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. 79 566 files from 1 758 authors, of which 61 913 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.

7 agentic design patterns with decision tree for choosing the right pattern for each agent type
Designs system architecture with C4 diagrams and technology selection. Routes to the right architect based on design scope (system, domain, application, or full stack). Two interaction modes: guide (collaborative Q&A) or propose (architect presents options with trade-offs).
Rollback procedures, risk assessment, pre/post-deployment validation, and contingency planning. Load when orchestrating deployment or preparing rollback plans. For deployment strategy details (canary, blue-green, rolling), see `cicd-and-deployment` skill.
Apple LeanUX++ design workflow, journey schema, emotional arc patterns, and CLI UX patterns. Load when transitioning from discovery to visualization or when designing journey artifacts.
Designs CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure, observability, and deployment strategy. Use when preparing platform readiness for a feature.
Generates C4 architecture diagrams (context, container, component) in Mermaid or PlantUML. Use when creating or updating architecture visualizations.
Question-first approach to understanding user journeys. Load when starting a new journey design or when the discovery phase needs deepening.
Conducts evidence-based product discovery through customer interviews and assumption testing. Use at project start to validate problem-solution fit.
Generates 3-5 divergent design directions through JTBD analysis, competitive research, structured brainstorming, and taste evaluation before convergence. Use when the team has a validated problem but hasn't chosen a solution approach.
Conducts Jobs-to-be-Done analysis, UX journey design, and requirements gathering through interactive discovery. Use when starting feature analysis, defining user stories, or creating acceptance criteria.
4-phase discovery workflow with decision gates, phase transitions, success metrics, and state tracking
Acceptance test creation methodology for the DISTILL wave. Domain knowledge for the acceptance designer agent: port-to-port principle, prior wave reading, wave-decision reconciliation, graceful degradation, and document back-propagation.
Review criteria for the nw-diverger-reviewer — validates JTBD rigor, research quality, option diversity, taste application correctness, and recommendation coherence in DIVERGE wave artifacts
DIVIO/Diataxis four-quadrant documentation framework - type definitions, classification decision tree, and signal catalog
Creates evidence-based documentation following DIVIO/Diataxis principles. Use when writing tutorials, how-to guides, reference docs, or explanations.
Strategic and tactical DDD patterns, bounded context discovery, context mapping, aggregate design rules, and decision frameworks for when to apply DDD
Critique dimensions, severity framework, verdict decision matrix, and review output format for documentation assessment reviews
Definition of Ready checklist criteria, antipattern detection patterns, UAT quality rules, and domain language enforcement for product owner review
Dispatches one unit of DELIVER work to a specialized agent for TDD execution. Runs a single roadmap.json step through the TDD cycle.
Fast-forwards through remaining waves end-to-end without stopping for review between waves.
Archives a completed feature to docs/evolution/, migrates lasting artifacts to permanent directories, and cleans up the temporary workspace. Use after all implementation steps pass and mutation testing completes.
Toyota 5 Whys methodology with multi-causal branching, evidence requirements, and validation techniques
Creates new specialized agents using the 5-phase workflow (ANALYZE > DESIGN > CREATE > VALIDATE > REFINE). Use when building a new AI agent or validating an existing agent specification.
TLA+ and PlusCal for specifying distributed system invariants. Decision heuristics for when formal verification adds value, key patterns, state explosion management, and alternatives comparison.
