Find Skills
Discover and install skills from the open agent-skills ecosystem.
When to use
User asks "how do I do X" / "find a skill for X" / "can you do X", wants to search tools or workflows, or wishes for help in a domain (design, testing, deployment…).
Skills CLI (npx skills)
npx skills find [query] — searchnpx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y — install (-g global, -y no prompt)npx skills check / update — updates- Browse: https://skills.sh/
How to help
- Identify domain + specific task; judge if a skill likely exists.
- Check the leaderboard (https://skills.sh/) first — ranked by installs. Known good:
vercel-labs/agent-skills, anthropics/skills.
- Search if needed:
npx skills find hugo seo.
- Verify before recommending: install count (prefer 1K+, wary <100), source reputation (official > unknown), GitHub stars.
- Present: name + what it does, install count/source, install command, skills.sh link.
- Offer to install if they want.
Tips & fallback
Use specific keywords ("hugo seo" > "seo"); try synonyms (deploy/deployment/ci-cd). If nothing found: say so, offer to do the task directly, suggest npx skills init for a custom skill.
