What it does
Agent Skill Exchange collects skills in one repository that wrap a real tool, API or workflow into a format understood by Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, Cursor, MCP clients, OpenClaw and other hosts. Each skill is backed by a real project: a GitHub repository, an npm package or a documented API, and there are no invented entries. The README states 3206 published skills, 15 industry collections and 17 categories; there are rankings by stars and downloads, a `CATALOG.md` and a live browse page on the site. A skill sits in a `skills/<slug>/` folder with a `SKILL.md` file. Install through `clawhub` for OpenClaw or copy the folder by hand, while the third-party `skills` installer is offered as optional.
Who it is for. People looking for a ready skill for a specific tool or industry who want to see signals: stars, downloads, verification.
Good fit when
- A skill for a specific API or service is needed and is sought by category.
- A ready collection is sought for an industry such as finance or media.
- A skill should be compared by stars and download counts.
- A chosen skill is copied by hand into the agent directory.
Not a fit when
- A single vetted skill for a specific task is needed: the catalogue requires manual evaluation.
- Skills must not come from third-party catalogues without an audit.
- The agent does not read the Agent Skills format.
Example request
Find a skill for working with Paperless-ngx in the Agent Skill Exchange catalogue, show its description and copy it into the skills directory.Limitations
The repository holds thousands of third-party skills and you must evaluate each one yourself: the catalogue does not guarantee a skill is safe for your environment. Figures on skill counts, rankings and updates come from the README and change daily. OpenClaw has its own command while for other agents a skill is copied by hand. The third-party `skills` installer is maintained by Vercel Labs, not the catalogue, and its version should be pinned in the command. The repository is large, about 130 MB.
How to disable. Delete the skill folder from `~/.agent-skills/` or from your agent skills directory. For OpenClaw use removal through `clawhub`.
