Find skills

Searches the registry for a skill that fits what you are doing, and installs it.

Installation

$ npx skills add vercel-labs/skills

The CLI's unit is the repository, so this installs everything in vercel-labs/skills, not find-skills alone. It writes into whichever agent directories it finds — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed.

Summary

Searches the registry for a skill that fits what you are doing, and installs it.

  • Reach for it when the honest answer to 'is there already a skill for this' — there are 20,000 of them.
  • Sits in Working with skills — finding skills, writing your own, and keeping a skill library from turning into a junk drawer.
  • Stack-agnostic — nothing in it assumes a particular language or framework.
  • Published by Vercel Labs, who ship the thing it is about — a stronger claim than a well-regarded engineer having written something good.
  • Installing pulls the whole vercel-labs/skills repository, which is the CLI's unit — not this file alone.

The agent itself

The full text lives with its publisher and changes when they change it. Read it there rather than here — a mirrored copy of somebody else's procedure goes stale silently, and this page would have no way of telling you.
