SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When you need a capability your agent doesn't have, manually hunting for existing skills is slow and unreliable. This Skill discovers, evaluates, and installs relevant agent skills from the open skills ecosystem so you can extend agent capabilities on demand. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Skill Discovery: Searches the skills ecosystem via npx skills find and the skills.sh leaderboard to surface popular, well-maintained skills. - Quality Verification: Evaluates install counts, source reputation, and GitHub stars before recommending any skill. - Guided Installation: Presents options with install commands and can install skills globally using npx skills add. - Use Case: You ask "how do I make my React app faster?" and the Skill searches for React performance skills, verifies the top result has 185K installs from a trusted source, and offers to install it. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to find a skill for a task you need help with, such as "find a skill for PR reviews" or "is there a skill for writing changelogs?"

Frequently Asked Questions about find-skills

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I find a 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 category before searching.

How do I install an agent skill from GitHub?▼

Use npx skills add with the owner/repo@skill format, 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 three signals: install count (prefer 1K+, be cautious under 100), source reputation (official sources like vercel-labs or anthropics are more trustworthy), and GitHub stars on 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 using npx skills init followed by your skill name.

Can I search skills from a specific GitHub owner?▼

Yes, use the --owner flag with npx skills find to scope results to a specific GitHub owner, for example npx skills find testing --owner vercel-labs. This helps filter results to trusted publishers.
