Agent skills are small, installable instructions that teach a coding agent to do one job well — review a pull request, drive a browser, design a screen. The list below ranks every skill we track by how many people have installed it, with the install command for each one and, where we have written it, a guide to setting it up.

Install counts, stars and audit results come from the public skills index and change daily. Hover or tap “How to install and use it” on any skill to see what it needs and what to run.

Questions people ask about agent skills

What is an agent skill?

A skill is a small, installable set of instructions that teaches a coding agent to do one job properly — review a pull request, drive a browser, design a screen, run a test-first workflow. It lives in your project rather than in the agent, so the same agent behaves differently depending on which skills the project has.

How do I install one?

Almost every skill in this index installs with a single command run from your project root, in the form of npx skills add followed by the repository and the skill name. The exact command for each one is shown on its row, and you can copy it directly. Most agents read their skill list once when they start, so restart the agent afterwards or it will not see the new skill.

Where do the install counts and audit results come from?

They are reported by the public skills index and change daily; the date they were last refreshed is shown at the top of this page. We republish the figures as facts with their source, and we do not adjust or weight them. An audit result is the index's own automated check of a skill, not a review by us.

Are these skills safe to run?

Treat a skill the way you would treat any dependency you are about to install: it runs with whatever access your agent has. Some drive a real browser, some write files into your repository, some spend money on hosted models, and some post publicly on your behalf. Every row links to the skill at its source so you can read what it does before you install it, and where we have written a guide we say plainly what a skill will touch.

Which skills here have been checked by a person?

The ones marked Reviewed. A Reviewed badge means someone here read the skill and wrote its setup guide by hand. Other skills may still show a guide, which is drafted automatically from the skill's own published description and its verified install command, and carries no badge. The install command is taken from the index in every case and is never rewritten.

How is this list ordered?

By install count, highest first, unless you change the sort. Nobody pays to appear here and nobody pays to rank higher. You can also sort by stars, by newest, by audit results, or alphabetically, and filter to the skills that have a setup guide.

Install counts and audit results are reported by the public skills index and change daily. A skill listed here has not been reviewed by us unless its entry says so — check the source before you run anything. Looking for something else?
