--- name: find-skills description: Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill that can...", or express interest in extending capabilities. This skill should be used when the user is looking for functionality that might exist as an installable skill. --- # 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]` - Search for skills interactively or by keyword - `npx skills add <package>` - Install a skill from GitHub or other sources - `npx skills check` - Check for skill updates - `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: 1. The domain (e.g., React, testing, design, deployment) 2. The specific task (e.g., writing tests, creating animations, reviewing PRs) 3. Whether this is a common enough task that a skill likely exists ### Step 2: Search for Skills Run the find command with a relevant query: ```bash npx skills find [query] ``` For example: - User asks "how do I make my React app faster?" → `npx skills find react performance` - User asks "can you help me with PR reviews?" → `npx skills find pr review` - User asks "I need to create a changelog" → `npx skills find changelog` The command will return results like: ``` Install with npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices └ https://skills.sh/vercel-labs/agent-skills/vercel-react-best-practices ``` ### Step 3: Present Options to the User When you find relevant skills, present them to the user with: 1. The skill name and what it does 2. The install command they can run 3. A link to learn more at skills.sh Example response: ``` I found a skill that might help! The "vercel-react-best-practices" skill provides React and Next.js performance optimization guidelines from Vercel Engineering. To install it: npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices Learn more: https://skills.sh/vercel-labs/agent-skills/vercel-react-best-practices ``` ### Step 4: Offer to Install If the user wants to proceed, you can install the skill for them: ```bash npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y ``` The `-g` flag installs globally (user-level) and `-y` skips confirmation prompts. ## Common Skill Categories When searching, consider these common categories: | Category | Example Queries | | --------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | Web Development | react, nextjs, typescript, css, tailwind | | Testing | testing, jest, playwright, e2e | | DevOps | deploy, docker, kubernetes, ci-cd | | Documentation | docs, readme, changelog, api-docs | | Code Quality | review, lint, refactor, best-practices | | Design | ui, ux, design-system, accessibility | | Productivity | workflow, automation, git | ## Tips for Effective Searches 1. **Use specific keywords**: "react testing" is better than just "testing" 2. **Try alternative terms**: If "deploy" doesn't work, try "deployment" or "ci-cd" 3. **Check popular sources**: Many skills come from `vercel-labs/agent-skills` or [REDACTED_SECRET] ## When No Skills Are Found If no relevant skills exist: 1. Acknowledge that no existing skill was found 2. Offer to help with the task directly using your general capabilities 3. Suggest the user could create their own skill with `npx skills init` Example: ``` I searched for skills related to "xyz" but didn't find any matches. I can still help you with this task directly! Would you like me to proceed? If this is something you do often, you could create your own skill: npx skills init my-xyz-skill ```
