Detect GitHub Skill Repository
The user has shared a GitHub URL. Recognize it and offer to browse its skills.
What to Do
-
Identify the GitHub URL from the user's message.
-
Respond naturally — acknowledge the link and explain you can browse
available skills.
-
Offer to browse:
"I can check this repo for skills and show you what's available.
Want me to take a look?"
-
When the user confirms, run /skills-load <url>. This shows a numbered
catalog — the user picks which skills to install as a plugin.
-
If the URL doesn't look like a skills repo, still offer:
"This might not contain Claude skills — want me to check anyway?"
Key Points
- Be conversational, not robotic
- The catalog-first approach means the user picks what they need — no bulk loading
- Selected skills get packaged as a
.plugin file and presented with a
"Save plugin" button for one-click installation into the / menu
- Skills are also injected into the conversation for immediate use
