SkillUse - A decentralized Skills Registry for AI Agents

SkillUse is a decentralized Skills Registry for AI agents. It enables teams to discover, install, create, and publish skills across multiple AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.).

What are Skills?

A skill is more than a prompt template. It's an executable SOP that empowers AI agents with two complementary capabilities:

DimensionWhat It Provides
Domain KnowledgeExpert reasoning, best practices, decision frameworks
Workflow AutomationExecutable SOPs that orchestrate agent tools

Skills encode how experts think and how work gets done.

For Every Knowledge Worker

Skills aren't just for programmers:

  • Copywriters: Brand voice, content frameworks, editorial standards
  • Data Analysts: Analysis methodologies, visualization patterns
  • Marketers: Campaign workflows, audience research
  • Product Managers: PRD templates, prioritization frameworks
  • Engineers: Code review standards, deployment SOPs

Tool Orchestration

Skills orchestrate the agent's native tools:

ToolCapability
BashExecute CLI commands (git, docker, npm, aws...)
ReadAccess files and data sources
WriteCreate documents and code
WebSearchResearch and fact-checking
WebFetchAccess external resources

Bash is the universal connector—bridging the agent to the entire CLI ecosystem.

Getting Started
