A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file that teaches your
coding agent one job — reviewing a PR, designing a schema, shipping to AWS.
Drop it in, and Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, OpenCode or Codex picks it
up automatically.
Every install is the same line — only the selector changes.
Pick the closest job. You can widen or narrow it once you’re in.
Loading the catalog…
The local Skills MCP server lets an AI assistant browse categories, search skills, preview one skill, read the selected docs, and copy chosen skills into a workspace. It reads your local clone and keeps the agent context small.
repo-skills
git clone https://github.com/mouadja02/skills.git
cd skills
npm install
npm run build:manifest
{
"mcpServers": {
"repo-skills": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["C:/path/to/skills/scripts/skills-mcp.mjs"],

Use the repo-skills MCP server. Do not load the whole library.
Call list_categories first, then list_skills or search_skills.
Use get_skill for previews and read_skill_doc only for chosen skills.
Install useful skills into this workspace's .claude/skills directory.
list_categories -> list_skills or search_skills -> get_skill -> read_skill_doc only for the final selection.
install_skill copies one selected skill folder into .claude/skills, .codex/skills, or any destination your client allows.
No hosted service is required. The MCP process reads local files and writes only when the agent calls install_skill.
Before the first tool call, the server can run git pull --ff-only and reload the manifest. Disable with SKILLS_MCP_AUTO_REFRESH=false.
