Kenning's take

What it does

Skills.sh is a directory of agent skills, which are reusable instructions and scripts that add capabilities to AI agents, with a leaderboard ranked by installs. Developers add a skill with one command, npx skills add owner/repo, and it works with agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and GitHub Copilot. The CLI is open source under the MIT licence and made by Vercel.
