paper-context-resolver

paper-context-resolver

443research-knowledge

Rigor Paper Context helper for README-first deep learning repo reproduction. Use only when the README and repository files leave a narrow reproduction-critical gap and the task is to resolve a specific paper detail such as dataset split, preprocessing, evaluation protocol, checkpoint mapping, or runtime assumption from primary paper sources while recording conflicts. Do not use for general paper summary, repo scanning, environment setup, command execution, title-only paper lookup, or replacing README guidance by default.

ai-research-reproduction

ai-research-reproduction

443research-knowledge

Rigor Reproduce compatible skill slug for README-first deep learning repository reproduction. Use when the user wants an end-to-end, minimal-trustworthy flow that reads the repository first, selects the smallest documented inference or evaluation target, coordinates intake, setup, trusted execution, optional trusted training, optional repository analysis, and optional paper-gap resolution, enforces conservative patch rules, records evidence assumptions deviations and human decision points, and writes the standardized `repro_outputs/` bundle. Do not use for paper summary, generic environment setup, isolated repo scanning, standalone command execution, silent protocol changes, score chasing, or broad research assistance outside repository-grounded reproduction.

explore-code

explore-code

443code-generation

Rigor Improve implementation leaf skill for auditable candidate implementation in deep learning research repositories. Use when the researcher explicitly authorizes exploratory work on an isolated branch or worktree to transplant modules, adapt a backbone, add LoRA or adapter layers, replace a head, or stitch together meaningful low-risk migration ideas with rollback-aware records in `explore_outputs/`. Do not use for end-to-end exploration orchestration on top of `current_research`, trusted baseline reproduction, conservative debugging, environment setup, verified contribution claims, or default repository analysis.

analyze-project

analyze-project

443code-generation

Rigor Analyze / Rigor Audit read-only skill for deep learning research repositories. Use when the user wants to read and understand a repository, inspect model structure and training or inference entrypoints, review configs and insertion points, or flag suspicious implementation patterns without modifying code or running heavy jobs. Do not use for active command execution, broad refactoring, speculative code adaptation, or automatic bug fixing.

defuddle

defuddle

36Kagent-workflows

Extract clean markdown content from web pages using Defuddle CLI, removing clutter and navigation to save tokens. Use instead of WebFetch when the user provides a URL to read or analyze, for online documentation, articles, blog posts, or any standard web page. Do NOT use for URLs ending in .md — those are already markdown, use WebFetch directly.

Design engineering principles for making interfaces feel polished. Use when building UI components, reviewing frontend code, implementing animations, hover states, shadows, borders, typography, micro-interactions, enter/exit animations, or any visual detail work. Triggers on UI polish, design details, "make it feel better", "feels off", stagger animations, border radius, optical alignment, font smoothing, tabular numbers, image outlines, box shadows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Skills and MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the underlying standard protocol. Claude skills and AI skills are the actual tools and capabilities built using this standard that you install to give your AI agent new powers.

Are these skills safe to use?

Most Claude code skills listed in our marketplace are open-source, allowing you to review the code. We verify popular skills, but we always recommend reviewing the requested permissions (like file access or internet) before installation.

How do I submit my own skill?

Click the "Submit Skill" button in the top navigation bar or footer. You'll need to provide a link to your public GitHub repository. Our team will review it for quality and safety before listing it in the Claude skills marketplace.

Is this service free?

Yes, browsing and discovering skills on AI Agent Skills is completely free. Most Claude code templates and plugins listed are also open-source and free to use.

What is a Claude skills marketplace?

A Claude skills marketplace is a platform where developers share and discover AI skills, Claude code templates, and plugins. AI Agent Skills focuses on curated, released skills for Claude Code, Codex CLI, and other AI agents.

How do I find Claude code templates?

Use our search feature or browse by category to find Claude code templates. Filter by stars, recent updates, or specific categories like development, automation, or content creation to find the perfect template for your needs.

Can I use multiple skills together?

Yes, you can install and use multiple AI skills simultaneously. Claude skills are designed to work independently, so you can combine a writing skill with a research skill or use several Claude code skills in the same workflow without conflicts.

Can I create and share my own skills?

Absolutely! If you've built a useful Claude code template or automation, you can submit it to our Claude plugin marketplace. Create a public GitHub repository, add a clear README, and submit it through our platform. Your skill will be reviewed and listed in the Claude skills marketplace.

How do skills differ from slash commands?

Slash commands are built-in shortcuts in Claude Code (like /help or /clear). Claude skills are external capabilities you install to extend your AI agent with new powers—like web search, code review, or content generation. Skills are more powerful and customizable than basic commands.

How often are skills updated?

Skills in our Claude code skills market are updated by their maintainers. Popular AI skills typically receive updates weekly or monthly. You can sort by 'Recently Updated' to find actively maintained Claude skills, and check the GitHub repository for update frequency.

What is marketplace.json?

marketplace.json is a configuration file some skills use to define metadata for the Claude marketplace. It includes the skill name, description, version, and installation instructions. Not all skills require this file—many work directly from their GitHub repository.

Is this website affiliated with Anthropic or OpenAI?

No, AI Agent Skills is an independent Claude skills marketplace created by the community. We are not officially affiliated with Anthropic (makers of Claude) or OpenAI. We curate and list open-source AI skills and Claude code templates from developers worldwide.
