This repository is useful as a reference point for common skill structure: SKILL.md, references, scripts, assets, and progressive disclosure.

Open the GitHub repository. Star counts and labels are editorial snapshots for orientation, not live statistics or endorsements.

Good use cases

  • Learning skill anatomy.
  • Comparing official examples with community repositories.
  • Designing a new skill package with clearer boundaries.

What to inspect first

SKILL.md

Confirm that triggers, boundaries, referenced files, and script behavior are clear.

Review points

  • Study folder layout before copying individual instructions.
  • Check how each example limits when it should trigger.
  • Use examples as structure references, not as universal templates.

Safety notes

  • Read the license and attribution before reuse.
  • Inspect scripts before running them.
  • Do not assume every example fits your agent environment unchanged.
