Claude Skills

How to use it

1. Scroll the card list, or type a keyword in the search box to filter instantly.
2. Each card shows the skill name, what it does and when to use it.
3. The description text follows the site language; the skill names stay in their canonical form.
4. Use it as a lookup aid, then check the official Anthropic Skills documentation for current details.

Common use cases

• Picking a skill - match a task (PDF handling, spreadsheet work, testing a web app) to the skill that covers it.
• Learning the ecosystem - get a quick mental map of document skills, builder skills and workflow skills.
• Onboarding teammates - give colleagues a one-screen summary instead of a documentation crawl.
• Planning automation - see which workflows already have a skill before writing custom tooling.

Why it stays private

The card data is embedded in this page and filtering runs locally in your browser. Searches and browsing are never sent to any server, and the page makes no network requests.

FAQ

Q: Are these descriptions official documentation? A: They are summaries written from the public Anthropic Skills documentation, condensed to one purpose line and one usage line per skill. Features can change between releases, so treat the official docs as the source of truth.

Q: How do I actually use a skill? A: Skills are used inside Claude products or the Agent SDK: place the skill files in the location the product documents, and the agent loads the skill when the task matches. This page only helps you choose which one.

Q: Will the list stay current? A: The list reflects the skills documented at the time of writing. Anthropic adds new skills over time, so verify against the official catalog when you need a capability that is not listed here.
