# Find Skills Discover and install skills from the open agent skills ecosystem using `npx skills`. ## Installation ### OpenClaw / Moltbot / Clawbot ```bash npx clawhub@latest install find-skills ``` ## WHAT This Skill Does Helps users find and install modular skill packages that extend agent capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools. ## WHEN To Use - User asks "how do I do X" where X might have an existing skill - User says "find a skill for X" or "is there a skill for X" - User asks "can you do X" where X is a specialized capability - User wants to extend agent capabilities - User mentions wishing they had help with a specific domain **KEYWORDS**: find skill, search skill, install skill, add skill, npx skills, skills.sh ## The Workflow ### 1. Identify What They Need Map their request to a search query: - Domain: React, testing, design, deployment, etc. - Task: writing tests, creating animations, reviewing PRs, etc. ### 2. Search for Skills ```bash npx skills find [query] ``` **Examples:** | User Request | Search Query | |--------------|--------------| | "How do I make my React app faster?" | `npx skills find react performance` | | "Can you help with PR reviews?" | `npx skills find pr review` | | "I need to create a changelog" | `npx skills find changelog` | ### 3. Present Results When results are found: ``` I found a skill that might help! The "[skill-name]" skill provides [brief description]. To install it: npx skills add [owner/repo@skill] Learn more: https://skills.sh/[owner]/[repo]/[skill] ``` ### 4. Install (If Requested) ```bash npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y ``` - `-g` = install globally (user-level) - `-y` = skip confirmation prompts ## Common Skill Categories | Category | Example Queries | |----------|-----------------| | Web Development | react, nextjs, typescript, tailwind | | Testing | testing, jest, playwright, e2e | | DevOps | deploy, docker, kubernetes, ci-cd | | Documentation | docs, readme, changelog, api-docs | | Code Quality | review, lint, refactor, best-practices | | Design | ui, ux, design-system, accessibility | ## When No Skills Found ``` I searched for skills related to "[query]" but didn't find any matches. I can still help with this task directly. Would you like me to proceed? If this is something you do often, you could create your own skill: npx skills init my-skill-name ``` ## NEVER - Assume a skill exists without searching first - Install skills without user confirmation - Recommend creating a skill when an existing one would work - Search with vague single-word queries (be specific: "react testing" not "testing") ## Key Commands Reference | Command | Purpose | |---------|---------| | `npx skills find [query]` | Search for skills | | `npx skills add <package>` | Install a skill | | `npx skills add <pkg> -g -y` | Install globally, skip prompts | | `npx skills check` | Check for updates | | `npx skills update` | Update installed skills | | `npx skills init` | Create a new skill | **Browse all skills:** https://skills.sh/
