Show HN: Agent Skills – 51 SKILL.md workflows for coding agents and marketers

Developer Milad Ahmadi released Agent Skills, a collection of 51 SKILL.md workflow files installable via `/plugin install` or `npx skills add milad-ahmd/agent-skills` for coding agents including Claude Code, Cline, Cursor and Codex. The skills are grouped into eight role-based packs — indie-hacker, creator, marketer, local-business, startup-cto, developer, skill-builder and fun — covering tasks such as PR review, secrets guarding, SEO, social analytics and a GitHub-profile roaster. The release targets developers and marketers who want reusable, auto-selected agent workflows rather than ad-hoc prompts.

A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file: YAML frontmatter (name, description) followed by instructions, plus optional scripts. Your agent reads the description and loads the full instructions only when the task matches, so your context stays clean and the agent follows a proven workflow instead of improvising.

~/.claude/skills/
└── pr-reviewer-pro/
    ├── SKILL.md
    └── scripts/collect_diff.sh

Agent without native skill support? Paste any SKILL.md into your rules file (.clinerules, .cursor/rules, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md).

Every skill in this collection:

  • ✅ Investigates before acting. It reads your repo and follows your conventions.
  • ✅ Never invents facts. It cites evidence and marks unknowns as TODOs.
  • ✅ Asks before anything destructive , such as pushing, force-pushing, deleting or posting.
  • ✅ Produces a clear, structured output you can act on immediately.

All 51 skills have shipped. A new skill drops every Monday (changelog). Next up is your idea:
