SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Users often need specialized capabilities that already exist as installable agent skills, but they do not know how to discover, evaluate, or install them. This Skill guides the agent to search the open skills ecosystem, verify quality signals, and install the right package. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Skill Discovery: Searches the open agent skills ecosystem using npx skills find with keyword queries and optional GitHub owner scoping. - Quality Verification: Checks install counts, source reputation, and GitHub stars before recommending any skill, preferring packages with 1K+ installs from trusted sources like vercel-labs or anthropics. - Guided Installation: Installs selected skills globally with npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y and points users to skills.sh for details. - Use Case: A user asks "is there a skill for PR reviews?" The agent checks the skills.sh leaderboard, runs npx skills find pr review, verifies the top result's install count and source, then presents the install command. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to find and install a skill for a specific task, such as "find a skill for React performance optimization."

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find and install an agent skill for a specific task?▼

Run npx skills find with a keyword query, such as npx skills find react performance, to search the ecosystem. Once you pick a result, install it globally with npx skills add owner/repo@skill -g -y.

What is the skills CLI and how does it work?▼

The skills CLI (npx skills) is the package manager for the open agent skills ecosystem. It supports find for searching, add for installing from GitHub or other sources, check for update detection, and update for upgrading installed skills.

How do I verify a skill is trustworthy before installing?▼

Check three signals: prefer skills with 1K+ installs, favor official sources like vercel-labs, anthropics, or microsoft, and review the source repository's GitHub stars. Treat skills from repos with under 100 stars with skepticism.

What should I do when no skill exists for my task?▼

If npx skills find returns no relevant matches, proceed with the task using general capabilities instead. For recurring needs, you can scaffold your own skill with npx skills init my-skill-name.

When should I not use the find-skills skill?▼

Do not trigger it for general "how do I" questions, which should be answered directly. Use it only when the user explicitly asks to find, search for, browse, or install a skill or plugin.
