Search and discover Claude Code skills and MCP servers from marketplaces, GitHub repositories, and registries. Use when (1) user asks to find skills for a specific task, (2) looking for MCP servers to connect external tools, (3) user mentions "find skill", "search MCP", "discover tools", or "what skills exist for X", (4) before creating a custom skill to check if one already exists.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. About 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈5
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 8
Search and discover existing Claude Code skills and MCP servers before building custom solutions.
- Very specific: line 19
Check: glama.ai/mcp/servers, mcpmarket.com
- Distinctive: line 72
Check last update date (prefer recent)
- Distinctive: line 74
Check if has scripts/references
- Distinctive: line 118
Check compatibility (stdio vs HTTP)
- Distinctive: line 161
Search before build: - Always check existing resources first
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

| SkillsMP | skillsmp.com | 71000+ skills, long-tail search |
| SkillHub.club | skillhub.club | AI-evaluated, quality filter |
| Claude Skills Hub | claudeskills.info | UI-friendly browsing |
Search patterns:
# On SkillsMP
[domain] skill → "marketing skill", "database skill"
[framework] claude → "react claude", "fastapi claude"
[task] automation → "deployment automation"Step 3: Search GitHub
Curated lists:

Best Practices
- Search before build - Always check existing resources first
- Prefer maintained - Choose skills with recent updates
- Check quality - Review SKILL.md structure and content
- Consider combining - Multiple simple skills > one complex custom
- Verify security - Review MCP permissions and token scopes

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.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
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.
