dasheng-daily-outline
by leecyno1Use only when replaying a historical outline-only workflow; the current mainline no longer exposes outline as a standalone stage and routes directly from brief to draft under dasheng-media-sop.
dasheng-sop-orchestrator
by leecyno1Use when running, resuming, or auditing the full Dasheng 8-stage media workflow with strict stage contracts and delivery outputs.
dasheng-daily-final
by leecyno1Use only when replaying or debugging the legacy Dasheng finalization step; the standard mainline now splits this logic across rewrite, material, publish, and postmortem under dasheng-media-sop.
dasheng-stage-publish-video
by leecyno1Use when entering publish stage and needing the mandatory pre-publish video supplement, including interactive chart videos and motion narrative videos with style template selection.
dasheng-daily-intake
by leecyno1Use when running the canonical Dasheng intake stage for the current day and producing real-title, real-link source radar outputs for Brief handoff.
dasheng-hotspot-radar
by leecyno1Use when an agent needs a standalone no-login hotspot/news radar for Dasheng workflows, especially public macro/policy/geopolitics/market trend capture without running the full intake stage.

agentmail
by leecyno1Give AI agents their own email inboxes using the AgentMail API. Use when building email agents, sending/receiving emails programmatically, managing inboxes, handling attachments, organizing with labels, creating drafts for human approval, or setting up real-time notifications via webhooks/websockets. Supports multi-tenant isolation with pods.
heygen
by leecyno1[DEPRECATED — uses outdated v1/v2 endpoints] Use `create-video` for prompt-based video generation (v3 Video Agent) or `avatar-video` for precise avatar/scene control (v3 API). This legacy skill combines both workflows with deprecated endpoints.
elevenlabs-music
by leecyno1Generate AI music and songs with Diffrythm, Tencent Song Generation via inference.sh CLI. Models: Diffrythm (fast song generation), Tencent Song Generation (full songs with vocals). Capabilities: text-to-music, song generation, instrumental, lyrics to song, soundtrack creation. Use for: background music, social media content, game soundtracks, podcasts, royalty-free music. Triggers: music generation, ai music, generate song, ai composer, text to music, song generator, create music with ai, suno alternative, udio alternative, ai song, ai soundtrack, generate soundtrack, ai jingle, music ai, beat generator

Explore the agent skills ecosystem by occupation and creator
SkillMD is not just a keyword search box. It is an open map that organizes public skills by occupation, creator, and repository, helping you see which workflows, judgment criteria, and domain habits people are writing for AI agents.
Then follow creators and GitHub repositories back to the source: compare the skills a team maintains, whether the repo is active, and how the README frames the work before you open, install, or reuse anything.
Use it three ways: learn an unfamiliar field by occupation, study how creators organize skills, then use source context to decide what is worth opening or reusing.
01 Map a field
Browse 23 occupation groups and 867 SOC roles to learn what skills exist in adjacent domains and how they break down real work.
02 Follow creators
Use creator and repository pages to inspect maintained skill collections, recent updates, and source context before trusting a result.
03 Search with sources
Search 1.7M+ collected skills, then use occupation tags, creators, and GitHub source context to decide what is worth opening.
Start with the occupation map, then follow creators and repositories back to real code. SkillMD helps explain why a skill is worth opening, not only what it is named.
Standardizing Agent Capabilities with SKILL.md and Model Context Protocol (MCP)
In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, LLM agents (Large Language Model agents) have transitioned from simple text predictors to autonomous problem solvers. To orchestrate complex, multi-step agentic workflows, developers require a standardized format to specify agent capabilities, prompt instructions, system rules, and database bindings. This is where SKILL.md and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) have emerged as standard developer paradigms. SkillMD serves as the central directory for indexing, exploring, and sharing these critical agent configurations.
Our open-source registry currently tracks over 1.7 million collected SKILL.md configurations and system prompts. By compiling agent configurations from active developers on GitHub, we bridge the gap between prompt engineering research and production execution. Whether you are building agents with Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI's GPT-4, Google's Gemini, or local models using Ollama and LlamaIndex, standardized skill definitions ensure your agents behave predictably across different runtime environments.
What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open-source standard designed to connect LLMs to data sources, developer tools, and external environments. MCP establishes a bidirectional communication channel between client applications (like Cursor, Claude Desktop, or custom agent systems) and servers hosting data or capabilities. Standardizing instructions via SKILL.md enables LLMs to query databases, read local files, execute terminal commands, and integrate third-party APIs. SkillMD allows you to find ready-to-run MCP servers and prompt instructions for various occupations and technical tasks.
The Structure of a Professional SKILL.md File
A valid SKILL.md configuration is designed to be easily read by humans and parsed by LLMs. It contains precise system instructions, trigger conditions, required parameters, and execution examples. Below is the typical architectural blueprint of a professional agent skill:
- Metadata & Core Scope: Declares the name of the skill, author details, target models, and a description of the capability.
- Triggers & Intent Detection: Details semantic triggers that help the agent decide when to invoke this skill.
- System Prompts: Explicit system-level instructions that direct the agent's behavior, personality, safety guardrails, and formatting preferences.
- Capabilities & Tools: Lists the files, databases, or APIs the agent must access to complete the tasks.
- Few-Shot Examples: Demonstrates real inputs and outputs, helping the model generalize behavior through in-context learning.
Optimizing Agent Workflows for Modern LLMs
Writing effective agent skills requires deep knowledge of prompt engineering. With the release of advanced reasoning models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet, ChatGPT o1, and DeepSeek-V3, prompt templates must focus on structured thinking. Developers are encouraged to use XML tags (e.g., <thought>, <context>, and <rules>) to isolate execution boundaries. Standardized prompts prevent agents from suffering from context drift, ensuring that long-running tasks remain aligned with the initial system parameters.
Exploring by SOC Occupations and Creator Profiles
What makes SkillMD unique is its taxonomy. Instead of simple text search, we parse and organize files according to the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system. This means you can discover skills written for Computer and Mathematical roles, Business and Financial operations, Legal, Design, and and Educational Instruction fields. By tracking creator profiles, developers can study how different teams organize their custom instructions, compare version updates, and fork public configs for specialized enterprise use cases.
SkillMD operates as a high-performance index running on a fast Go backend and a highly responsive Astro SSR frontend. All search queries execute in milliseconds, featuring smart debouncing to prevent multiple API requests while keeping user data secure. Join our community of developers to standardize your AI agent instructions and optimize your LLM prompting workflows today.
