If no skill in this repo matches, search the open ecosystem using the Skills CLI:
npx skills find [query]
Examples:
- User asks "make my React app faster" →
npx skills find react performance - User asks "help with PR reviews" →
npx skills find pr review - User asks "create a changelog" →
npx skills find changelog
Browse all skills at: https://skills.sh/
Step 3: Verify Quality Before Recommending
Do not recommend a skill based solely on search results. Always verify:
- Install count — Prefer skills with 1K+ installs. Be cautious under 100.
- Source reputation — Official sources (
vercel-labs,anthropics,supabase,mongodb) are more trustworthy than unknown authors. - GitHub stars — Skills from repos with <100 stars should be treated with skepticism.
- Security — Use
skill-security-auditto scan any skill from an untrusted source before installing.
Step 4: Install
# From this repo
npx skills add BuilderCed/agent-skills --skill [skill-name]
# From another repo
npx skills add [owner/repo] --skill [skill-name]
# Global install (user-level)
npx skills add [source] --skill [name] -g -y
# Check for updates
npx skills check
# Update all
npx skills update
Step 5: When No Skill Exists
If no relevant skill exists anywhere:
- Acknowledge that no existing skill was found
- Offer to help with the task directly using general capabilities
- Suggest creating a custom skill:
npx skills init my-skill-name
What This Skill Does NOT Do
- Does not install skills automatically without user confirmation
- Does not recommend skills it hasn't verified for quality
- Does not replace domain expertise (skills are guidance, not guarantees)
