How we review

Extended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.

  • `deploy-it` publishes what you built to a public address.
  • `personalize` stores your answers about niche, offer and audience in `~/.claude/brand-profile.md`.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

Free Skills bundles 55 skills for Claude Code, each in its own folder. You drop them into the skills directory; no extra installs, API keys or scripts are needed. Run `personalize` first: it asks about your name, niche, offer and audience and saves the answers to `~/.claude/brand-profile.md`, after which many skills write in your voice. Then `claude-orientation` picks the first build and writes down the next step. The skills fall into groups: learning Claude Code (`brief-builder`, `prompt-fixer`, `error-decoder`, `explain-this`, `safety-net`), working habits (`claude-md-builder`, `skill-starter`, `plan-first`, `session-wrapup`, `weekly-review`), first builds (`first-website`, `landing-page`, `link-in-bio`, `simple-game`, `deploy-it`), polish (`design-taste`, `mobile-check`) and writing and sales (`email-writer`, `caption-writer`, `offer-builder`, `proposal-writer`, `objection-handler`).

Who it is for. Claude Code newcomers without programming experience who want to ship a first website and start writing posts and emails.

Good fit when

  • Claude Code was just installed and it is unclear which build to start with.
  • A wall of red error text arrived and you need to know in plain words whether it can be ignored.
  • You need a landing page with one form or a link-in-bio page instead of a third-party service.
  • Repeating tasks have piled up and you want to turn them into your own skill.
  • Before pitching a client you need a price calculation, offer text and answers to objections.

Not a fit when

  • You need skills with content pipelines, video generation and automatic publishing: the author keeps a separate heavier set for that.
  • You need deep specialisation in one field: the skills here are general and introductory.
  • You need vetted corporate processes with access control.

Example request

Run `personalize`, then `claude-orientation`: I just started with Claude Code, help me pick a first build.

Limitations

The skills are general and introductory, and the repository states no licence. No extra installs are needed, but `personalize` writes your answers to `~/.claude/brand-profile.md` and other skills read that file. `deploy-it` publishes what you built to a public address, so do not push private data through it. The README points to the author's paid club for learning; the skills work without it. Some skills repeat in the author's heavier `profit-room-skills` set.

How to disable. Delete the folders of unneeded skills from `~/.claude/skills/` and the `~/.claude/brand-profile.md` file if you do not want the profile.

FAQ

How do I install Free Skills?

Copy the folder of the skill you want into the Claude Code skills directory, for example `~/.claude/skills/`. The project has no install command and needs no keys or scripts.

Which skill comes first?

`personalize`: it saves facts about you to `~/.claude/brand-profile.md`, and later texts are written in your voice. Run `claude-orientation` next.

How does it differ from the author's heavier set?

Everything here works right after copying the folder, with no keys or installs. Content pipelines, video generation and publishing live in a separate repository, `profit-room-skills`.

How many skills are there?

Fifty-five, each in its own folder with a `SKILL.md` file.

Are API keys needed?

No. The README promises the skills work right after copying the folder, with no keys, installs or scripts.

README in short

A repository for beginners: the skills work at once, with no API keys or installs. For advanced tasks the author points to a separate set, `profit-room-skills`, and some skills appear in both.
