  • skillmd_getFree

    Fetch one skill by owner/name slug: description, SKILL.md body, provenance (source repo and pinned commit), license, safety verdict and capability flags, plus companion file listing for packs.

  • skillmd_recommendFree

    Recommend skills. With based_on set to a skill's owner/name slug, returns the top skills in that skill's category (excluding itself); without it, returns what is trending over the last 30 days.

  • skillmd_searchFree

    Search the SkillMD registry of Agent Skills (SKILL.md files) by task, name or keywords. Returns matching skills with their owner/name slug, description, category, safety verdict and install snippet, best match first.

What the publisher says

From the Skillmd repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

SkillMD

The registry that lints. Search, install, lint and publish Agent Skills (SKILL.md) for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 60+ other agents. This repo is the open-source toolchain behind skillmd.com: the CLI, the MCP server, the GitHub Action and the SKILL.md engine they share.

What this is

An Agent Skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file: YAML frontmatter (name, description) plus Markdown instructions an agent loads on demand. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf and dozens of other agents read the same format, which is what makes a shared registry worth having. If the format is new to you, start with What is an Agent Skill? and the anatomy of a SKILL.md file.

skillmd.com is the open registry of those skills: 25,000+ skills from 470+ publishers, every one of them linted against the format, security-scanned for what it can do, and pinned to a commit. Verdicts, capability flags and independent scanner results sit on every skill page. Installing writes files and does nothing else.

This repository is everything that runs on your machine or in your CI, MIT-licensed:

The registry applies the same engine, so a skill that passes locally passes on publish.

Quick start

# Search the registry and install a skill into every agent on your machine
npx skillmds search "pdf"
npx skillmds add anthropic/pdf

# Lint your own skill before you share it
npx skillmds lint ./my-skill

Plugins

A plugin is a bundle of skills that installs as one unit. In Claude Code it becomes a real plugin — /plugin lists it, and enable, disable and uninstall work on the whole set — and on every other agent the skills are installed individually.

npx skillmds add plugin:skillmd/design

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
