name: unified-find-skills description: Helps users discover and install agent skills from skills.sh, clawhub.com, and tessl.io. Use when the user asks to find a skill for a task, extend agent capabilities, or search for tools/workflows.

Find Skills

This skill helps you discover and install skills from three registries:

• skills.sh - The original open agent skills ecosystem
• clawhub.com - Vector-based skill search with simple slugs (requires clawhub CLI)
• tessl.io - Registry with versioned skills and tiles

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user:

• Asks "how do I do X" where X might be a common task with an existing skill
• Says "find a skill for X" or "is there a skill for X"
• Asks "can you do X" where X is a specialized capability
• Expresses interest in extending agent capabilities
• Wants to search for tools, templates, or workflows
• Mentions they wish they had help with a specific domain (design, testing, deployment, etc.)

Search Available Registries

Search all available registries. If clawhub CLI is not installed, skip that registry.

Step 1: Understand What They Need

When a user asks for help with something, identify:

1. The domain (e.g., React, testing, design, deployment)
2. The specific task (e.g., writing tests, creating animations, reviewing PRs)
3. Whether this is a common enough task that a skill likely exists

Step 2: Search Available Registries

Check which CLIs are available and search in parallel:

# skills.sh (always available via npx)
npx skills find [query] --limit 5

# clawhub (only if installed)
if command -v clawhub &> /dev/null; then
  clawhub search "[query]" --limit 5
fi

# tessl.io (via web scraping)
curl -s "https://tessl.io/registry/discover?contentType=skills" | grep -o 'name:"[^"]*"' | head -10

For example:

• User asks "how do I make my React app faster?" → search available registries for "react performance"
• User asks "can you help me with PR reviews?" → search available registries for "pr review"
• User asks "I need to create a changelog" → search available registries for "changelog"

Note on clawhub: Requires clawhub CLI installed. Install with npm install -g clawhub if not available.

Note on tessl.io: The tessl registry doesn't have a simple CLI search command. You can:

• Browse at https://tessl.io/registry/discover?contentType=skills
• Extract skill names from the page using curl + grep
• Use tessl skill search [query] (interactive mode only)

Step 3: Present Options to the User

When you find relevant skills, present them organized by registry with:

For skills.sh results:

1. The skill name and what it does
2. The install command they can run
3. A link to learn more at skills.sh

For clawhub results:

1. The skill slug and version
2. Description if available
3. The install command they can run

For tessl.io results:

1. The skill name
2. Description if available (from the registry page)
3. The install command they can run

Example response:

I found some skills that might help!

**From skills.sh:**
- "vercel-react-best-practices" - React and Next.js performance optimization guidelines from Vercel Engineering
  Install: npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills@vercel-react-best-practices
  Learn more: https://skills.sh/vercel-labs/agent-skills/vercel-react-best-practices

**From clawhub:**
- "react-expert v0.1.0" - React Expert
  Install: clawhub install react-expert

**From tessl.io:**
- "react-doctor" - Diagnose and fix React codebase health issues
  Browse: https://tessl.io/registry/discover?contentType=skills
  Install: tessl install <skill-name> (requires tessl CLI)

Step 4: Offer to Install

If the user wants to proceed with a skill:

For skills.sh skills:

npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y

The -g flag installs globally (user-level) and -y skips confirmation prompts.

For clawhub skills:

clawhub install <slug>

Optionally specify version:

clawhub install <slug> --version <version>

For tessl.io skills:

tessl install <skill-name>

Install from GitHub:

tessl install github:user/repo

Registry Comparison

Feature	skills.sh	clawhub.com	tessl.io
Search format	npx skills find <query>	clawhub search "<query>"	Browse web or tessl skill search
Install format	npx skills add <owner/repo@skill>	clawhub install <slug>	tessl install <skill-name>
Versioning	Git-based (owner/repo@skill)	Semantic versioning (vX.Y.Z)	Semantic versioning
Browse at	https://skills.sh/	https://clawhub.ai/	https://tessl.io/registry/discover
CLI required?	No (npx)	Yes (clawhub)	Optional (tessl)
Updates	npx skills update	clawhub update <slug> or --all	tessl update

Common Skill Categories

When searching, consider these common categories:

Category	Example Queries
Web Development	react, nextjs, typescript, css, tailwind
Testing	testing, jest, playwright, e2e
DevOps	deploy, docker, kubernetes, ci-cd
Documentation	docs, readme, changelog, api-docs
Code Quality	review, lint, refactor, best-practices
Design	ui, ux, design-system, accessibility
Productivity	workflow, automation, git

Tips for Effective Searches

1. Search all available registries - Each has unique skills
2. Use specific keywords: "react testing" is better than just "testing"
3. Try alternative terms: If "deploy" doesn't work, try "deployment" or "ci-cd"
4. Check popular sources: Many skills.sh skills come from vercel-labs/agent-skills or ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills
5. For tessl.io: Browse the web interface since CLI search is interactive-only
6. For clawhub: Install CLI first with npm install -g clawhub if not available

When No Skills Are Found

If no relevant skills exist in any available registry:

1. Acknowledge that no existing skill was found
2. Offer to help with the task directly using your general capabilities
3. Suggest the user could create their own skill

Example:

I searched all available registries for skills related to "xyz" but didn't find any matches.
I can still help you with this task directly! Would you like me to proceed?

If this is something you do often, you could create your own skill:
- With skills.sh: npx skills init my-xyz-skill
- With tessl.io: tessl skill new --name "My X Skill" --description "..."

Installing Missing CLIs

If a user wants to use clawhub but doesn't have it installed:

npm install -g clawhub

For tessl.io:

npm install -g tessl
