Find Skills

This skill helps you discover and install skills from the open agent skills ecosystem using the npx skills command directly.

Capabilities

You can use the run_command tool to execute skills CLI commands directly.

1. Search for Skills

To find skills related to a topic:

npx -y skills find "your query"

Examples:

• •npx -y skills find "react performance"
• •npx -y skills find "deploy"
• •npx -y skills find "testing"

Output Interpretation: The command will list available skills with their installation command, e.g.: vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices

2. Install a Skill

Once you found a skill, you can install it using the suggested command. Note: Use -g (global) to install it for the user environment, and -y to skip confirmation.

npx -y skills add <package_name> -g -y

Example: npx -y skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices -g -y

3. List Installed Skills

To see what is currently installed:

npx -y skills list -g

When to use this?

• •When the user asks for "tools" or "skills" related to a specific topic (e.g., "help me optimize React").
• •When you lack specific knowledge in a domain (e.g. "how do I deploy to Vercel?") and want to check if a specialized skill exists.
