Skills

Teach your AI a method once

A skill is a saved set of instructions your AI follows for one kind of job. Install it once, and your AI knows the method from then on. It uses it when it fits, or when you ask for it by name.

Each skill is just a folder with a plain text file inside, called SKILL.md. There’s no program in it. You can open the file and read exactly what it tells your AI to do, and that’s a good habit with anything you install.

Before you start

For when you have an idea or a plan and want to find the holes while they are still cheap to fix.

Checking your work

For after your AI has made something, or after you have given it a pile of notes.

QCChecks something your AI just made: tries it where possible, re-reads it with fresh eyes, and ticks it off against what you asked for.Reviewed on 30 Sep 2026ListenMakes sure every point in a long message of feedback gets handled: numbers them, works through them in order, ends with a checklist.Reviewed on 30 Sep 2026Website SEO + GEOChecks how findable your web page is on search engines (SEO) and in AI answer tools (GEO), with a score and a plain-words fix list.Reviewed on 30 Sep 2026

Finding out what’s true

For when something sounds right and you want to know how sure you can be.

Every skill here was checked by three independent reviewers and then run once in a fresh Claude Code install, before it went on this page.
