A skill-discovery and installation helper for coding agents. It explains how to search the open agent-skills ecosystem and install, update, or browse reusable skills.

Finding skills for a requested task, installing skills from available sources, and updating installed skills.

It helps when you need a capability that may already exist as an installable skill, instead of building that workflow from scratch. It also clarifies the commands used to find and manage skills.

find-skills — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by mrDesign-ww

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add mrDesign-ww/vault-os --skill find-skills

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mrDesign-ww/vault-os

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00067	$0.01303
Opus 5	$0.00034	$0.00651
Sonnet 5	$0.00013	$0.00261

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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

83% identical to find-skills — 57 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Find Skills

This skill helps you discover and install skills from the open agent skills ecosystem.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user:

Asks "how do I do X" where X might be a common task with an existing skill
Says "find a skill for X" or "is there a skill for X"
Asks "can you do X" where X is a specialized capability
Expresses interest in extending agent capabilities
Wants to search for tools, templates, or workflows
Mentions they wish they had help with a specific domain (design, testing, deployment, etc.)

What is the Skills CLI?

The Skills CLI (npx skills) is the package manager for the open agent skills ecosystem. Skills are modular packages that extend agent capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools.

Key commands:

npx skills find [query] [--owner <owner>] - Search for skills interactively or by keyword, optionally scoped to a GitHub owner
npx skills add <package> - Install a skill from GitHub or other sources
npx skills update - Update all installed skills

Browse skills at: https://skills.sh/

How to Help Users Find Skills

Step 1: Understand What They Need

When a user asks for help with something, identify:

The domain (e.g., React, testing, design, deployment)
The specific task (e.g., writing tests, creating animations, reviewing PRs)
Whether this is a common enough task that a skill likely exists

Step 2: Check the Leaderboard First

Before running a CLI search, check the skills.sh leaderboard to see if a well-known skill already exists for the domain. The leaderboard ranks skills by total installs, surfacing the most popular and battle-tested options.

For example, top skills for web development include:

vercel-labs/agent-skills — React, Next.js, web design (100K+ installs each)
anthropics/skills — Frontend design, document processing (100K+ installs)

Step 3: Search for Skills

If the leaderboard doesn't cover the user's need, run the find command:

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.
