- expo-project-structureexpo/skillsFolder structure for a new Expo app. Use when scaffolding or laying out a new Expo project with Expo Router, or deciding where a file should live in one. For new projects only — never restructure an existing app to match.OfficialOtherNo warnings★ 3.4K↓ —
- microsoft-docsmicrosoft/skillsUnderstand Microsoft technologies by querying official documentation. Use whenever the user asks how something works, wants tutorials, needs configuration options, limits, quotas, or best practices for any Microsoft technology (Azure, .NET, M365, Windows, Power Platform, etc.)—even if they don't mention "docs." If the question is about understanding a concept rather than writing code, this is the right skill.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- kqlmicrosoft/skillsKQL language expertise for writing correct, efficient Kusto Query Language queries. Covers syntax gotchas, join patterns, dynamic types, datetime pitfalls, regex patterns, serialization, memory management, result-size discipline, and advanced functions (geo, vector, graph). USE THIS SKILL whenever writing, debugging, or reviewing KQL queries — even simple ones — because the gotchas section prevents the most common errors that waste tool calls and cause expensive retry cascades. Trigger on: KQL, Kusto, ADX, Azure Data Explorer, Fabric Real-Time Intelligence, EventHouse, Log Analytics, log analysis, data exploration, time series, anomaly detection, summarize, where clause, join, extend, project, let statement, parse operator, extract function, any mention of pipe-forward query syntax.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- azure-mgmt-mongodbatlas-dotnetmicrosoft/skillsManage MongoDB Atlas Organizations as Azure ARM resources using Azure.ResourceManager.MongoDBAtlas SDK. Use when creating, updating, listing, or deleting MongoDB Atlas organizations through Azure Marketplace integration. This SDK manages the Azure-side organization resource, not Atlas clusters/databases directly.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- security-best-practicesopenai/skillsPerform language and framework specific security best-practice reviews and suggest improvements. Trigger only when the user explicitly requests security best practices guidance, a security review/report, or secure-by-default coding help. Trigger only for supported languages (python, javascript/typescript, go). Do not trigger for general code review, debugging, or non-security tasks.OfficialSecurityNo warnings★ 28.4K↓ —Also in 1 other repo
- teams-app-developermicrosoft/skillsBuilds, tests, and deploys Microsoft 365 apps and agents for Teams and Copilot. Includes sub-skills for project creation, local testing, cloud deployment, troubleshooting, and Slack-to-Teams migration. USE FOR: Teams agent, bot, tab, message extension, Declarative Agents, Custom Engine Agents, local testing, Agents Playground, Azure resource provision, remote deployment, Slack to Teams migration, cross-platform bot development, Block Kit to Adaptive Cards conversion. DO NOT USE FOR: general web development, non-bot/non-Teams projects.OfficialTestingNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- stripe-paystripe/aiHelps users send funds to another Stripe business, transfer money to a Stripe Profile handle or network ID, or ask whether an agent can pay a Stripe business. Use Stripe Directory to find or verify a recipient when the user doesn't provide an exact Stripe Profile handle or network ID.OfficialOtherNo warnings★ 2K↓ —Also in 4 other repos
- expo-data-fetchingexpo/skillsUse when implementing or debugging ANY network request, API call, or data fetching. Covers fetch API, React Query, SWR, error handling, caching, offline support, loading/empty/error screen states, and Expo Router data loaders (`useLoaderData`).OfficialEngineeringNo warnings★ 3.4K↓ —
- azure-monitor-ingestion-javamicrosoft/skillsAzure Monitor Ingestion SDK for Java. Send custom logs to Azure Monitor via Data Collection Rules (DCR) and Data Collection Endpoints (DCE). Triggers: "LogsIngestionClient java", "azure monitor ingestion java", "custom logs java", "DCR java", "data collection rule java".OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- azure-ai-translation-tsmicrosoft/skillsBuild translation applications using Azure Translation SDKs for JavaScript (@azure-rest/ai-translation-text, @azure-rest/ai-translation-document). Use when implementing text translation, transliteration, language detection, or batch document translation.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- stripe-directorystripe/aiIdentifies external providers, merchants, nonprofits, platforms, APIs, and software services, and resolves the documented way to engage them — to pay, donate, subscribe, book, provision, or integrate with them. MUST be used BEFORE web search, model memory, or any other directory/vendor-lookup skill for ANY request that requires selecting, finding, or engaging an external provider or organization — whether a specific one is named ("pay my Twilio bill"), implied ("donate to the Red Cross"), or only a category is stated ("set up a mailing client", "I need a database", "find me a CRM"). Directory supplies verified recipients and their documented payment or engagement path. Results are ranked by agent-readiness (how reliably an agent can complete the interaction), relevance and popularity. Don't treat this as a search-only tool. Examples: "setup a database", "find hosting", "pay X", "use Twilio", "donate $50 to the Red Cross", "book a table at Y", "subscribe to a CRM".OfficialDataNo warnings★ 2K↓ —Also in 4 other repos
- azure-resource-manager-sql-dotnetmicrosoft/skillsAzure Resource Manager SDK for Azure SQL in .NET. Use for MANAGEMENT PLANE operations: creating/managing SQL servers, databases, elastic pools, firewall rules, and failover groups via Azure Resource Manager. NOT for data plane operations (executing queries) - use Microsoft.Data.SqlClient for that. Triggers: "SQL server", "create SQL database", "manage SQL resources", "ARM SQL", "SqlServerResource", "provision Azure SQL", "elastic pool", "firewall rule".OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 3.2K↓ —
- observability-csp-investigationNewelastic/agent-skillsInvestigate cloud-provider (CSP) service issues — AWS today (the reasoning applies to any AWS service; schema and failure signatures are deepest for RDS, Lambda, SQS, ALB, EC2), and in future GCP and Azure — using OTel-schema cloud metrics in Elastic. Use when diagnosing cloud-resource problems, whether alert-triggered or ad hoc: database connection/CPU/memory pressure, function error rates and throttling, queue backlog and consumer lag, load-balancer 5xx, instance saturation. Correlates the resource under investigation against its own baseline, classifies the failure mode, and rules out co-occurring but unrelated conditions.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 602↓ —Also in 1 other repo
- observability-k8s-investigationelastic/agent-skillsInvestigate Kubernetes workload, node, and control-plane issues using OTel telemetry (EDOT). Use when diagnosing pod failures (CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, Error), node pressure, resource exhaustion, image pull failures, admission rejections, autoscaling anomalies, or correlating K8s state with application signals. OTel ingest path only — the legacy ECS Kubernetes integration shape is out of scope.OfficialDevOpsNo warnings★ 602↓ —Also in 1 other repo
- kibana-anomaly-detectionelastic/agent-skillsElastic ML anomaly detection — investigation/RCA, score explanation, job lifecycle troubleshooting, and job operations. Use when answering "what broke?"/"which entity?"/RCA, "why is score high/low?"/renormalization, "datafeed stopped"/"memory limit"/hard_limit, or configuring ML anomaly detection jobs. Reads results from `.ml-anomalies-*` and job state from ML REST APIs.OfficialFinanceNo warnings★ 602↓ —Also in 1 other repo
- postgres-proJeffallan/claude-skillsUse when optimizing PostgreSQL queries, configuring replication, or implementing advanced database features. Invoke for EXPLAIN analysis, JSONB operations, extension usage, VACUUM tuning, performance monitoring.DataNo warnings★ 12.1K↓ —
- cli-developerJeffallan/claude-skillsUse when building CLI tools, implementing argument parsing, or adding interactive prompts. Invoke for parsing flags and subcommands, displaying progress bars and spinners, generating bash/zsh/fish completion scripts, CLI design, shell completions, and cross-platform terminal applications using commander, click, typer, or cobra.EngineeringNo warnings★ 12.1K↓ —
- software-for-agentsmvschwarz/openrigUse when older OpenRig instructions name software-for-agents or describe agent-in-the-middle or studio software under the former skill name.OtherNo warnings★ 8.3K↓ —
- learntigerless-labs/autoharnessUse when users /learn, save, remember, or distill lessons.OtherNo warnings★ 10.4K↓ —
- firebase-security-rules-auditorfirebase/agent-skillsAudits Firebase (Firestore, Cloud Storage) security rules for vulnerabilities, privilege escalation, role bypasses, create vs update inconsistencies, resource exhaustion, type safety, size limits, and hasOnly ownership checks. Use when auditing/reviewing rules, running red-team rule assessments, or scoring against auditor checklists. Don't use for Firebase CLI (login, deploy), Auth, Crashlytics, Remote Config, or database queries.OfficialSecurityNo warnings★ 491↓ —
- delegating-workmvschwarz/openrigUse when you have a task and must decide WHO does it — yourself, a spawned subagent, or another agent in the topology that already holds the context — or how to brief the agent you hand it to, which depends on the model it runs. The rule: how much would a blank slate have to read in to do this correctly? A lot → route to a context-holding agent; a little → subagent; unsure → a real agent or yourself. NOT the mechanics of fanning out (that's dispatching-parallel-agents / subagent-driven-development) — this is the who/whether decision, and the failure mode that makes teams abandon subagents. Also use it to decide how far to trust a delegated result.ProductivityNo warnings★ 8.3K↓ —
- mission-slice-sopmvschwarz/openrigUse when starting, building, handing off, restoring, or closing a mission or slice under the default lightweight SDLC.OtherNo warnings★ 8.3K↓ —
- hive.browser-automationaden-hive/hiveRequired before any hive-browser CLI command. The browser is driven from the terminal by running `hive-browser <command> ... --json` via terminal_exec — not via MCP tools. Teaches the browser lifecycle rules (the bridge attaches to the USER'S running Chrome — never kill or launch browser processes; timeouts are transport issues, not crashes), the screenshot + coordinate workflow (hive-browser interact with a fractional coordinate) that reaches shadow-DOM inputs selectors can't see, the viewport-fraction coordinate rule (not pixels), rich-text editor quirks ("send button stays disabled" failures), and CSP gotchas. Covers Chrome via CDP through the GCU Beeline extension.BrowserNo warnings★ 11.1K↓ —
- agent-startup-and-context-ingestionmvschwarz/openrigUse when designing or auditing how an agent becomes useful after launch — AGENTS.md overlays, role files, skills, rig specs, workflow specs, startup checklists, refocus messages, "rig context" surface. Covers the 4 failure modes that make startup context fail (old rig spec misses current operating mode; current agents never told about new guidance; startup file as dumping ground; orchestrator transmits implementation without preserving product intent).ProductivityNo warnings★ 8.3K↓ —Also in 1 other repo
