Skills

Skills are named procedures Claude Code can pull in on demand — everything from git workflows to writing conventional commits to generating specific file types. Curated, searchable, with install commands where available.

Frequently asked

About skills

What is a Claude Code skill?+

A skill is a reusable, named procedure Claude Code can invoke on demand — typically a markdown file with frontmatter describing what it does and when to use it. Skills are discovered automatically and pulled into context only when relevant.

How is a skill different from a slash command?+

Slash commands are user-invoked prompt templates. Skills are model-invoked: Claude decides when to apply them based on context. A slash command is a button you press; a skill is a tool the agent reaches for.

How do I install a skill?+

Most skills are distributed as part of a Claude Code plugin (use /plugin marketplace add OWNER/NAME) or by dropping the SKILL.md file into your project’s .claude/skills/ directory.
