Why this category exists

Profiles that help teams write, review, and maintain reusable skills.

Editorial profileEditorial review profile

Skill Safety Review

Use this profile when a team needs a repeatable way to screen public skills for hidden assumptions, risky permissions, or maintenance gaps.

This is a review profile, not a directly installable skill. Use it to evaluate upstream skills before you copy any command into a trusted environment.

Review source reputation and update history before installation.

Editorial profileEditorial authoring profile

Skill Authoring Blueprint

Use this profile when the goal is to turn repeated prompts into stable, reviewable skills rather than one-off automation sprawl.

This profile helps with writing and reviewing skills, but it does not map to one verified install command. Use the linked sources and guides when you need directly runnable setup instructions.

1 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-03-11

Prefer explicit triggers and clear boundaries over magic behavior.

Source instructions onlySkillsMP + upstream GitHub repositories

Claude Code Skills Packages

Use this profile when you are comparing Claude Code skill collections and need a clear mental model for what a package is, how SKILL.md-based bundles work, and how to evaluate them before installation.

Install a skills package by following the upstream repository's setup instructions; each package has its own install path.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Do not blindly install unreviewed skills from SkillsMP or any other public directory.

Source instructions onlyAnthropic first-party Claude Code docs

CLAUDE.md Setup

Use this profile when Claude Code keeps missing project conventions, architecture context, or operating rules and you need to structure CLAUDE.md files deliberately instead of relying on repeated prompts.

Install Claude Code first, then use /init and the official memory docs to create and refine the CLAUDE.md files that should persist across sessions.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Do not put API keys, passwords, or other secrets in any CLAUDE.md file.

Source instructions onlyAnthropic subagents + workflow docs

Subagents Workflow

Use this profile when one Claude Code session is becoming a bottleneck and the work can be split into parallel, scoped subtasks with cleaner context boundaries.

Install Claude Code, then define subagents under .claude/agents or ~/.claude/agents and follow Anthropic's documented rules for scope, permissions, and context management.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Each subagent has its own tool permissions, so define scope and allowed actions explicitly before delegation.

Source instructions onlyAnthropic Claude Code workflow docs

Claude Code Git Workflow

Use this profile when Claude Code is part of a real Git workflow and you need the collaboration pattern around branching, reviewing, and landing work to stay disciplined.

Install Claude Code and use Anthropic's official workflow guidance for commits, pull requests, and multi-worktree sessions rather than copying undocumented shell aliases.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Avoid letting Claude Code automatically push to main or perform force pushes without an explicit human checkpoint.

Source instructions onlyAnthropic Claude Code docs + community skill patterns

AI Code Review Skill

Use this profile when the main goal is diff analysis: spotting regressions, missing tests, risky assumptions, or release-boundary mistakes before a change merges.

Install gstack from the upstream repository, then use its documented review workflow inside Claude Code instead of copying a one-off review prompt from a forum thread.

2 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

AI review is an assistive layer and cannot replace human review for security-sensitive, compliance-critical, or high-blast-radius code paths.

Source instructions onlygstack cso skill + Anthropic best practices

Security Audit Skill

Use this profile when you need an AI-assisted security pass across application code, dependencies, secrets handling, and release surfaces before shipping or inheriting a codebase.

Install gstack from the upstream repository, then enable the documented security-audit workflow and adapt its checks to your own trust boundaries and deployment surface.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Audit output requires human validation before remediation or sign-off because Claude Code can miss context, overstate issues, or invent risk where none exists.

Source instructions onlyTypeScript official docs + Anthropic best practices

TypeScript Project Skill

Use this profile when the repo is TypeScript-first and you want the agent to respect tsconfig boundaries, type inference, strictness, and the build scripts that already define correctness.

Install Claude Code in a TypeScript repository, keep tsconfig aligned with the official docs, and let the agent work against the real tsc and package scripts already defined by the project.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Do not weaken strict compiler settings just to make an AI-generated patch pass quickly.

Source instructions onlyNext.js official docs + Anthropic best practices

Next.js App Router Skill

Use this profile when the repository is built on Next.js App Router and you want Claude Code to follow the framework's routing, data-fetching, and server-client boundaries correctly.

Install or scaffold the App Router project from the official Next.js docs first, then let Claude Code operate against the repository's real routing, build, and verification conventions.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Do not blur server-only and client-only code paths when moving logic across App Router boundaries.

Source instructions onlyAnthropic prompt engineering docs + Claude Code best practices

Prompt Engineering Skill

Use this profile when the quality bottleneck is not installation but instruction design: project rules, system framing, few-shot examples, and stable prompt patterns that Claude Code can reuse.

Install Claude Code, then apply Anthropic's prompt-engineering guidance in reusable CLAUDE.md rules, custom commands, or task prompts instead of treating this as a standalone package install.

3 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-01

Do not encode secrets, private credentials, or sensitive customer data into reusable system prompts or CLAUDE.md files.

Source instructions onlySkillsMP

claude-code-skillforge

Use this profile when you want to author, package, and iterate on Claude Code skills instead of keeping workflow logic trapped in ad-hoc prompts. It fits teams standardizing repeatable development flows across repositories.

Follow the upstream source for installation instructions.

1 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-02

Review any generated skill for shell commands, file writes, and tool permissions before treating it as reusable automation.

Source instructions onlySkillsMP

claude-forge

Use this profile when you want to shape Claude Code into a repeatable build system for prompts, hooks, and project bootstrap steps. It fits teams formalizing how new repos get AI-ready defaults.

Follow the upstream source for installation instructions.

1 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-02

Audit any bootstrap step that writes files, installs dependencies, or edits repo config before shipping it to teammates.

Source instructions onlySkillsMP

claude-project-setup

Use this profile when you are initializing Claude Code for a new or messy repository and need the project-level setup to become explicit. It is a good fit for teams standardizing CLAUDE.md, conventions, and baseline workflow files.

Follow the upstream source for installation instructions.

1 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-02

Do not copy a generic setup bundle into every repo without checking whether the project actually uses those tools, scripts, and permissions.

Source instructions onlySkillsMP

subagent-testing

Use this profile when you are authoring or refining subagent workflows and need a repeatable way to verify them. It is useful for teams that treat subagents as reusable operational units rather than one-off experiments.

Follow the upstream source for installation instructions.

1 source signals • Last reviewed 2026-04-02

Test subagents against realistic tasks so they expose scope leaks, missing context, or confusing handoff behavior before wider rollout.
