Discover and install agent skills from the open ecosystem. An agent skill from poteto/noodle.

  • Works in 3 steps: Run pnpx skills find [query] with… → Present results with the skill name,… → If the user wants it, install with pnpx…

What it does

Find Skills is an agent skill from poteto/noodle. Discover and install agent skills from the open ecosystem. Use IMMEDIATELY when the user asks "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill for X", "can you do X" for specialized capabilities, wants to extend agent functionality, mentions a domain they wish they had help with, or asks about tools/templates/workflows that might exist as installable skills.

Its SKILL.md is about 310 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Orchestrate agents using skills. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks how do I do X
  • Find a skill for X
  • Is there a skill for X
  • Can you do X for specialized capabilities

Example prompts

  • “how do I do X”
  • “find a skill for X”
  • “is there a skill for X”
  • “/find-skills”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run pnpx skills find [query] with keywords matching the user's need
  2. Present results with the skill name, what it does, and the install command
  3. If the user wants it, install with pnpx skills add -y

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 82d2921. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    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 314 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 95 tokens; SKILL.md has 101 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~95
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~314

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.
