skills.sh
Open skill directory for AI agents (91,000+ skills). Search by keyword.
When to use
Use this skill when the user asks any of:
- "find a skill on skills.sh"
- "search skills.sh"
- "install a skill from skills.sh"
- "what skills are on skills.sh?"
Search
npx --yes skills find react
Install
Step 1: Install the skill globally:
npx --yes skills add <owner/repo@skill-name> -g -y --copy
Step 2: Move to Ghost workspace. The CLI installs to $HOME/.agents/skills/ or $HOME/.claude/skills/ depending on the detected agent. Check which one has the skill, then move:
mv $HOME/.agents/skills/<skill-name> $HOME/.ghost/workspace/skills/ 2>/dev/null || mv $HOME/.claude/skills/<skill-name> $HOME/.ghost/workspace/skills/
Replace <owner/repo@skill-name> with the source from search results. Replace <skill-name> with the installed directory name.
List installed (skills.sh registry)
npx --yes skills list -g
Update
npx --yes skills update
Notes
- Requires Node.js (
npx comes with it).
- No API key needed for search and install.
- Always use
-g --copy flags to install globally with real files (not symlinks).
- The CLI may install to
$HOME/.agents/skills/ or $HOME/.claude/skills/ — always check both and move to $HOME/.ghost/workspace/skills/.
