Agent skills from the Standard Agents team, for
Claude Code, Codex, and any tool that reads SKILL.md packages.
Install any skill with the skills CLI:
npx skills add standardagents/skills@<skill>Add -g to install user-level instead of per-project. Update later with
npx skills update.
| Skill | Invoke | Description |
|---|---|---|
| bro | /bro |
Snap a verbose agent into concise mode — lead with the answer, technical English, no padding. Rules stay active for the session. |
| papercuts | /papercuts |
Post-task retrospective on codebase friction — what made the job harder than it needed to be, reported as a ranked table of concrete fixes. |
Each skill's directory has its own README with usage details.
If Claude Code doesn't see a skill after a global install, the CLI may have skipped the Claude symlink. Create it manually:
ln -s ~/.agents/skills/<skill> ~/.claude/skills/<skill>Or reinstall with the agent forced: npx skills add -g -a claude-code standardagents/skills@<skill>.
