Installieren

Wählen Sie Ihren Client

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Öffne Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Nach dem Speichern neu starten.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor nutzt das gleiche mcpServers-Schema wie Claude Desktop. Projektkonfiguration schlägt die globale.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Klicken Sie auf das MCP-Servers-Symbol in der Cline-Seitenleiste, dann "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Gleiche Struktur wie Claude Desktop. Windsurf neu starten zum Übernehmen.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "awesome-claude-skill-2",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue nutzt ein Array von Serverobjekten statt einer Map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills",
          "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

In context_servers hinzufügen. Zed lädt beim Speichern neu.

claude mcp add awesome-claude-skill-2 -- git clone https://github.com/karanb192/awesome-claude-skills ~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills

Einzeiler. Prüfen mit claude mcp list. Entfernen mit claude mcp remove.

Fehlerbehebung

Häufige Fehler und Lösungen

Skill not invoked — Claude answers without consulting the catalog

Reference it explicitly: 'Use awesome-claude-skills to find...'.

Prüfen: ls ~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills/SKILL.md

SKILL.md frontmatter wrong

The catalog repo is large — ensure the clone completed fully.

Prüfen: head ~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills/SKILL.md

Wrong trigger keywords — Claude invents a skill instead of listing real ones

Say 'list real skills from the awesome-claude-skills catalog', not 'find me a skill that does X'.

Alternativen

awesome-claude-skills vs. andere

Alternative	Wann stattdessen	Kompromiss
anthropics/skills	You only want first-party Anthropic-authored skills	Smaller surface, higher baseline quality
FreeMCPLab play directory	You want skills alongside MCPs in one catalog	Fewer skills than karanb192's list, but combined with MCP coverage
