Claude-Skills

by borghei · borghei/Claude-Skills

245-skill mega-bundle for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and 8 other coding agents — 653 Python tools, 32 agents, 26 slash commands in one repo.

A large aggregation of skills, agents, slash commands, and Python tools that aims to work across many coding agent surfaces (Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and more). Closer to a platform install than a focused skill — worth treating as a menu, not a full activation.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Restart after saving.

Cursor uses the same mcpServers schema as Claude Desktop. Project config wins over global.

  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-skill-4": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [

      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Click the MCP Servers icon in the Cline sidebar, then "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-skill-4": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/Claude-Skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Same shape as Claude Desktop. Restart Windsurf to pick up changes.

~/.continue/config.json

  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "claude-skill-4",

        "clone",
        "https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills",
        "~/.claude/skills/Claude-Skills"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue uses an array of server objects rather than a map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json
{
  "context_servers": {
    "claude-skill-4": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills",
          "~/.claude/skills/Claude-Skills"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Add to context_servers. Zed hot-reloads on save.

claude mcp add claude-skill-4 -- git clone https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills ~/.claude/skills/Claude-Skills

One-liner. Verify with claude mcp list. Remove with claude mcp remove.

Use Cases

Real-world ways to use Claude-Skills

Browse the catalog and pick only the skills you need

👤 Claude Code users who don't want 245 skills auto-loading ⏱ ~30 min intermediate

When to use: You just want the good parts — specific agents or commands — not the whole kitchen sink.

Prerequisites
  • Skill cloned — git clone https://github.com/borghei/Claude-Skills ~/.claude/skills/Claude-Skills (then cherry-pick)
Flow
  1. Explore
    Use Claude-Skills. List what's in skills/ and agents/ with a one-line description per entry.✓ Copied
    → Navigable index
  2. Copy what you want
    Copy just the database-migrator agent and the api-scaffold slash command to a lean personal skills dir.✓ Copied
    → cp commands run; your own dir stays minimal

Outcome: You benefit from the bundle without dragging in 240 skills you'll never use.

Pitfalls
  • Installing the whole bundle and bloating your environment — Treat it as a source to cherry-pick from
Combine with: filesystem

Use the slash commands for common dev ops

👤 Daily Claude Code drivers ⏱ ~20 min beginner

When to use: You repeat workflows (create PR template, scaffold API, etc.) and want one-liners.

Flow
  1. Browse the commands
    Use Claude-Skills. What slash commands are in commands/? One-liner each.✓ Copied
    → Indexed command list
  2. Install the ones you want
    Install /scaffold-api and /pr-template only.✓ Copied
    → Links or copies placed in your config dir

Outcome: Keyboard shortcuts for your most-repeated workflows.

Combinations

Pair with other MCPs for X10 leverage

claude-skill-4 + filesystem

Selectively move pieces into your own managed skill dir

Copy the database-migrator agent files into ~/.claude/agents/ and leave the rest behind.✓ Copied

Tip
Don't load all 245 skills at once — cherry-pick to avoid context bloat.

Security

Permissions, secrets, blast radius

Credential storage: Varies per included piece
Data egress: Varies — inspect each piece before use

Troubleshooting

Common errors and fixes

Claude Code slow to start after install

Too many skills loading at once; cherry-pick instead of installing whole bundle

Verify: ls ~/.claude/skills/ | wc -l
Something doesn't behave like docs say

Pieces in a mega-bundle get less individual testing. Inspect the specific SKILL.md.
