SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When a user explicitly wants to discover or install an external Agent Skill, there is no built-in way to know what exists in the open skills ecosystem or how to install it safely. This Skill provides a structured workflow for searching the skills.sh registry, vetting results, and installing approved packages. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Registry Search: Runs npx skills find [query] to locate skills by domain and task, with guidance on effective keyword strategies and common categories like testing, DevOps, and documentation. - Quality Verification: Requires checking source reputation, maintenance activity, requested permissions, and overlap with native capabilities before recommending any skill. - Approved Installation: Installs only after explicit user approval via npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y, preferring the client's native installer when available. - Use Case: A user asks for help with PR reviews. The Skill searches npx skills find pr review, verifies a maintained option, presents it with an install command and skills.sh link, and installs it only after the user approves. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to find a skill for a specific task, such as "find a skill for React performance optimization", and it will search the registry and present vetted options.

Frequently Asked Questions about find-skills

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find and install Agent Skills from skills.sh?▼

Run npx skills find [query] to search the registry by keyword, then review the results for source reputation and maintenance. After approving a skill, install it with npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y.

What is the npx skills CLI used for?▼

The Skills CLI is the package manager for the open agent skills ecosystem. Key commands include npx skills find to search, npx skills add to install, npx skills check for updates, and npx skills update to refresh installed skills.

When should I search for external skills instead of using built-in capabilities?▼

Search the registry only when the user explicitly asks to discover or install a third-party skill. If the current client has native skill discovery or an installed capability that already satisfies the request, use that first.

How do I verify a skill is safe before installing it?▼

Check the source and maintainer reputation, recent repository activity, the skill's scope, scripts, hooks, and requested permissions. Never recommend a skill based solely on search results, and confirm it does not duplicate an existing capability.

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

Acknowledge that no matching skill was found and offer to complete the task directly with general capabilities. For recurring tasks, suggest creating a custom skill with npx skills init.
