Skills Hub

Drives the real skills-hub CLI to browse and install preset skill kits, but kit apply silently requires a GUI-only project-registration step the SKILL.md never mentions.

Ran the real bundled CLI end to end in a throwaway HOME: `kit preset-list`, `preset-search`, and `preset-inspect` all worked and returned genuine curated preset data; `kit preset-install --id web-frontend-excellence` actually cloned real skills from 3 live GitHub sources (vercel-labs/agent-skills, addyosmani/web-quality-skills, anthropics/skills). But the documented final step, `kit apply --id <kit> --project <path> --agent <name>`, fails with 'Target project is not registered in Skills Hub' -- tracing the CLI source (lib/services/kit-service.mjs:802) shows project/agent registration has no CLI subcommand at all; it's only reachable through the separate Tauri desktop app, which the SKILL.md never mentions as a prerequisite.

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 7/10
  • Docs & honesty 3/5

What Skills Hub does

Orchestrates the skills-hub CLI's preset catalog to recommend, inspect, and install AGENTS.md policy + skill-package kits for a project (React/Next.js, Python API, LangChain, etc.), then applies the installed kit to a target project and agent. Triggers on requests to pick a project setup from Skills Hub presets, browse/inspect presets, or install/apply a skill kit.

How to install Skills Hub

git clone https://github.com/PotatoDog1669/skills-hub
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills-hub/.codex/skills/skills-hub ~/.claude/skills/skills-hub

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

Commands — how to trigger Skills Hub

  • /skills-hub Drives the real skills-hub CLI to browse and install preset skill kits, but kit apply silently requires a GUI-only project-registration step the SKILL.md never mentions.

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • Recommend a skill kit preset for a Next.js frontend project I'm starting.
  • Browse the available AGENTS.md policy kits before I pick a project setup.
  • Install the Python API preset kit and apply it to this project.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Skills Hub skill free?
Yes. The skill itself is free from PotatoDog1669/skills-hub. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
Does Skills Hub work with Claude Code?
We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 16, 2026. Verdict: Works with setup.

What is the Skills Hub SkillProof Score?
7.6/10 — installs cleanly 4/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 7/10, docs & honesty 3/5.
How do I install Skills Hub?
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 Skills Hub 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.
