skillcn

A community-driven library of reusable, modular agent Skills for AI agents and automation workflows.

Designed for use with modern AI coding environments including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Trae, and open-source tools like OpenCode and Cline.

What are Skills?

Skills are collections of instructions, scripts, and resources that an AI Agent can load dynamically to improve performance on specialized tasks. They teach the AI Agent how to complete specific tasks in a repeatable, high-quality way, whether that’s creating distinctive UI components, building robust APIs, or following strict brand guidelines.

Each skill is self-contained within its own folder and includes a SKILL.md file that defines the instructions and metadata used by the AI Agent.

Why skillcn?

📦 Standardized: A consistent format for agent instructions that works across different AI tools.
🧩 Modular: Don't bloat your context. Install only the specific skills your project needs.
🤝 Community-Driven: Benefit from shared prompt engineering best practices without reinventing the wheel.

Install

Install a skill with your preferred package manager:

Using PNPM:

pnpx skillcn add [skill]

Using Bun:

bunx --bun skillcn add [skill]

Using NPM:

npx skillcn add [skill]

Usage Examples

Local Skills (Bundled)

Install a single skill:

pnpx skillcn add frontend-design

Install multiple skills at once:

pnpx skillcn add frontend-design astro-builder

List available skills:

pnpx skillcn list

Preview installation (dry run):

pnpx skillcn add frontend-design --dry-run

GitHub Skills (Remote)

Install a skill from a GitHub repository:

pnpx skillcn add https://github.com/user/repo

Preview GitHub installation (dry run):

pnpx skillcn add https://github.com/user/repo --dry-run

How It Works

When you install a skill:

skillcn copies the skill files to your project's .agents/skills directory
Each skill contains its implementation, documentation, and configuration
Your AI agent can now use that skill's capabilities
