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.

Skill Security Auditor
by ComeOnOliver

Security auditing for code, configs, and infrastructure. Use when the user wants to audit or improve security: scan for vulnerabilities (SQL injection, XSS, command injection, path traversal), detect hardcoded secrets and credentials, review auth and authorization, check dependencies for known CVEs, audit config files for insecure defaults, or generate security reports. Trigger on \"security audit\", \"vulnerability scan\", \"code review for security\", \"find secrets\", \"check for vulnerabilities\", \"OWASP\", \"CVE\", or questions about code security.

Electric New Feature
by ComeOnOliver

> End-to-end guide for adding a new synced feature with Electric and TanStack FULL, define shape, create proxy route, set up TanStack DB collection with electricCollectionOptions, implement optimistic mutations with txid handshake (pg_current_xact_id, awaitTxId), and build live queries with useLiveQuery.

1k tokens
Electric Proxy Auth

Covers ELECTRIC_PROTOCOL_QUERY_PARAMS forwarding, server-side shape definition (table, where, params), content-encoding/content-length header cleanup, CORS configuration for electric-offset/electric-handle/ electric-schema/electric-cursor headers, auth token injection, ELECTRIC_SECRET/SOURCE_SECRET server-side only, tenant isolation via WHERE positional params, onError 401 token refresh, and subset security (AND semantics). Load when creating proxy routes, adding auth, or configuring CORS for Electric.

2k tokens
Electric Schema Shapes
by ComeOnOliver

> Design Postgres schema and Electric shape definitions together for a new feature. Covers single-table shape constraint, cross-table joins using multiple shapes, WHERE clause design for tenant isolation, column selection for bandwidth optimization, replica mode choice (default vs full for old_value), enum casting in WHERE clauses, and txid handshake setup with pg_current_xact_id() for optimistic writes. Load when designing database tables for use with Electric shapes.

1k tokens
Electric Shapes
by ComeOnOliver

> Configure ShapeStream and Shape to sync a Postgres table to the client. Covers ShapeStreamOptions (url, table, where, columns, replica, offset, handle), custom type parsers (timestamptz, jsonb, int8), column mappers (snakeCamelMapper, createColumnMapper), onError retry semantics, backoff options, log modes (full, changes_only), requestSnapshot, fetchSnapshot, subscribe/unsubscribe, and Shape materialized view. Load when setting up sync, configuring shapes, parsing types, or handling sync errors.

2k tokens
Electric Yjs
by ComeOnOliver

> Set up ElectricProvider for real-time collaborative editing with Yjs via Electric shapes. Covers ElectricProvider configuration, document updates shape with BYTEA parser (parseToDecoder), awareness shape at offset='now', LocalStorageResumeStateProvider for reconnection with stableStateVector diff, debounceMs for batching writes, sendUrl PUT endpoint, required Postgres schema (ydoc_update and ydoc_awareness tables), CORS header exposure, and sendErrorRetryHandler. Load when implementing collaborative editing with Yjs and Electric.

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.
