Find and install skills from the Orthogonal skill library. An agent skill from gooseworks-ai/goose-skills.

  • You need capabilities you dont have

  • Calls python3, npx and npm; reaches api.gooseworks.ai; needs GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY
  • Want to discover available skills

What it does

Find Skill is an agent skill from gooseworks-ai/goose-skills. Find and install skills from the Orthogonal skill library. Use when you need capabilities you don't have, want to discover available skills, or need to add new tools to your agent.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill.meta.json`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Skill management. The repository describes itself as: Library of Growth & GTM skills + data APIs for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor to run ads, social, content, lead gen, seo and data scraping. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • You need capabilities you dont have
  • Want to discover available skills
  • Need to add new tools to your agent

Example prompts

  • “/find-skill”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js
  • A credential in GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c650c6d. 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:

    • python3
    • npx
    • npm

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.gooseworks.ai

    Also links to:

    • orthogonal.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Find Skill loads about 843 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 262 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~843

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 Skill

Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:

bash
export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: npx gooseworks login

All endpoints use Bearer auth: -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"

Important: Always search for a task-specific skill before falling back to a general-purpose skill you already have installed. Don't stretch a broad skill to cover a task it wasn't designed for — e.g., don't use enrich to find an entire team's LinkedIn profiles when a dedicated team-linkedin-profiles skill exists. When in doubt, run orth skills search first.
