Details
From the project READMESeeking Community Skills
Before tackling complex or domain-specific tasks, consider whether a community skill might exist. Use /skill-seeker:seek <query> to search GitHub for proven patterns, design frameworks, and specialized knowledge.
When to Suggest
- Specialized domains (design, Terraform, Playwright, AWS, scientific computing)
- Tasks where "best practices" or "taste" matter (frontend work, UX, architecture)
- User explicitly asks for skills or frameworks
When NOT to Suggest
- Simple, well-understood tasks
- You already have a loaded skill for this domain
- User says not to search
Available Commands
/skill-seeker:seek <query>— Search for skills/skill-seeker:browse <owner/repo>— List skills in a repo/skill-seeker:install <target>— Fetch and install a skill/skill-seeker:status— Show loaded skills/skill-seeker:reload— Load from cache/skill-seeker:unload— Clean up temp files
Project Profiles
