Quick Start

Choose your agent:

For Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Gemini users (no setup, free)

Every skill has two one-click copy buttons on the website:

Button	What it does
Try in Chat	Copies a condensed prompt. Paste into Claude.ai, ChatGPT or Gemini and the skill works for that conversation.
Add to My AI	Copies the full skill plus setup instructions. Paste into any AI chat and it walks you through creating a permanent Claude Project or Custom GPT with the skill built in. Use it across all future conversations.

No terminal, no git, no CLI. Browse a skill page, click the button, paste.

For Claude.ai Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise (Custom Skills upload)

Claude.ai paid accounts support native Custom Skills.

On GitHub, navigate to the skill folder you want (e.g. engineering/senior-fullstack/)
Download it as a zip. Paste the folder URL into download-directory.github.io to get a zip of just that folder.
In Claude.ai, go to Settings → Features → Custom Skills → Upload
Upload the zip. The skill becomes available in every conversation on that account.

This does not sync to Claude Desktop or the API.

For Claude Code Users (Recommended)

# In Claude Code, run:
/plugin marketplace add borghei/Claude-Skills
/plugin install marketings@claude-code-skills

Auto-Update

Keep your installed skills up to date automatically.

Method 1: Skill Installer CLI (Recommended)

# Pull latest repository changes
git pull origin main

# Update all skills with auto-update enabled
python scripts/skill-installer.py update

# Update a specific skill
python scripts/skill-installer.py update senior-fullstack --agent claude

Method 2: GitHub Action (CI/CD)

The repository includes a sample skill-auto-update.yml workflow in templates/workflows/ that detects skill changes and generates update manifests. You can copy it to your project or create your own:

# .github/workflows/update-skills.yml
name: Update Claude Skills
on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 6 * * 1'  # Weekly on Monday
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  update:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - run: |
          git clone https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills.git /tmp/claude-skills
          cd /tmp/claude-skills
          python scripts/skill-installer.py update --agent project

Method 3: Git Submodule

For tighter integration, add the skills repo as a submodule:

# Add as submodule
git submodule add https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills.git .claude-skills

# Update to latest
git submodule update --remote .claude-skills

Update Manifest

When you install skills with --auto-update, a .claude-skills.json manifest is created in your target directory. This tracks:

Which skills are installed
Which group each skill belongs to
When each skill was last updated
Whether auto-update is enabled per skill

Multi-Agent Setup

Install the same skills across different agents for team consistency:

Example: Marketing Team Setup

# Install marketing skills to Claude Code (for content strategist)
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills/marketing/content-creator --agent claude

# Install same skills to Cursor (for developer working on content)
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills/marketing/content-creator --agent cursor

# Install to VS Code (for SEO specialist)
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills/marketing/content-creator --agent vscode

Example: Engineering Team Setup

# Full engineering suite to Claude Code
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills/engineering --agent claude

# Same suite to Cursor
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills/engineering --agent cursor

Manual Installation

For development, customization, or offline use:

Prerequisites

Git (for cloning repository)
Claude AI account or Claude Code (for using skills)

Step 1: Clone Repository

git clone https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills.git
cd claude-skills

Step 2: Install Dependencies (Optional)

Most scripts use Python standard library only:

# Optional dependencies for future features
pip install pyyaml

Step 3: Manual Copy to Agent Directory

cp -r c-level-advisor ~/.claude/skills/
cp -r product-team ~/.claude/skills/
cp -r project-management ~/.claude/skills/
cp -r engineering ~/.claude/skills/
cp -r ra-qm-team ~/.claude/skills/

# Or copy single skill
cp -r marketing/content-creator ~/.claude/skills/content-creator

For Cursor

# Copy to project directory
mkdir -p .cursor/skills
cp -r marketing .cursor/skills/

For VS Code/Copilot

# Copy to project directory
mkdir -p .github/skills
cp -r engineering .github/skills/

Step 4: Verify Python Tools

# Test marketing tools
python marketing/content-creator/scripts/brand_voice_analyzer.py --help
python marketing/content-creator/scripts/seo_optimizer.py --help

# Test C-level tools
python c-level-advisor/cto-advisor/scripts/tech_debt_analyzer.py --help
python c-level-advisor/ceo-advisor/scripts/strategy_analyzer.py --help

# Test product tools
python product-team/product-manager-toolkit/scripts/rice_prioritizer.py --help
python product-team/ui-design-system/scripts/design_token_generator.py --help

Verification & Testing

Verify Universal Installer Installation

# Check Claude Code installation
ls ~/.claude/skills/

# Check Cursor installation
ls .cursor/skills/

# Check VS Code installation
ls .github/skills/

# Check Goose installation
ls ~/.config/goose/skills/

Test Skill Usage

In Claude Code

Open Claude Code
Start a new conversation

Test a skill:

Using the content-creator skill, analyze this text for brand voice:
"Our platform revolutionizes data analytics..."

In Cursor

Open Cursor
Use Cmd+K or Ctrl+K

Reference skill:

@content-creator analyze brand voice for this file

Test Python Tools Locally

# Create test file
echo "Sample content for analysis" > test-article.txt

# Run brand voice analysis
python ~/.claude/skills/content-creator/scripts/brand_voice_analyzer.py test-article.txt

# Run SEO optimization
python ~/.claude/skills/content-creator/scripts/seo_optimizer.py test-article.txt "sample keyword"

Troubleshooting

Universal Installer Issues

Issue: "Command not found: npx"

Solution: Install Node.js and npm

# macOS
brew install node

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm

# Windows
# Download from https://nodejs.org/

Issue: "Failed to install skills"

Solution: Check network connection and permissions

# Check network
curl https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills

# Check write permissions
ls -la ~/.claude/

Issue: "Skills not showing in agent"

Solution: Restart agent and verify installation location

# Verify installation
ls -R ~/.claude/skills/

# Restart Claude Code
# Close and reopen application

Manual Installation Issues

Issue: Python scripts not executable

Solution: Add execute permissions

chmod +x marketing/content-creator/scripts/*.py
chmod +x c-level-advisor/*/scripts/*.py
chmod +x product-team/*/scripts/*.py

Issue: "Module not found" errors

Solution: Install required dependencies

# Install Python dependencies
pip install pyyaml

# Or use Python 3 specifically
pip3 install pyyaml

Issue: Skills not recognized by agent

Solution: Verify SKILL.md format and location

# Check SKILL.md exists
ls ~/.claude/skills/content-creator/SKILL.md

# Verify YAML frontmatter
head -20 ~/.claude/skills/content-creator/SKILL.md

Agent-Specific Issues

Claude Code

# Reset skills directory
rm -rf ~/.claude/skills/
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/

# Reinstall
npx agent-skills-cli add borghei/Claude-Skills --agent claude

Cursor

# Cursor uses project-local skills
# Verify project directory has .cursor/skills/

ls .cursor/skills/

VS Code/Copilot

# GitHub Copilot uses .github/skills/
# Verify directory structure

ls .github/skills/

Uninstallation
