Skill0 starsChanged 23 days agoMITView on GitHub
Stop and consult this skill whenever your response would include specific facts about Anthropic's products. Covers: Claude Code (how to install, Node.js requirements, platform/OS support, MCP server integration, configuration), Claude API (function calling/tool use, batch processing, SDK usage, rate limits, pricing, models, streaming), and Claude.ai (Pro vs Team vs Enterprise plans, feature limits). Trigger this even for coding tasks that use the Anthropic SDK, content creation mentioning Claude capabilities or pricing, or LLM provider comparisons. Any time you would otherwise rely on memory for Anthropic product details, verify here instead — your training data may be outdated or wrong.

SeifBenayedSkillfile-reading
Use this skill when a file has been uploaded but its content is NOT in your context — only its path at /mnt/user-data/uploads/ is listed in an uploaded_files block. This skill is a router: it tells you which tool to use for each file type (pdf, docx, xlsx, csv, json, images, archives, ebooks) so you read the right amount the right way instead of blindly running cat on a binary. Triggers: any mention of /mnt/user-data/uploads/, an uploaded_files section, a file_path tag, or a user asking about an uploaded file you have not yet read. Do NOT use this skill if the file content is already visible in your context inside a documents block — you already have it.

SeifBenayedSkillpdf-reading
Use this skill when you need to read, inspect, or extract content from PDF files — especially when file content is NOT in your context and you need to read it from disk. Covers content inventory, text extraction, page rasterization for visual inspection, embedded image/attachment/table/form-field extraction, and choosing the right reading strategy for different document types (text-heavy, scanned, slide-decks, forms, data-heavy). Do NOT use this skill for PDF creation, form filling, merging, splitting, watermarking, or encryption — use the pdf skill instead.

JimLiuSkillesmfold2
Biohub ESMFold2 / ESMFold2-Fast all-atom co-folding (Candido et al. 2026, github.com/Biohub/esm). Single-sequence and MSA modes; protein, DNA, RNA, ligand (CCD/SMILES), modified residues. FoldBench Ab-Ag 50-55%, PPI 70-77% DockQ-pass. Also covers the ESMC-{300M,600M,6B} protein language models from the same release: masked-LM logits, hidden states, mutation scoring, contact prediction, and the SAE interpretability head. MIT-licensed weights on HuggingFace org `biohub`. Use this skill when: (1) Predicting complex structures with single-sequence input, (2) Validating designed binders with ESMFold2-Fast, (3) Running ESMFold2 with MSA input, (4) Getting ESMC embeddings or per-residue mutation scores, (5) Choosing kernel backend and sampling-step settings for paper-faithful throughput.

JimLiuSkillfair-esm2
Embed proteins with Meta AI's ESM-2 (`fair-esm` package). Use this skill when: (1) Extracting per-residue or per-sequence embeddings for downstream ML, (2) Masked-LM likelihood / mutation effect scoring, (3) Contact prediction from a sequence.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 3 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
3
Common
Most of the 9 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Common: line 11
Accuracy over guessing: - Check official docs when uncertain
- Common: line 13
Source everything: - Always include official documentation URLs
- Common: line 14
Right resource first: - Use the correct docs for each product (see routing below)
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 9 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Anthropic Product Knowledge
Core Principles
- Accuracy over guessing - Check official docs when uncertain
- Distinguish products - Claude.ai, Claude Code, and Claude API are separate products
- Source everything - Always include official documentation URLs
- Right resource first - Use the correct docs for each product (see routing below)
Question Routing
Claude API or Claude Code questions?
→ Check the docs maps first, then navigate to specific pages:
- Claude API & General: https://platform.claude.com/llms.txt
- Claude Code: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/claude_code_docs_map.md
Claude.ai questions?
→ Browse the support page:
- Claude.ai Help Center: https://support.claude.com/en/
Response Workflow
- Identify the product - API, Claude Code, or Claude.ai?
- Use the right resource - Docs maps for API/Code, support page for Claude.ai
- Verify details - Navigate to specific documentation pages
- Provide answer - Include source link and specify which product
- If uncertain - Direct user to relevant docs: "For the most current information, see [URL]"

URL note (verified 2026-07-23): the old
docs.claude.com/...paths still 301 to these, but WebFetch does not follow cross-host redirects — always use the URLs above directly.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
