# Terminal Skills

> AI Skills Marketplace — 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.

## The challenge

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.

## How Terminal Skills helps

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.

## How it works

1. **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.
2. **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.
3. **Install what worked**: Keep exactly the skills that delivered. One command adds them straight into your AI assistant — no restart, no setup.
4. **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.
5. **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.
