A curated index of 1000+ skills, plus one genuinely unique connect-apps plugin
ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills
A list maintained by Composio at 75k stars with an Apache-2.0 badge in the README. About 31 first-party skill directories physically exist here while the index references 864 SKILL.md files, and most of the difference is links out to external repositories. Coverage explicitly extends beyond Claude.ai and Claude Code to Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Antigravity.
Our takeThere is no one-liner that installs this repo; use it as a discovery layer. A list answers what exists, not what is worth running. The part you cannot get elsewhere is connect-apps-plugin: a single MCP endpoint to 1000+ integrations with authentication, team-level ACLs and audit logs, which is exactly the governance problem enterprises hit when agents touch SaaS.

Composio's awesome-claude-skills is a curated index of "1000+ production ready and practical Claude Skills and Plugins", at 75,385 stars / 8,735 forks with an Apache-2.0 badge in the README. Coverage explicitly extends beyond Claude.ai and Claude Code to coding agents including Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Antigravity.
Set expectations first: there is no one-liner that installs this whole repo. About 31 first-party skill directories physically exist here, while the index references 864 SKILL.md files — most of the difference is links out to external repositories. So the correct use is as a discovery layer: find candidates here, then go read each project's README, licence and maintenance state. That gap is precisely why this site exists — a list answers "what exists", not "what is worth running".
The first-party skills are genuinely usable
The bundled skills are not filler. Several groups are worth reading on their own:
| Area | Directories |
|---|---|
| Documents & design | document-skills, canvas-design, theme-factory, brand-guidelines, artifacts-builder |
| Engineering | mcp-builder, webapp-testing, changelog-generator, skill-creator, template-skill |
| Growth & marketing | competitive-ads-extractor, twitter-algorithm-optimizer, lead-research-assistant, content-research-writer, domain-name-brainstormer |
| Everyday ops | file-organizer, invoice-organizer, meeting-insights-analyzer, internal-comms, tailored-resume-generator, image-enhancer, video-downloader |
Note that skill-creator and template-skill overlap with same-named skills in Anthropic's official repo. That is not a plagiarism story, it is the honest state of the ecosystem: the handful of foundational capabilities have already been reimplemented several times over. Pick whichever one is actively maintained.
The genuinely unique part: the connect-apps plugin
The list is replaceable. The connect-apps-plugin shipped alongside it is the thing you cannot get elsewhere in this repo. Its argument: skills tell an agent how to work, but acting for real requires tool access. connect-apps exposes a single MCP endpoint over the Composio MCP Gateway to 1,000+ integrations, with built-in authentication, team-based access controls and audit logs.
# Let Claude actually send email / open issues / post to Slack

/connect-apps:setupThe value is not "connects to many apps" — everyone in the MCP ecosystem claims that — it is auth and permission governance. The blocker for agents touching SaaS inside a company was never the protocol; it is whose token it is, what it may do, and whether you can audit it afterwards. ACLs plus audit logs map straight onto that.
The low-friction way to use it
- Install connect-apps first if your agent needs real side effects, then pick domain skills;
- Treat the index as keyword scanning rather than clicking through — there is no human quality tier among the 864 SKILL.md entries, and star counts are not in the list;
- For entries pointing at external repos, verify the licence before shipping. The first-party directories are Apache-2.0; the indexed third parties each differ.
