What it does

Find Skills is an agent skill from cnfjlhj/ai-collab-playbook. Use when the user asks whether a skill exists, wants help finding or installing one, or asks how to extend agent capabilities with a reusable skill. Start with npx skills find; if that fails, use a GitHub-aware fallback before concluding no good match exists.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Practical AI collaboration playbook for research, writing, reading, and coding: article, prompts, agent rules, and reusable skills.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks whether a skill exists
  • Wants help finding
  • Asks how to extend agent capabilities with a reusable skill

Example prompts

  • “/find-skills”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Form a specific query from the task and run DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1 npx -y skills find .
  2. If the registry finds a strong candidate, present the skill name, what it does, and the install command.
  3. If the registry misses, do a GitHub-aware fallback such as a GitHub search or skills repo listing.
  4. If a promising repo appears, list or install the specific skill with npx -y skills add.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b3ee0d6. 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

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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 563 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 317 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~563

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 317 words (~563 tokens).

“This skill discovers reusable skills before you reinvent one locally. The preferred route is fast registry search first, then a GitHub-aware fallback only if the registry does not surface a good candidate.”
