SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When you ask an AI agent how to do a task, you may not know that a ready-made skill already exists for it. This Skill discovers, evaluates, and installs relevant agent skills from the open skills ecosystem so you can extend agent capabilities without building workflows from scratch. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Skill Discovery: Searches the skills ecosystem via npx skills find [query] and the skills.sh leaderboard ranked by install counts. - Quality Verification: Evaluates candidate skills by install count, source reputation, and GitHub stars before recommending them. - Guided Installation: Presents options with install commands and can install skills globally using npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y. - Use Case: You ask "how do I make my React app faster?" and the Skill searches for React performance skills, verifies a popular option from a trusted source, and installs it for you. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to find a skill for your task, for example: find a skill that helps with PR reviews.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find an agent skill for a specific task?▼

Run npx skills find followed by keywords describing your task, such as npx skills find react performance. You can also browse the skills.sh leaderboard to see the most-installed skills by domain before searching.

How do I install an agent skill from GitHub?▼

Use npx skills add with the owner/repo@skill identifier, for example npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills@react-best-practices. Add the -g flag for global user-level installation and -y to skip confirmation prompts.

How do I know if a skill is trustworthy before installing?▼

Check the install count first, preferring skills with over 1K installs and treating anything under 100 with caution. Also verify the source reputation, favoring official publishers, and check the GitHub star count of the source repository.

What should I do if no skill exists for my task?▼

If the search returns no relevant skills, the agent can handle the task directly with its general capabilities. For recurring tasks, you can create your own skill by running npx skills init with a name for your new skill.

How do I keep installed skills up to date?▼

Run npx skills check to see whether updates are available for your installed skills. Then run npx skills update to update all installed skills to their latest versions.
