What Are Agent Skills?

An open standard from Anthropic for extending AI agents. A skill is just a folder:

my-skill/
├── SKILL.md       # Instructions + metadata
├── scripts/       # Optional code
└── references/    # Optional docs

All major AI coding tools support this format.

Contributing

1. Fork this repo
2. Add your skill to /skills/<name>/
3. Ensure SKILL.md follows the spec
4. Update skills.json
5. Submit PR

We review all contributions for quality and spec compliance.
