🛠️ Claude Skills Library

A community-curated, auto-updating directory of Claude Skills — reusable SKILL.md prompt modules that make Claude smarter at specific tasks.

👉 Live site: https://abeezith.github.io/claude-skills/

What is a Claude Skill?

A Claude Skill is a structured prompt module — a SKILL.md file — that tells Claude how to perform a specific task with precision and consistency. When Claude detects a matching intent in your message, it loads the skill and follows its instructions.

Example: When you say "Create a Word document summarizing this report", Claude loads the docx skill and follows its detailed instructions for generating high-quality .docx files.

How to Use a Skill

1. Browse the library at the live site above
2. Find a skill that matches your task
3. Click "Copy Trigger" to copy the example prompt
4. Paste it into Claude — and Claude will use the skill automatically if it's installed in your environment

Note: Skills only activate when the SKILL.md file is accessible to your Claude instance (e.g. via a system prompt, operator config, or tool mount). Check with your Claude deployment for how skills are loaded.

How to Submit Your Own Skill

1. Create a SKILL.md file using the format below
2. Push it to a public GitHub repo
3. Open an Issue with a link to your repo

Your skill will be picked up automatically during the next daily sync.

How the Daily Sync Works

Every day at 2am UTC, a GitHub Actions workflow runs automatically:

GitHub Actions (cron: 0 2 * * *)
       ↓
scripts/sync_skills.py runs
       ↓
Searches GitHub for:
  - filename:SKILL.md
  - filename:SKILL.md "Claude Skill"
  - topic:claude-skills
  - topic:claude-skill
  - "claude skills" in repo names/descriptions
       ↓
Parses SKILL.md front matter from each result
       ↓
Merges with existing curated skills (curated skills are never removed)
       ↓
Writes updated skills.json
       ↓
Commits skills.json back to this repo
       ↓
GitHub Pages serves the updated site

You can also trigger a sync manually from the Actions tab in GitHub.

Run the Sync Locally

# Install dependencies
pip install requests PyGithub python-dateutil

# Run with your GitHub token (higher rate limits)
GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here python scripts/sync_skills.py

The script will update skills.json in place.
