Skills real projects publish on GitHub, most starred first. Each one says what it will make an agent do before you copy it.
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.

GitHubSkillgithub/lever/skills/automate-it/SKILL.md
Turns a task you keep doing by hand into a paused GitHub Copilot Automation with an event trigger, a least-privilege tool list, a PARAMETERS + CONTRACT prompt, a quiet exit and a propose-only improver sibling. It creates automations, so it runs only on `/lever automate` or an explicit ask ("automate this", "run this on every PR/issue", "do this nightly", "make this run in the cloud"). When the same task has been done 3 or more times by hand, or a local self-wake has fired 5 or more times for the same job, suggest it in one line instead of running 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.
