What it does

Find Skills is an agent skill from aspectrr/deer. Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", or express interest in extending capabilities.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Frontend & Design. The repository describes itself as: 🦌 The AI Elasticsearch Engineer. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Frontend & Design work in your project

Example prompts

  • “how do I do X”
  • “find a skill for X”
  • “Use the find-skills skill to help users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", or…”
  • “/find-skills”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Docker

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Understand the need
  2. Check leaderboard
  3. Search
  4. Verify quality
  5. Present options
  6. Offer to install

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e4f9845. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • skills.sh

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Find Skills loads about 589 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 252 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~589

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Find Skills

Discover and install skills from the open agent skills ecosystem.

When to Use

  • User asks "how do I do X" where X might have an existing skill
  • User says "find a skill for X" or "is there a skill for X"
  • User wants to extend agent capabilities
  • User mentions needing help with a specific domain

Skills CLI

The Skills CLI (npx skills) is the package manager for agent skills:

  • npx skills find [query] - Search for skills
  • npx skills add <package> - Install a skill from GitHub
  • npx skills check - Check for updates
  • npx skills update - Update all installed skills

Browse skills at: https://skills.sh/

How to Help

Step 1: Understand the need

Identify the domain (React, testing, design, deployment), specific task, and whether a skill likely exists.

Step 2: Check leaderboard

Check https://skills.sh/ for well-known skills in the domain before searching.

bash
npx skills find [query]
Step 4: Verify quality
  1. Install count — Prefer 1K+ installs. Caution under 100.
  2. Source reputation — Official sources (vercel-labs, anthropics, microsoft) are more trustworthy.
  3. GitHub stars — Check the source repository.
Step 5: Present options

Show skill name, what it does, install count, source, and install command.

Step 6: Offer to install
bash
npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y
