions. This is a reasoning review, not a deterministic vault health check or repair workflow.
Detect and use the official Obsidian command-line interface for read-only vault access; use for wiki-cli, Obsidian CLI, Obsidian read, Obsidian search, vault transport, which transport, transport detection, backlinks, tags, or Obsidian command line. Mutations always go through the claude-obsidian transaction core.
Create a bounded, extractive, structurally idempotent rollup of recent Obsidian wiki log entries, with dry-run preview by default and one optional transaction apply. Use for manual log compression without modifying child pages. Triggers: fold the log, run a fold, run wiki-fold, log rollup, roll up log entries, commit the fold.
Ingest supplied source material into an Obsidian vault with provenance and claim tracking: pasted text, files staged in the selected vault's inbox or .raw archive, or explicitly approved URLs. Use for a single source or bounded batch, not for saving an assistant answer. Triggers: ingest, ingest this file, ingest this URL, process this source, read and file this source, batch ingest, ingest these sources.
Run a deterministic, read-only health check on an Obsidian wiki. Use for lint, vault health check, audit wiki health, find orphans, find dead links, frontmatter audit, provenance audit, or wiki audit. Reports graph, link, frontmatter, provenance-ledger, empty-section, and stale-index findings; it does not reason broadly or repair files.
