search-skillslisted

Search the open agent-skills ecosystem (skills.sh / `npx skills`) for a skill that already exists, check whether it is trustworthy, and install it on request. Use on 'find a skill for X', 'is there a skill that…', 'gibt es dafür einen Skill', or when a capability is missing and someone has probably already built it. To write one instead, use `author-skills`; for the prompts.chat registry, `install-skill`.

Nothing found → broaden once, then report that nothing was found. **Never name a skill that was not in the results.** 4. **Verify before recommending.** Search rank is not endorsement: - installs — prefer 1k+, treat anything under 100 with suspicion - source — `vercel-labs`, `anthropics`, `microsoft` are known quantities; an unknown author is not disqualifying, but say so out loud - the repo — under 100 stars means read the SKILL.md before installing anything 5. **Present** name, what it does, install count, source, the e
