# Recommended Skills This page collects useful community skill repositories that can extend Hermes, Claude Code, Codex-style agents, and similar local agent workflows. Community skills are third-party code and instructions. Review them before installing, especially when a skill can read API keys, cookies, browser sessions, local files, repositories, shell scripts, package managers, or social media accounts. Useful skill recommendations are welcome. If you find a high-quality skill that should be listed here, please submit a pull request on GitHub with the repository link, usage scenario, and any security notes. ## Maintenance Guidelines - Keep this document in English. Update `skill-recommendations.zh.md` separately for the Chinese version. - Add recommendations under the closest existing category before creating a new category. - Use the same structure for each item: repository link, focus, good-for scenarios, representative skills or capabilities when available, and notes when there are installation, API, or security concerns. - Keep descriptions factual and concise. Prefer information confirmed from the repository README, `SKILL.md`, examples, or package metadata. - Do not paste secrets, private tokens, install commands that auto-execute remote code, or unverifiable marketing claims. - Put security-sensitive skills in context: mention when they can access credentials, browsers, local files, shells, package managers, external APIs, or social accounts. - For unsupported locales, the UI falls back to this English document. ## Security First - Treat every third-party skill as untrusted until reviewed. - Read `SKILL.md`, scripts, hooks, and dependency installers before running. - Be extra careful with skills that post to social media, access browsers, read credentials, install packages, execute shell commands, or send local files to external APIs. - Prefer testing new skills in a disposable profile or sandboxed project first. - Use a security review skill such as SlowMist Agent Security when evaluating unknown repositories, URLs, MCP servers, or skill packages. ## Official And General-Purpose Skills ### Anthropic Official Skills -
