Anthropic's official PDF skill: read, extract, merge, split, fill forms and generate PDFs with scripts the agent runs locally.
skillgild install pdf
License: Source-available · Created by Anthropic · The project lists support for Claude Code, Claude.ai (built in), Claude API
A community skill: it installs from its own repository and your agent runs the project's instructions locally with your own model. SkillGild lists it and credits the author; nothing runs on SkillGild.
With the SkillGild CLI (needs git). It clones anthropics/skills and copies the skill folder into the right place for your agent; use --agent codex, cursor or gemini-cli for other clients.

Run skillgild install pdf --agent claude-code: the SkillGild CLI clones anthropics/skills and copies the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills/pdf. You can also use the project's own commands shown above, or copy the folder yourself. Use --agent codex, cursor or gemini-cli for other clients.
PDF skill is one of Anthropic's document skills, which are source-available rather than open source: you can install and use them, but not redistribute them. SkillGild links to the source and does not host a copy.
The project lists Claude Code, Claude.ai (built in), Claude API. It is a plain Agent Skills folder (SKILL.md plus supporting files), so any client that reads that format can load it.
No. PDF skill is a community skill: your agent runs its instructions locally with your own model, and SkillGild lists, credits and installs it. Hosted SkillGild skills are marked differently and run through the SkillGild MCP server.
Python with the libraries the skill's scripts list. Everything else is the usual: a coding agent that loads skills and the folder installed where that agent looks for it.
Setup steps and worked examples for this kind of skill.
Stops the agent from burying the answer. Ten output rules: lead with the next action, number multi-step work, end with one concrete next step, suppress tangents, restate state each turn, give time estimates in minutes, make wins visible, report errors matter-of-factly, cap lists at five, and no prea
Turns one hard question into five independent expert opinions plus a verdict.
Notion's official Claude Code plugin: the Notion MCP server plus four skills (Knowledge Capture, Meeting Intelligence, Research Documentation, Spec to Implementation) and slash commands for search, page creation, database queries and tasks.
Official skills from Obsidian's CEO that teach agents to work correctly with a vault: Obsidian-flavoured Markdown (wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties), Bases (views, filters, formulas), JSON Canvas files, the Obsidian CLI, defuddle for clean web-to-markdown extraction, and knap for templated note generation.
Anthropic's official document skill for creating and editing PowerPoint decks: it teaches Claude the pptx structure, layouts, slide masters and the scripts to build or modify .pptx files programmatically.
Anthropic's official document skill for Word files: create .docx documents with proper styles, headings, tables and tracked changes, or edit existing ones in place.
Publication-quality figures for ML papers: picks the chart type for your results, writes the matplotlib or seaborn code and checks its colors for contrast. Use it to compare methods, baselines or ablations in a chart, to check whether text and figure colors meet a contrast ratio, or to plan an architecture diagram from your method section.
Karpathy's observations on how LLMs fail at coding, codified into four rules the agent follows: think before coding (state assumptions, ask instead of guessing), simplicity first, surgical changes, and goal-driven execution.
Builds an animation from scratch the way a design engineer would: it chooses the curve, duration and properties, keeps motion off the main thread where it matters, and explains the choice.
Translates Apple's interface and motion principles into web code: spring curves, gesture physics, translucent materials and typography, as explained in Apple's WWDC design sessions.
