Anthropic's document skills, the implementation behind Claude's file features: create, edit and analyze Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files, including tracked changes, comments, formulas and form filling. Source-available, not under an open-source license.

Extracts text and tables from PDFs; merges, splits and rotates pages, adds watermarks, fills forms and OCRs scanned documents. The official Anthropic skill behind Claude's document features; source-available, not open source.

Lets agents model, lay out scenes, tweak materials and run Python in Blender, and import Poly Haven, Sketchfab and AI-generated 3D assets. Requires uv and the companion Blender add-on.

Anthropic's role-based skill collection covering sales, finance, legal, HR, support, marketing, product, design, operations and data analysis: over a hundred skills you can install one at a time. Works best with CRM, data warehouse and other connectors.

Anthropic's knowledge-work plugin marketplace, bundling skills, commands and connectors by role: sales, support, product, marketing, legal, finance, HR, data and more, plus many partner plugins. Built mainly for Cowork; also works in Claude Code.

Before writing code, asks questions one at a time to clarify intent, constraints and success criteria, turning a vague idea into a reviewable design; implementation starts only after you approve it. A core Superpowers skill.

Turns the current folder into a teaching workspace you can resume across conversations: asks your learning goal, gathers reliable sources, builds short HTML lessons and cheat sheets, and tracks progress. Good for self-study and lesson prep; invoke manually (/teach), no API key.

Before you build, the agent grills you on your plan or design, offering a recommended answer each round, until every decision branch is resolved. It calls the grilling skill from the same repo, so install both.

Guides users through co-writing proposals, technical specs and decision docs in three stages: gather context, refine section by section, then test with a fresh session that lacks the context to catch what readers won't understand. Official Anthropic skill.

After giving advice, a draft or a data analysis, adds 2-3 targeted follow-up questions that prompt the user to check key facts, test the reasoning and fill in missing context. Fires at most once per conversation. Official Anthropic skill.

Creates, reads and edits Word documents: tables of contents, page numbers and letterheads, tracked changes, comments and find-and-replace, while preserving existing formatting. The official Anthropic skill behind Claude's document features; source-available, not open source.

Writes internal communications in familiar company formats: 3P updates, leadership reports, project status updates, company newsletters, FAQs and incident reports. Official Anthropic skill.

When answering questions about using Claude and its products, attaches a matching course, tutorial or case study from the Claude Academy catalog. Recommends only strong matches and never invents courses. Official Anthropic skill.

Builds multi-component web pages that need state or routing with React, Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui, using bundled init and build scripts, then packs them into a single HTML file for a claude.ai Artifact. Official Anthropic skill.

Creates, reads and edits PowerPoint decks: applies templates and layouts, handles speaker notes and comments, and merges or splits slides. The official Anthropic skill behind Claude's document features; source-available, not open source.

Recreates the deprecated Explanatory output style with a SessionStart hook: adds Insight notes before and after code that explain implementation trade-offs and codebase conventions. Official Anthropic plugin; uses extra tokens.

Learning mode: at key decision points such as business logic or error handling, asks you to write 5-10 lines of code yourself while explaining the trade-offs. Official Anthropic plugin built on a SessionStart hook; uses extra tokens.

GitHub's official spec-driven development toolkit: the specify CLI sets up spec, plan and task workflows for Copilot, Claude Code, Codex and other agents so the spec comes before the code, plus bug-fix and idea-evaluation flows. Needs Python 3.11+ and uv.

Skill pack from YC president Garry Tan: slash commands such as /office-hours, /plan-ceo-review, /review, /qa and /ship play CEO, engineering manager, designer, QA and release engineer. Needs Git and Bun; clone the repo and run ./setup as the README describes.

YC office hours skill from gstack: startup mode tests real demand, the narrowest wedge and future fit with six probing questions; builder mode brainstorms side projects, hackathons and open source. Ends with a design doc. Maintained by Garry Tan.

Official MoneyPrinterTurbo skill: give it a topic or script and the agent installs, configures and produces a short video with voiceover, stock footage, subtitles and music; defaults to Chinese vertical MP4. Needs an LLM API key and a free Pexels key; macOS and Windows.

Generates or edits images: photos, illustrations, textures, game sprites, product mockups and transparent assets. A built-in Codex system skill using the image_gen tool, no install needed; with approval it can use a bundled CLI script that needs OPENAI_API_KEY. By OpenAI.

For fuzzy requirements: the agent asks one question at a time with its own guess, clarifying users, motivation, success criteria and constraints, and restates the intent for your confirmation before planning. Needs you answering live, so not for unattended runs. From Addy Osmani's agent-skills.

Open-source local design workbench and Claude Design alternative: builds web and mobile prototypes, slides, images and motion videos from a DESIGN.md system, exporting HTML, PDF, PPTX or MP4. MCP lets Claude Code and Codex use it. Needs the macOS or Windows app; Linux from source.
