skill-finder

Search and install skills from multiple sources.

Triggers

  • "find skill"
  • "search skill"
  • "install skill"

Workflow

  1. Search — try sources in priority order
  2. Review — present top results to user
  3. Install — fetch SKILL.md → write to .claude/skills/{name}/SKILL.md

Search Sources

bash
npx skills search "SEARCH_TERM"

Install directly:

bash
npx skills add SKILL_NAME --dir .claude/skills -y
bash
gh search code "SEARCH_TERM" --filename SKILL.md --language markdown -L 10

Fetch raw SKILL.md:

bash
gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/contents/skills/SKILL_NAME/SKILL.md -q '.content' | base64 -d

3. Anthropic Official Skills

bash
gh api repos/anthropics/skills/contents/skills -q '.[].name'

Fetch specific skill:

bash
gh api repos/anthropics/skills/contents/skills/SKILL_NAME/SKILL.md -q '.content' | base64 -d

Install

After user picks a skill:

  1. Prefer npx skills add SKILL_NAME --dir .claude/skills -y
  2. Otherwise: fetch SKILL.md + references/ → write to .claude/skills/{name}/

Rules

  • Install to .claude/skills/ (project root), NOT ~/.claude/skills/
  • Always show skill name and description before installing
  • Ask user before installing — never auto-install without confirmation
  • Prefer Vercel Skills CLI first (best UX), then GitHub
  • Always use -y flag with npx skills add to skip interactive prompts
