Terminal Skills
Watch it work. Then install it.
Terminal Skills is an app store of ready-made abilities for AI coding assistants, with a live proving ground so you can watch a skill solve your real task before you ever add it.
AI assistants like Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Cursor are capable, but generic — they don't automatically know your exact workflow. Terminal Skills is a growing library of ready-to-use “skills” that teach those assistants specific jobs. What makes it different: instead of installing blindly and hoping, you drop in your own task and files and watch a skill actually do the work — then add only the ones that delivered.
AI coding assistants are powerful but generic — they don't reliably know the exact steps for your specific task, so results are hit-or-miss and you keep re-explaining yourself. And when you find an add-on that claims to help, you install it on blind faith, with no way to know whether it actually works or is even safe.
Terminal Skills gives your assistant proven, reusable abilities you can try before you trust. Describe a real task, attach your files, and watch a matching skill run live and hand back finished deliverables — then install exactly what worked with a single command. Every skill can also be safety-scanned first.
Up and running in a few simple steps
Describe your real task
Type what you actually need done and attach any files — like a messy sales spreadsheet you want checked and turned into a report.
Watch a skill prove itself
The playground picks the skills that match and runs them live in a safe, isolated space. You watch the work happen and download the finished files.
Install what worked
Keep exactly the skills that delivered. One command adds them straight into your AI assistant — no restart, no setup.
Check anything you didn’t write
Before adding an outside skill, run a free safety scan that flags anything sketchy and reports what the skill actually did.
Create your own when there’s a gap
If nothing in the catalog fits, the assistant can research and write a brand-new skill for you — and even share it back to the community.
Key features
Try before you trust
A live proving ground runs a skill against your own task and files, so you see real results before installing anything.
Works with your assistant
One library that supports Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, and Cursor — it auto-detects which you use.
1,000+ ready-made skills
A big, growing catalog spanning automation, business, content, data, design, development, and more — free and open source.
Install in one command
Add a skill instantly with a single command; it's available to your assistant right away, no restart needed.
Built-in safety scan
Every skill can be scanned for anything harmful and gets a clear verdict before it ever runs — free, so you never install blind.
Create new skills on demand
When the catalog has a gap, the assistant researches the topic and writes a fresh skill for you, then shares it back if you want.
