A tool for finding, installing, updating, and removing third-party Agent Skills from skills.sh or Git repositories. Agent Skills are reusable instructions that add specific workflows to coding agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search the public skill directory, install a skill from a repository, or manage an existing installed skill.
Why use it?
It helps you discover existing skills instead of building a workflow from scratch. It also checks for overlapping skills and asks before changing skill files on disk.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

find-skills scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Find Skills

Discover and install third-party agent skills from the open Agent Skills ecosystem powered by skills.sh.

Overview

The Agent Skills format is an open standard for packaging procedural knowledge, workflows, and tools that AI agents load on demand. The npx skills CLI (maintained by Vercel Labs) serves as "npm for AI agents" -- enabling discovery and installation of community skills from any Git repository.

skills.sh is the public directory and leaderboard for the ecosystem, hosting thousands of skills across categories like frontend, backend, DevOps, and more.

Before installing a third-party skill, check ls skills/ in this repo (or run /find-skills again after browsing) -- cc-arsenal may already cover the same ground, and a hardcoded list here would just go stale.

Ask First, Never Mutate to "Show" Something

add, remove/rm, and update all touch the user's real filesystem (project .claude/skills/ or global ~/.claude/skills/) -- a wrong guess costs the user real state, not a free re-run. Two hard stops, both end the turn on a question rather than acting and reporting after:

  • Scope or target is ambiguous. If it isn't clear which skill/repo to install, or whether it belongs at project vs. global scope, end your response with the clarifying question. Don't run npx skills add first and confirm after, and don't install to a throwaway/local mock "just to show the flow" -- that still runs a real command against the user's real directories. Ask, stop, and install only in a later turn once the user answers.
  • Any removal, one skill or all of them. Removal is destructive and not undoable via the CLI. Run npx skills list (and -g if scope is unclear) to show what's actually installed, then end your response asking the user to confirm exactly what gets removed. Run remove/rm/--all only in a later turn, after the user replies with an explicit yes. The request is never the confirmation: "remove the foo skill, I don't use it anymore" names the action but does not green-light it -- if you catch yourself reasoning "the user already confirmed by naming it", that reasoning is exactly the failure this rule exists to stop.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
