A comprehensive and curated list of 1000+ production ready and practical Claude Skills and Plugins for enhancing productivity across usecases on not just Claude.ai, Claude Code, but also across coding agents like Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity and more.

Give your skills real-world actions

Skills tell your agent how to work. An MCP Gateway gives it secure access to the tools it needs.

Composio MCP Gateway provides a single MCP endpoint for 1,000+ integrations with built-in authentication, team-based access controls, audit logs, and production-ready reliability.


Quickstart: Connect Claude to 1000+ Apps

The connect-apps plugin lets Claude perform real actions - send emails, create issues, post to Slack. It handles auth and connects to 1000+ apps using Composio under the hood.

1. Install the Plugin

claude --plugin-dir ./connect-apps-plugin

2. Run Setup

/connect-apps:setup

Paste your API key when asked. (Get a free key at dashboard.composio.dev)

3. Restart & Try It

exit
claude

Want skills that do more than generate text? Claude can send emails, create issues, post to Slack, and take actions across 1000+ apps. See how →

If you receive the email, Claude is now connected to 1000+ apps.

What Are Claude Skills?

Claude Skills are reusable instruction packages that teach an AI agent how to handle a specific class of tasks. Each skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter (name, description) and Markdown instructions, optionally bundled with scripts, references, and assets. Anthropic introduced the format in October 2025 and released it as an open standard in December 2025; it's now supported by Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, and Windsurf.

Skills load progressively. At session start, the agent sees only each skill's name and description — roughly 100 tokens per skill. The full SKILL.md body (typically under 5,000 tokens) loads only when the agent decides the skill is relevant to the current task. Auxiliary files in scripts/ and references/ load on demand. This is what lets a single agent host hundreds of skills without bloating its context window.

Skills are not MCP servers and not tools. MCP defines how an agent connects to external systems — auth, transport, tool discovery. Tools are the individual functions an agent invokes. Skills define the workflow — what to do, in what order, with what guardrails — once the agent has the connections and tools it needs. In production, all three layers run together: MCP for access, tools for actions, skills for behavior.

Searching Database…

这是什么?这是一份精心整理的目录,收录了 1000+ 个可用于生产环境的 Claude 技能和插件,用于提升 Claude.ai、Claude Code,以及 Codex、Cursor、Gemini CLI、Antigravity 等其他编程智能体中的工作效率。
这是需要安装的工具包,还是只是可以浏览的技能文件目录?它是一份精选目录,本身不是可安装的软件包。每个列出的条目都是一个指令包,即一个文件夹,其中包含带有 YAML frontmatter 的 SKILL.md 文件,还可以选择性地包含脚本、参考资料和资源文件。你可以将它复制或添加到自己智能体的技能目录中。
我该如何开始使用这些技能?在 README 中浏览按类别整理的技能列表,然后按照所选技能自己的说明操作(有些需要运行类似 'npx skills add chrome-relay' 的命令,其他的则安装为 Claude Code 插件)。内置的 Connect 插件需要你先安装,运行设置,粘贴你的 Composio API 密钥,然后重启。
哪些 AI 编程智能体真正支持这种技能格式?Claude Code、Claude.ai、Claude API、OpenAI Codex、Cursor、Gemini CLI、Antigravity 和 Windsurf 都支持 SKILL.md 格式。
技能和 MCP 服务器或工具是同一回事吗?不是。MCP 负责把智能体连接到外部系统,工具是智能体调用的各个具体函数;技能只是在这些之上定义工作流程逻辑。要让 Connect 这样的技能真正跨应用执行操作,还需要单独的 Composio API 密钥。
这份列表是如何组织的?技能按类别分组,包括文档处理、开发与代码工具、数据与分析、商业与营销、沟通与写作、创意与媒体、效率与组织、协作与项目管理、安全与系统,以及通过 Composio 实现的应用自动化。
为什么技能是逐步加载的,而不是一次性全部加载?会话开始时,智能体只能看到每个技能的名称和描述(约 100 个 token);完整的 SKILL.md 正文(通常少于 5,000 个 token)以及任何脚本或参考资料,只有在智能体判断该技能相关时才会加载。因此数百个技能可以共存,而不会撑爆上下文窗口。
技能格式是什么时候成为开放标准的?Anthropic 于 2025 年 10 月推出 SKILL.md 格式,并于 2025 年 12 月将其作为开放标准发布。
Composio MCP 网关在普通技能之上增加了什么?它为智能体提供一个统一的 MCP 端点,覆盖 1,000+ 个应用集成,并内置身份验证、团队访问控制、审计日志和生产级可靠性。因此像 Connect 这样的技能能够真正发送邮件或在 Slack 上发帖,而不只是描述该怎么做。
