Implementation Final Review
by openai
vendor

Perform a risk-tiered zero-base final review for implementations before completion. Use only when the user explicitly invokes $implementation-final-review or repository instructions authorize automatic invocation after implementation. Audit the complete merge-base diff for requirement fit, contract-surface coverage, await-boundary and lifecycle gaps, released compatibility, package and runtime boundaries, security and persistence, unnecessary complexity, generated types, and adversarial coverage; use self-contained reviewer briefs and concurrent independent reviewers for elevated-risk changes, overlap non-mutating final repository verification with reviewer waits on the same frozen fingerprint, require evidence-bearing clean results, preserve clean evidence for unchanged review components, fix actionable findings, reset expanding designs, and escalate non-convergence after at most six review rounds.

14k tokens scripts
Implementation Strategy
by openai
vendor

Choose compatibility-aware scope for runtime and API changes in openai-agents-js. Use before initial implementation and each review-feedback batch to decide whether to patch, reset the design, preserve compatibility, or reject unsupported cases.

3k tokens
Maintainer Review
by openai
vendor

Review a GitHub issue or pull request URL as an openai-agents-js maintainer, with a staged assessment of whether the claim is real, practically important, already solvable with supported functionality, correctly scoped, better served by another design, and worth maintainer and contributor effort. Use when assessing issue validity or severity, deciding whether an issue should be prioritized or closed, determining whether a requested feature represents an unmet need rather than a discoverability or usage gap, judging whether a PR is worth bringing to mergeable quality, comparing open PRs or alternative designs, separating code quality from repository readiness, or drafting a concise maintainer assessment. When closure, additional evidence, or code changes should be requested, also produce a polite, concise, complete, copy-paste-ready maintainer comment.

12k tokens
Docs Sync
by openai
vendor

Analyze main branch implementation and configuration to find missing, incorrect, or outdated documentation in docs/. Use when asked to audit doc coverage, sync docs with code, or propose doc updates/structure changes. Only update English docs (docs/src/content/docs/**) and never touch translated docs under docs/src/content/docs/ja, ko, or zh. Provide a report and ask for approval before editing docs.

2k tokens
Openai Knowledge
by openai
vendor

Use when working with the OpenAI API (Responses API) or OpenAI platform features (tools, streaming, Realtime API, auth, models, rate limits, MCP) and you need authoritative, up-to-date documentation (schemas, examples, limits, edge cases). Prefer the OpenAI Developer Documentation MCP server tools when available; otherwise guide the user to enable `openaiDeveloperDocs`.

527 tokens
Pr Draft Summary
by openai
vendor

Create the required PR-ready summary block, branch suggestion, title, and draft description for openai-agents-js. Must be used before the final response whenever the actual task diff includes runtime code, tests, examples, build/test configuration, or docs with behavior impact, regardless of perceived change size. Skip only when no eligible files changed, every change is repo-meta or docs-only without behavior impact, the task is conversation-only, or the user explicitly opts out.

1k tokens
Runtime Behavior Probe
by openai
vendor

Plan and execute runtime-behavior investigations with temporary TypeScript probe scripts, validation matrices, state controls, and findings-first reports. Use only when the user explicitly invokes this skill to verify actual runtime behavior beyond normal code-level checks, especially to uncover edge cases, undocumented behavior, or common failure modes in local or live integrations. A baseline smoke check is fine as an entry point, but do not stop at happy-path confirmation.

14k tokens scripts
Sensitive Logging Audit
by openai
vendor

Audit and fix model or tool input/output exposure through runtime logging in openai-agents-js. Use when reviewing logger or console calls, checking OPENAI_AGENTS_DONT_LOG_MODEL_DATA or OPENAI_AGENTS_DONT_LOG_TOOL_DATA coverage, investigating exceptions or payloads that may reveal model inputs and outputs, tool arguments and results, Realtime events, MCP data, session history, or arbitrary thrown values, while distinguishing those payloads from operational names, identifiers, counts, and statuses.

vendor

> Use this skill when editing or creating CLI output, logging, warnings, error messages, progress indicators, or diagnostic summaries in the APM codebase. Activate whenever code touches console helpers (_rich_success, _rich_warning, _rich_error, _rich_info, _rich_echo), DiagnosticCollector, STATUS_SYMBOLS, CommandLogger, or any user-facing terminal output — even if the user doesn't mention "logging" or "UX" explicitly.

4k tokens
Apm Issue Autopilot
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to drive any open microsoft/apm issue (bug, feature, docs, refactor, perf) from raw intake to a mergeable PR with triage as the central, paramount gate. Run the apm-triage-panel rubric per issue first, then present ONE consolidated triage review for the whole batch and escalate to the maintainer BY DEFAULT on any doubt (needs-design, decline, duplicate, defer, auto-handle, breaking- change, auth/security/governance surface, low arbiter confidence, unbounded scope, or a missing brief); only auto-implement clear, bounded, high-confidence accepts the maintainer approved. Then drive each accepted PR to mergeability batch-bug- follow-ups by default, watch CI green, iterate under a bounded cap. Invoke MANUALLY, in-session, on an issue list or queue -- never by label or event. Activate when the maintainer asks to auto-tackle the issue queue, clear the backlog to PRs, or run issues to merge -- even if "autopilot" is not named.

31k tokens scripts
Auth
by microsoft
vendor

> Activate when code touches token management, credential resolution, git auth flows, GITHUB_APM_PAT, ADO_APM_PAT, AuthResolver, HostInfo, AuthContext, or any remote host authentication -- even if 'auth' isn't mentioned explicitly.

757 tokens
Batch Bug Shepherd
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to drive a batch of suspected bugs in microsoft/apm from raw issue list to mergeable PR queue. Fan out one triage subagent per issue (LEGIT / UNCLEAR / FIXED-AT-HEAD), gate every legit bug against PRINCIPLES.md via an apm-ceo strategic-alignment pass, cross-reference legit issues against open PRs, then open a fix PR (TDD + mutation-break gate) for greenfield bugs. Drive every PR -- community in-flight and own fix alike -- to mergeable by review panel, folds non-blocking recommendations, pushes (preserving author), and watches CI to green. Re-probe mergeability and resolve conflicts via shepherd-driver. Maintain a plan.md ground-truth table as canonical state. Activate when the maintainer asks to triage issues, sweep the bug queue, shepherd bug-flagged issues, run a weekly community sweep, or drive in-flight community PRs to merge -- even if "shepherd" or "batch" is not named.

37k tokens scripts
Apm Spec Guardian
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to run a four-panel adversarial advisory review on any pull request that touches the OpenAPM specification artifact (docs/src/content/docs/specs/openapm-*.md), its inline / sidecar JSON Schemas (docs/src/content/docs/specs/schemas/*.schema.json), or the conformance fixture seed (tests/fixtures/spec-conformance/**). The panel fans out to four spec-ecosystem reviewers (swagger-openapi-editor, oci-distribution-editor, pkgmgr-registry-contract-editor, w3c-tag-architect), each running in its own agent thread, and a spec-editor synthesizer that produces a fold-now / defer-v0.1.1 / defer-v0.2 / reject list plus a ship decision keyed off a 1..10 shocked_meter scale. The orchestrator is labels, no merge gating. The panel is advisory -- it surfaces findings, prioritizes folds, and renders a ship recommendation that the maintainer weighs.

11k tokens
Apm Review Panel
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to run a multi-persona expert advisory review on a labelled pull request in microsoft/apm. The panel fans out to five mandatory specialists plus a test-coverage specialist (active on every PR that touches src/) plus three conditional specialists (auth, doc-writer, performance-expert), all running in their own agent threads, and a CEO recommendation comment, no verdict labels, no merge gating. The panel is advisory -- it surfaces findings, prioritizes follow-ups, and renders a ship-recommendation that the maintainer and author weigh. Activate when a non-trivial PR needs a cross-cutting recommendation (architecture, CLI logging, DevX UX, supply-chain security, growth/positioning, optionally auth, docs, perf, and test coverage, with CEO arbitration).

25k tokens scripts
Docs Grounding Verifier
by microsoft
vendor

Use this skill to verify CLAIM-LEVEL grounding of a documentation page (or set of pages) against the source code. Activate when you have specific pages to check for factual accuracy -- not when sweeping a whole corpus (use docs-corpus-audit for that) and not when triaging a PR diff (use docs-sync for that). Trigger nouns: "is this doc accurate", "verify the page against the code", "fact-check this section", "any claims that drifted from source", "fact-checking", "grounding audit", "drift hunt", "claim verification". Returns per-claim verdicts (GROUNDED | PARTIAL | CONTRADICTED | UNSUPPORTED) with file:line evidence citations. Catches paragraph-level inaccuracies that page-level audit averages over -- e.g. a paragraph with 5 claims where 4 are grounded and 1 is fabricated. Does NOT modify files (returns advisory only); does NOT re-architect the docs; does NOT triage PRs.

132k tokens scripts
Cut Release
by microsoft
vendor

>- assess whether the cycle since the last tag warrants a patch or minor bump (semver discipline against the merged-since-last-tag diff), sanitize the [Unreleased] CHANGELOG block into a dated version block with one concise "so what" entry per merged PR (drop internal-only churn, consolidate duplicates), bump pyproject.toml + uv.lock, run the CI-mirror lint chain, and open the release PR. Activate on "ship a release", "cut v0.x", "release prep", "bump and PR", "open release PR", "what kind of release do we need", or any phrasing that ends in opening a release PR -- even when the user does not say "skill". Stops BEFORE tagging; tagging stays a human gate that triggers the release workflow. Refuses to bump to a major (>= 1.0.0) version without explicit operator confirmation.

9k tokens scripts
Docs Corpus Audit
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to run a holistic regrounding pass on the entire microsoft/apm documentation corpus against current source code, page-by-page, and emit surgical fixes for stale claims. Activate when the maintainer wants a WHOLE-CORPUS audit (not per-PR review) -- typical triggers include "audit the docs", "reground the corpus", "check every page against code", "pre-release docs sweep", "the docs have drifted everywhere", or "we just reshaped the TOC, find dead links". Wave-batched and S7-verified; scales to the full ~112-page corpus in ~10 minutes wall-time. This is a (triggered by a diff); this skill is per-corpus (triggered by a maintainer ask). They share agent personas, schemas, and the docs index, but their triggers MUST NOT collide. Does NOT auto-merge, does NOT push without maintainer review, and does NOT replace per-PR drift detection.

6k tokens scripts
Docs Impact Classifier
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to classify the documentation impact of a pull request diff, returning one of three verdicts -- no-change, in-place edit, or structural change -- with bounded LLM cost. Activate as a sibling skill of docs-sync; the orchestrator calls this first, before any panel spawn, to keep cost floor at 1 LLM call when no docs work is needed. Reads .apm/docs-index.yml as the corpus map; never reads the full corpus.

2k tokens
Devx Ux
by microsoft
vendor

>- Activate when designing or modifying CLI command surfaces, command help text, install/init/run flows, error wording, or first-run experience in the APM CLI -- even when the user does not say "UX" explicitly.

285 tokens
Docs Impact Localizer
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to translate a classifier's in-place verdict into a precise, page-by-page work plan for the docs-sync panel. Activate after docs-impact-classifier returns verdict in_place; reads the candidate page list, fetches the actual page contents, narrows scope to specific sections within each page, and emits the per-page task brief the panel fans out against.

1k tokens
Docs Impact Architect
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill when the docs-impact-classifier returns a structural verdict, signalling that the documentation TOC must change to accommodate the PR. Proposes TOC deltas (new pages, moves, merges) and emits new-page outline stubs that the doc-sync panel later fleshes out. Holds the 3-promise narrative (consume / produce / govern) and the persona ramps as hard constraints.

2k tokens
Docs Sync
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill whenever a pull request is opened, reopened, or synchronized in microsoft/apm to assess whether and how the documentation corpus must change to stay truthful with the proposed code change. Activate even when the PR title or body says nothing about docs -- the skill must run on every PR to detect silent drift between code and docs. Classifies impact as no-change, in-place edit (one to a few paragraphs), or structural change (new page or TOC reshape), then orchestrates a CDO + doc-writer + python-architect + editorial-owner + growth-hacker loop to produce a patch-ready advisory. Does NOT review code quality, security, or test coverage. Does NOT auto-merge or auto-push doc edits.

6k tokens
Shepherd Driver
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use only as the composed drive-to-merge stage of an APM batch orchestrator (batch-bug-shepherd, apm-issue-autopilot) that has already selected ONE open pull request in microsoft/apm. Do NOT use for user-facing requests to triage issues, sweep a queue, or open PRs -- the parent orchestrator owns those. Spawn one shepherd-driver inline review, runs the apm-review-panel, folds (by default) every recommendation inside the PR's stated scope, pushes to the head branch or a superseding PR that preserves authorship via commit trailers, watches CI to green, and iterates under fixed caps until ready-to-merge, advisory-with-deferred, superseded, or blocked. Also provides the cross-PR conflict-resolution and mergeability-gate phase. This is NOT a standalone entrypoint.

30k tokens scripts
Pr Description Skill
by microsoft
vendor

>- Use this skill to write the PR description (PR body) for any pull request opened against microsoft/apm. Produces one self-sufficient (WHAT), Implementation (HOW), 1-3 validated mermaid diagrams, explicit trade-offs, validation evidence, and a How-to-test section -- with every WHY-claim backed by a verbatim quote from PROSE or Agent Skills. Activate when the user asks to "write a PR description", "draft a PR body", "open a PR", "fill in the PR template", or any equivalent.

21k tokens scripts
Apm Strategy
by microsoft
vendor

>- Activate for changes to project positioning, release communication, community-facing artifacts, or breaking-change decisions in microsoft/apm. Triggers on README, MANIFESTO, PRD, CHANGELOG, release workflows, and issue templates.

Claude Skills — questions

Answers built from the skills we actually parsed.

What is a Claude Skill?
A folder with a SKILL.md file: instructions that teach an agent to do one thing well, optionally with scripts and reference files alongside. The format is open and called Agent Skills — Claude Code, Codex and other agents read the same files. It is not a program you run; it is knowledge the agent loads when the task calls for it.
How is a skill different from an MCP server?
A server gives the agent new abilities — it connects to something and exposes tools. A skill gives the agent knowledge: how to use what it already has. They combine, and often literally: 11 329 of the skills here declare which MCP servers they need to work.
Why are there fewer skills here than in other catalogues?
Because we deduplicate by content. Of 79 404 files found on GitHub, 61 763 are unique — the rest is the same skill copied into someone else's repository, word for word. Catalogues that count files rather than skills show every copy as a separate entry.
What does the token count mean?
A skill is loaded into the model's context when it is used, so its size is a running cost on every request that touches it. We measure the whole folder, not just SKILL.md: one official skill is 377 tokens, another drags 83 files of fonts behind it.
How do I install a skill?
Copy the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project. The agent picks it up by the name in the SKILL.md header — which is worth checking: 7 882 skills here share a name with another skill, and two of them cannot sit side by side.
