WHAT This Skill Does

Helps users find and install modular skill packages that extend agent capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools.

WHEN To Use

  • User asks "how do I do X" where X might have an existing skill
  • User says "find a skill for X" or "is there a skill for X"
  • User asks "can you do X" where X is a specialized capability
  • User wants to extend agent capabilities
  • User mentions wishing they had help with a specific domain

KEYWORDS: find skill, search skill, install skill, add skill, npx skills, skills.sh

The Workflow

1. Identify What They Need

Map their request to a search query:

  • Domain: React, testing, design, deployment, etc.
  • Task: writing tests, creating animations, reviewing PRs, etc.

2. Search for Skills

npx skills find [query]

Examples:

User RequestSearch Query
"How do I make my React app faster?"
npx skills find react performance
"Can you help with PR reviews?"
npx skills find pr review
"I need to create a changelog"
npx skills find changelog

3. Present Results

When results are found:

I found a skill that might help! The "[skill-name]" skill provides [brief description].

To install it:
npx skills add [owner/repo@skill]

Learn more: https://skills.sh/[owner]/[repo]/[skill]

4. Install (If Requested)

npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y
  • -g
    = install globally (user-level)
  • -y
    = skip confirmation prompts

Common Skill Categories

CategoryExample Queries
Web Developmentreact, nextjs, typescript, tailwind
Testingtesting, jest, playwright, e2e
DevOpsdeploy, docker, kubernetes, ci-cd
Documentationdocs, readme, changelog, api-docs
Code Qualityreview, lint, refactor, best-practices
Designui, ux, design-system, accessibility

When No Skills Found

I searched for skills related to "[query]" but didn't find any matches.

I can still help with this task directly. Would you like me to proceed?

If this is something you do often, you could create your own skill:
npx skills init my-skill-name

NEVER

  • Assume a skill exists without searching first
  • Install skills without user confirmation
  • Recommend creating a skill when an existing one would work
  • Search with vague single-word queries (be specific: "react testing" not "testing")
