New Here?

What are skills? Skills are markdown files that teach AI assistants how to do specific tasks perfectly. Instead of explaining what you want every time, install a skill and get consistent, high-quality results.

Example: Instead of "create a landing page with Next.js, use Tailwind, make it responsive..." just install the nextjs-landing-page skill and say "create a landing page".


Popular Skills

Skill What it does
nextjs-landing-page Generate modern landing pages with Next.js 14 + Tailwind
readme-generator Create professional READMEs in seconds
code-review Structured code review with security checklist
react-component Create React components with TypeScript + tests
brainstorming Design thinking before implementation
clean-code Pragmatic coding standards

Compatibility

These skills work with any AI coding assistant that supports SKILL.md files:

Tool Install Path How to Use
Claude Code ~/.claude/skills/ Auto-triggered by context
Cursor .cursor/skills/ Reference @skill-name in chat
Gemini CLI .gemini/skills/ Reference in prompt
Other agents Check tool docs Follow tool's skill format

Quick Start

Claude Code

# Install a single skill
curl -o ~/.claude/skills/nextjs-landing-page.md \
  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GetSkill-Agent/getskill-skills/main/skills/nextjs-landing-page/SKILL.md

# Install all skills
git clone https://github.com/GetSkill-Agent/getskill-skills.git
cp getskill-skills/skills/*/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/

Cursor

# Install to your project
git clone https://github.com/GetSkill-Agent/getskill-skills.git
mkdir -p .cursor/skills
cp getskill-skills/skills/*/SKILL.md .cursor/skills/

Done! Now use them:

"create a landing page"
"review this code"
"generate a readme"

  • Complete - Includes success criteria and common pitfalls

FAQ

What is SKILL.md?

SKILL.md is a markdown file that teaches AI coding agents (like Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) how to complete specific tasks. It's like a recipe: the agent reads the instructions and follows them step-by-step.

Where do I put SKILL.md files?

For Claude Code: ~/.claude/skills/skill-name/SKILL.md (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project)

For Cursor: .cursor/skills/skill-name/SKILL.md

How is SKILL.md different from CLAUDE.md?

  • CLAUDE.md = Project-wide context and rules (always active)
  • SKILL.md = Task-specific instructions (triggered on-demand)

Think of CLAUDE.md as "background knowledge" and SKILL.md as "recipes to follow".

What is skill.yaml?

An optional metadata file that accompanies SKILL.md:

id: my-skill-name
description: What this skill does
version: 1.0.0
tags: [frontend, react]

Which AI agents support SKILL.md?

Any agent that reads markdown instructions:

  • Claude Code (Anthropic)
  • Cursor
  • Windsurf (Codeium)
  • Cline
  • Aider
  • Continue

How do I create my own skill?

  1. Create a folder: skills/my-skill-name/
  2. Add SKILL.md with: Trigger Conditions, Steps, Success Criteria
  3. Add skill.yaml with metadata
  4. Test it in your project
  5. Share via PR or skill-share

Can I use skills offline?

Yes! Once downloaded, skills work without internet (the AI agent may still need connectivity).
