A collection of reusable agent skills (SKILL.md files) that enhance AI agent workflows.
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| handoff | Create a summary document for another agent continue the work. |
| readme-writer | Provide/update a README.md file for a project. |
| squeeze | Find redundant or unnecessary code and refactor to make it efficient and readable. |
- Clone this repository.
- Copy the skill directories into your agent's skills folder (e.g.
~/.agents/skills/).
git clone https://github.com/your-user/skills
cp -r skills/skills/* ~/.agents/skills/Each skill directory contains a SKILL.md file with instructions the agent reads when triggered. Skills are invoked by matching their description to the task at hand.
- Ask for a project summary → triggers handoff
- Ask to document a project → triggers readme-writer
- Ask to clean up or refactor code → triggers squeeze
Every skill must use the same structure so the content is easy to scan and consistent across the collection.
- Frontmatter —
nameanddescription(the description is what triggers the skill). - Title — a
# <Name>heading. - Use when — one paragraph describing when the skill triggers, including alternative phrasings.
- Steps — a numbered
## Stepslist with the concrete actions. - Guidelines — a bulleted
## Guidelineslist with constraints and best practices.
Add a new skill as a directory under skills/ containing a SKILL.md following the pattern above.
