Skills real projects publish on GitHub, most starred first. Each one says what it will make an agent do before you copy it.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/cold-start-interview/SKILL.md
About-you interview and materials intake — classes, bar jurisdiction, learning style (drill-me vs explain-to-me), past outlines, graded essays, old exams, MBE sets, syllabi, papers. Use on a fresh install, when the user says "set up" or "get started", or with --check-integrations to re-probe connectors.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/customize/SKILL.md
Guided customization of your law-student study profile — change one thing without re-running the whole cold-start interview. Adjust current classes, learning style, outline preferences, bar prep subjects, seed materials, or study session cadence. Use when the user says "change my [thing]", "add a class", "update my profile", "new semester", or "customize".
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/exam-forecast/SKILL.md
Analyze past exams from the same professor to surface patterns — subject weighting, recurring issue-spot traps, favored hypo types, policy-vs-doctrine mix — and forecast likely emphases for the upcoming exam. Use when the user says "what's on the exam", "analyze past exams", "predict the exam", or shares past exams.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/flashcards/SKILL.md
Generate or drill flashcards for black-letter memorization — Leitner-style buckets, per-subject markdown storage, drill mode with self-assessment. Use when the user says "drill flashcards", "make flashcards from", "quiz me on cards", or wants to memorize rules.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/irac-practice/SKILL.md
Grade an IRAC essay for structure, issue-spotting, rule accuracy, analysis depth, and organization. Does NOT rewrite the essay or show a model answer; tracks patterns across sessions. Use when the user says "grade my IRAC", "check my essay", or "I wrote this, give me feedback".
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/legal-writing/SKILL.md
Structural feedback on a legal writing draft (memo, brief, paper, exam essay) — organization, analysis depth, clarity, citation form. NEVER rewrites the draft. Use when the user says "feedback on my memo", "read my draft", or "critique my brief".
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/outline-builder/SKILL.md
Build or extend a course outline in your format, from class notes and casebook. Scaffolds — it does not write the outline for you. Use when the user says "outline [subject]", "add to my outline", "build an outline from", or points at class materials.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/session/SKILL.md
Run a focused N-question study session on a subject — MBE, essay, or flashcards. Tracks performance and updates the study plan. Use when the user says "run me 10 questions on [subject]", "do a session on [subject]", "let's do 5 cards on [subject]", or wants to drill a fixed number of questions and have the plan adapt.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/socratic-drill/SKILL.md
Socratic drilling — it asks, you answer, it pushes back. Does NOT give you the answer until you've earned it. Use when the user says "drill me on", "quiz me", "socratic", "test me on [subject]", or wants to study actively.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/law-student/skills/study-plan/SKILL.md
Build or update a long-term bar prep (or exam prep) study plan — phases, subjects weighted by weakness, daily session schedule, adaptive to session history in study-plan.yaml. Use when the user says "build a study plan", "plan my bar prep", "schedule my studying", or "how should I study for [X]".
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/auto-updater/SKILL.md
Check installed community skills for updates. Shows a diff and requires explicit approval before applying. Use when the user says "check for updates", "update my skills", "anything new for my installed skills", or when invoked from the registry-sync agent.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/cold-start-interview/SKILL.md
Practice-profile interview that recommends and installs a starter pack of community legal skills. This IS the cold start for the whole ecosystem — it asks what kind of lawyer you are and recommends what to install first. Use on fresh install, when the user says "get me started" or "what should I install", or to re-run the integration-availability check after adding or removing an MCP connector.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/customize/SKILL.md
Guided customization of your Legal Builder Hub profile — change one thing without re-running the whole cold-start interview. Adjust practice profile, installed starter pack, watched registries, update preferences, or QA strictness. Use when the user says "change my [thing]", "add a registry", "update my profile", "edit my config", or "customize".
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/disable/SKILL.md
Disable a community skill installed through the hub without removing its files. Use when the user wants to temporarily quiet a community skill ("disable [skill]"), stop its hooks from firing while keeping its config, or re-enable a previously disabled skill.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/registry-browser/SKILL.md
Search watched registries for community legal skills, showing matches with descriptions and offering to show the full SKILL.md before install. Use when the user says "browse", "search skills", "find a skill for", "what's out there for", or wants to add a new registry to the watchlist.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/related-skills-surfacer/SKILL.md
Suggest community skills based on recent activity in other plugins. Checks whether the community has built something relevant to a task and mentions it once, non-intrusively. Use when the user says "is there a community skill for this", "what else is out there", or asks for skill recommendations; also runs passively as part of other plugins' workflows.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/skill-installer/SKILL.md
Install a community skill from a watched registry. Reads the allowlist first, fetches, shows the RAW SKILL.md (not just a summary), runs structural trust checks, runs skills-qa, and only writes files after explicit user approval. Use when the user says "install [skill]", picks install from browse, or provides a direct skill URL.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/skill-manager/SKILL.md
Reference: detailed uninstall, disable, and re-enable workflows for community skills installed via the legal builder hub. Safe by default — refuses to touch first-party plugin skills, confirms before removing files, and logs every action. Loaded by the /legal-builder-hub:uninstall and /legal-builder-hub:disable skills.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/skills-qa/SKILL.md
Evaluate a skill against the Legal Skill Design Framework — thirteen design parameters (including trust-surface, freshness, schema validation, and conflict detection), three legal failure modes, and a three-band verdict (Ready / Some Concern / Material Concerns). Use when deciding whether to trust a community skill before installing it, before deploying a first-party skill to your team, or whenever the user asks "should I trust this?" or "is this skill well-designed?". Runs automatically as part of /legal-builder-hub:skill-installer.
AnthropicSkillanthropics/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/skills/uninstall/SKILL.md
Uninstall a community skill that was installed via the hub. Confirms before deleting files, refuses to touch first-party plugin skills, and logs every action. Use when the user wants to fully remove a community skill ("uninstall [skill]", "remove this skill") rather than just disable it.
A folder with a SKILL.md file: a name, a description of when to use it, and instructions. Claude loads a skill only when the task matches its description.
Copy the folder into your project's .claude/skills/ directory, or into your own skills folder to use it everywhere.
We read each file for commands that read secrets, delete things or pipe downloads into a shell, and say so before you copy it. No warning is not a promise that a file is safe.
Open a skill to see its discussion. Reports from people and their agents are coming.
