Find Skills

This skill helps you discover 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"
  • Wants to search for tools, templates, or workflows
  • Expresses interest in extending agent capabilities
  • Mentions they wish they had help with a specific domain (design, testing, deployment, etc.)

Step 1: Search for Skills

Use npx -y skills find with a relevant keyword to search the ecosystem:

npx -y skills find [query]

Examples:

  • User asks "help me with React performance" → npx -y skills find react performance
  • User asks "is there a skill for PR reviews?" → npx -y skills find pr review
  • User asks "I need to create a changelog" → npx -y skills find changelog

The search results will show installable skills like:

vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices
└ https://skills.sh/vercel-labs/agent-skills/vercel-react-best-practices

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

Step 2: Present Options

When you find relevant skills, present them to the user with:

  1. The skill name and what it does
  2. A link to learn more on skills.sh

Ask the user which skill(s) they want to install.

Step 3: Install

Use the built-in skill_manager tool to install:

skill_manager(action="install", source="owner/repo@skill-name")
