find-skills

find-skills is the meta-skill: a skill that helps you find, evaluate, and install other skills. It is the most-installed skill on skills.sh at roughly 1.8M–2.1M installs and is published by Vercel Labs as part of the npx skills CLI distribution. Install it first, use it to discover the rest of the catalog here.

When to use

• You're new to the skills ecosystem and want a guided entry point
• You want to add search/discovery commands to your agent (/find-skills <query>)
• You're curating a private set of vetted skills and want a known-good starting install

When not to use

• You're already comfortable browsing agentskills.io and skills.sh directly — find-skills is convenience, not a gate
• You have a strict allowlist and don't want a network-discovering tool in the agent's instruction set

How it works

find-skills ships as a SKILL.md with a small set of progressive-disclosure references. At install time, the agent's skill catalog gets the find-skills entry with its name and description (~100 tokens). When you call it, the agent loads the full instructions and can drive the npx skills CLI to search, install, and report on skills without you leaving the chat.

Full SKILL.md

Full source at the canonical repo: github.com/vercel-labs/skills. Embedded copy omitted at launch — the repo is MIT-licensed but the canonical SKILL.md is updated frequently; the link above always tracks the latest vetted copy.

Verify it yourself

Quick static check — clone to a scratch directory and grep for: curl | sh, base64 -d, process.env, requests.post, ignore previous, and any line in the SKILL.md that asks the agent to hide output from you. Any hit → re-vet with the two-model review prompt.

Two-model review prompt — paste the full SKILL.md into two different models with the prompt from the Vetting Guide. Confirm both return LOW or MEDIUM with no injection class hit.
