Claude Code Skills Directory

A curated directory of popular open-source repositories with skills, plugins, and frameworks for Claude Code.

What are skills?

Skills are markdown files (SKILL.md) that give Claude Code specialized knowledge and workflows. Think of them as reusable instruction sets — each skill teaches Claude how to handle a specific domain, from writing tests to auditing SEO to generating reports.

When you invoke a skill (via /skill-name or automatically through hooks), Claude reads the markdown and follows its instructions precisely. Skills can include checklists, decision trees, code patterns, and step-by-step processes.

The repositories below are independent, community-maintained projects — Ryzo curates this list but does not endorse or vet their contents. Before installing any of them, read how to install skills safely.
