Is the Skill Builder skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

How do I install Skill Builder?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Skill Builder with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Every tool call depends on a separate MCP server that isn't bundled or auto-connected, and it never mentions that prerequisite - a plain manual approach produced a usable artifact, this one produced none.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

Installs cleanly 4/5
Triggers reliably 5/5
Output vs. baseline 4/10
Docs & honesty 3/5

What Skill Builder does

A dispatch layer that detects the type of a knowledge source (doc site, GitHub repo, PDF, video, codebase, etc.) and calls the matching Skill Seekers MCP tool (scrape_docs, scrape_github, scrape_pdf, ...) to turn it into a packaged skill, optionally exporting to a vector DB. Triggers when a user wants to create, sync, or export an AI skill from an external knowledge source.

How to install Skill Builder

git clone https://github.com/yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers
cd Skill_Seekers
pip install skill-seekers[mcp]
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r distribution/claude-plugin/skills/skill-builder ~/.claude/skills/skill-builder

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
