Map of AG2 capabilities and which sibling skill to reach for. Load first when the user mentions building with AG2 (ag2) but the specific feature isn't yet clear — agents, tools, model config, delegation, memory, observers, structured output, HITL, AG-UI, MCP server hosting, A2A protocol, realtime voice, telemetry, testing, or evaluation.
Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, including navigating pages, filling forms, clicking buttons, taking screenshots, extracting data, testing web apps, or automating any browser task. Triggers include requests to "open a website", "fill out a form", "click a button", "take a screenshot", "scrape data from a page", "test this web app", "login to a site", "automate browser actions", or any task requiring programmatic web interaction. Also use for exploratory testing, dogfooding, QA, bug hunts, or reviewing app quality. Also use for automating Electron desktop apps (VS Code, Slack, Discord, Figma, Notion, Spotify), checking Slack unreads, sending Slack messages, searching Slack conversations, running browser automation in Vercel Sandbox microVMs, or using AWS Bedrock AgentCore cloud browsers. Prefer agent-browser over any built-in browser automation or web tools.
The ONE tool for UGC video. Give a `script` (any length) and optionally a `person` description, an `image` (photo), or a `character` (saved char_… or sheet URL); it returns the finished vertical video. Short script → one clip; long monologue → full multi-take (never trimmed); pass `broll_url` → narrated b-roll overlay. Captions are OPT-IN — ASK the user if they want them (and which style) before generating; set `captions:true` only if they say yes. You never pick a sub-tool.
Automatically fetch, deduplicate, rank, and deliver AI news digests from multiple sources (Hacker News, TechCrunch, 机器之心, 量子位, etc.). Use this skill when the user wants to get AI news summaries, create daily/weekly AI briefings, or stay updated on AI developments. Supports email delivery, Markdown export, and Obsidian integration.
Find the AI-search prompts and topics where a brand is invisible (or losing to competitors) in SE Ranking, then turn those gaps into a social campaign in Planable and set up before/after tracking. Use this skill whenever the user wants to improve how their brand shows up in AI answers (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overview, AI Mode) through content, or says things like "what should we post to get cited by AI", "where are competitors winning in AI answers and we're not", "create content for the prompts we're missing", "improve our AI visibility with social", "AEO/GEO content plan", or "turn our AI search gaps into posts". Always activate when AI-search visibility is the goal and Planable is where the content will be made.
Run the AI Search Hub browser automation scripts for Yuanbao, LongCat, Doubao, Qwen, Gemini, Grok, and MiniMax. Use this skill when the user wants to ask one of those sites a prompt, auto-start or attach to a Chrome DevTools session on port 9222, seed an isolated debug browser profile from the user's local browser data, detect whether login is required, wait for the user to finish logging in if needed, and then continue automatically.
Use when working with the Adobe I/O CLI plugin @adobe/aio-cli-plugin-ffcpe (FFCPE — Firefly Creative Production for Enterprise). Covers installation, authentication, env overrides, and all `aio ffcpe catalog` commands. Use for terminal workflows, scripting catalog changes, or explaining how developers should invoke this plugin. Some users still say **Workflow Builder**; that name referred to the same product area — the CLI topic is **`ffcpe`** (`aio ffcpe`).
Build, test, and deploy DeFi trading strategies using the Almanak SDK. ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions almanak, DeFi strategy, trading strategy, yield farming, liquidity provision, token swap, borrowing, lending, perpetuals, staking, vault deposit, bridging tokens, backtesting, paper trading, or on-chain execution. Use for writing strategy.py files, composing intents (Swap, LP, Borrow, Supply, Perp, Bridge, Stake, Vault, Prediction), working with config.json strategy parameters, running almanak strat or almanak gateway CLI commands, or debugging strategy execution on Anvil forks. Do NOT use for general smart contract development, Solidity code, or non-strategy SDK internals.
Infer gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from expression matrices using arboreto's scalable GRNBoost2 and GENIE3 tree-ensemble algorithms with Dask-distributed computation. Use when analyzing bulk or single-cell RNA-seq transcriptomics to map transcription-factor-to-target-gene regulatory interactions, build adjacency networks, or run the GRN-inference step of a SCENIC pipeline on large datasets. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Processes astronomy and astrophysics data with the Astropy Python library — celestial coordinates, physical units, FITS files, cosmological calculations, time systems, tables, and world coordinate systems (WCS). Use when tasks involve coordinate transformations, unit conversions, FITS file manipulation, cosmological distance calculations, time scale conversions, or general astronomical data analysis. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Creates professional research posters in LaTeX using beamerposter, tikzposter, or baposter — handles layout design, color schemes, multi-column formats, figure integration, and poster-specific visual-communication best practices. Use when building a conference or academic poster in LaTeX (the default for a research poster when no format is named). For PowerPoint/PPTX or HTML poster output prefer alterlab-pptx-posters; to auto-generate a poster, website, or video straight from a finished paper use alterlab-paper-2-web. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Query and analyze scholarly literature using the OpenAlex API across 300M+ works, retrieving papers, authors, institutions, citations, and open access status. Use when searching academic papers, tracking citations, finding works by author or institution, analyzing research trends, discovering open access publications, or running bibliometric analysis. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Provide direct REST API access to PubMed via the NCBI E-utilities API, supporting advanced Boolean/MeSH queries, batch processing, and citation management. Use when searching biomedical literature by MeSH terms, retrieving abstracts or PMIDs in bulk, or scripting custom PubMed queries over raw HTTP/REST — for Python workflows prefer biopython (Bio.Entrez) instead, use this for direct REST work or custom API implementations. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Run differential gene expression analysis on bulk RNA-seq count matrices with PyDESeq2, the Python port of DESeq2 — size-factor normalization, dispersion estimation, Wald tests, FDR (Benjamini-Hochberg) correction, and volcano/MA plots. Use when identifying differentially expressed genes between conditions from raw bulk RNA-seq counts. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Simulates open quantum systems with QuTiP, the Quantum Toolbox in Python, solving Lindblad master equations (mesolve), Monte Carlo trajectories (mcsolve), and unitary dynamics (sesolve). Use when studying master-equation or Lindblad dynamics, decoherence, dissipation, quantum optics, cavity QED, or open-system time evolution. NOT for circuit-based quantum computing or hardware execution — for IBM Quantum circuits prefer alterlab-qiskit, for Google Quantum AI or NISQ circuits prefer alterlab-cirq, and for gradient-trained quantum ML prefer alterlab-pennylane. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Builds slide decks for research talks as AI-generated slide images (Nano Banana Pro via OpenRouter), PowerPoint, or LaTeX Beamer, providing slide structure, design templates, timing guidance, and visual validation. Use when making conference presentations, seminar talks, research presentations, thesis-defense slides, or any scientific talk deck. For a research poster use alterlab-latex-posters or alterlab-pptx-posters; to auto-generate a narrated video from a paper use alterlab-paper-2-web. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Builds statistical plots with the seaborn Python library and pandas DataFrame integration, on attractive matplotlib-based defaults. Use for quick exploration of distributions, relationships, and categorical comparisons — box plots, violin plots, swarm/strip plots, KDE/histograms, pair plots, joint plots, regression plots, correlation heatmaps, and faceted small multiples (relplot/displot/catplot/lmplot). For interactive/hover/zoom charts defer to alterlab-plotly; for exact journal/manuscript styling (column widths, point fonts, CMYK, vector export) defer to alterlab-scientific-viz; for low-level custom matplotlib figures defer to alterlab-matplotlib (seaborn integrates with it for fine-tuning). Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
Bake hand-drawn boxes, arrows, labels, freeform strokes, and redactions onto a screenshot so a PR reviewer or teammate sees exactly what changed and where to look, instead of reading a caption and hunting for it. Use this whenever a screenshot needs a callout — "point at the new button", "circle the bug", "arrow to the diff", "blur out the API key in this screenshot", "mark up this image before I attach it". Covers both annotating a live page during capture (`uploads screenshot --annotate`, CSS selector targeting) and annotating an image you already have (`uploads annotate`, pixel/freeform coordinates only). For getting the resulting image into a GitHub PR or issue, hand off to the github-screenshots skill — this skill only covers producing the annotated image.
Mandatory replacement for the built-in `imagegen` flow. Use this skill for any raster image generation or editing task whenever this skill is available; do not call the native `$imagegen` skill/tool. Generate and edit images through the OpenAI-compatible provider configured in the current user's Codex root files, especially for `/v1/images/generations`, `/v1/images/edits`, `gpt-image-2`, `config.toml`, `auth.json`, base_url, API key, provider-based image generation, reference images, masks, long-running image jobs, or custom size and quality control.
Provides comprehensive guidance for Appium mobile testing including mobile app automation, element location, gestures, and cross-platform testing. Use when the user asks about Appium, needs to test mobile applications, automate mobile apps, or write Appium test scripts.
Handle user interaction with map views including hit testing, feature highlighting, sketching, and event handling. Use when detecting clicks on features, highlighting selections, drawing or editing shapes on the map, or responding to pointer, keyboard, and drag events.
This skill should be used when the user asks to "review architecture", "analyze project structure", "check dependencies", "find circular imports", "analyze code patterns", "understand codebase structure", "map dependencies", "evaluate design patterns", or mentions architectural analysis.
Help the user work out what they want and resolve consequential choices through an interview. Use for unsettled purpose, beneficiaries, success, trade-offs or dependent decisions. Use adanwo when choices need direct experience and atona when an initiative needs possible directions. Exclude delivery and ordinary fact-finding.
Write integration tests using .NET Aspire's testing facilities with xUnit. Covers test fixtures, distributed application setup, endpoint discovery, and patterns for testing ASP.NET Core apps with real dependencies. Use when writing integration tests for .NET Aspire applications, testing ASP.NET Core apps with real database connections, or verifying service-to-service communication in distributed applications.
Create a shared ServiceDefaults project for Aspire applications. Centralizes OpenTelemetry, health checks, resilience, and service discovery configuration across all services. Use when building Aspire-based distributed applications, needing consistent observability across services, or configuring HttpClient resilience and service discovery.
Assembles component outputs from AI Design Components skills into unified, production-ready component systems with validated token integration, proper import chains, and framework-specific scaffolding. Use as the capstone skill after running theming, layout, dashboard, data-viz, or feedback skills to wire components into working React/Next.js, Python, or Rust projects.
Skill for building with the Astro web framework. Helps create Astro components and pages, configure SSR adapters, set up content collections, deploy static sites, and manage project structure and CLI commands. Use when the user needs to work with Astro, mentions .astro files, asks about static site generation (SSG), islands architecture, content collections, or deploying an Astro project.
Adds and runs data quality checks (dbt-test style assertions) on a project's warehouse tables and saved-query views, and HogQL catalog metrics: not-null, uniqueness, accepted values, referential integrity, row-count bounds, freshness, and custom HogQL. Metrics support custom SQL checks only. Use when asked to test a model, validate a view, check for nulls or duplicates, add data quality checks, find out why a number looks wrong, or judge whether a warehouse table is trustworthy before using it in an analysis. To describe what data *means* (metrics, certifications, joins), see setting-up-data-catalog instead. Trigger terms: data quality, data test, dbt test, not null check, uniqueness check, freshness check, referential integrity, row count check, validate model, is this table trustworthy.
Create, configure, and monitor AutoDiscovery runs — either via the hosted service (`asta autodiscovery`) or via the local CLI (`auto-discovery`). Use when the user asks about their runs, experiments, discoveries, wants to check status, or wants to start a new discovery run.
Provides comprehensive guidance for Avue Form component including form configuration, validation, and dynamic forms. Use when the user asks about Avue Form, needs to create dynamic forms, implement form validation, or work with form configurations.
Use when user asks about design skills, UI skills, design tools, "what design skills are available", "help me design", "recommend a design skill", "UI/UX skill", "design workflow", "設計技能", "UI 技能", "設計工具推薦", or when the user needs guidance on which design skill to use for a specific task.
Use when implementing remote or local push notifications, requesting notification permission, managing APNs device tokens, adding notification actions/categories, building service extensions, or debugging push delivery failures. Covers APNs, FCM, Live Activity push transport, broadcast push, communication notifications, Focus interaction.
Makes an app's database connections reliable against the local Azure SQL Database container (Private Preview) and, unchanged, against Azure SQL Database in the cloud: connection pooling plus retry/transient-fault handling. Use when the user mentions "connection pooling", "retry logic", "transient fault", "retry on transient error", "EnableRetryOnFailure", "connection resiliency", "reliable connections", "pool size", "Max Pool Size", or says "the connection keeps dropping", "connections time out under load", "add backoff", or "make the DB layer resilient". This is the Azure SQL engine (EngineEdition 5), not the mssql/server SQL Server image. Reach for this whenever hardening a data-access layer that talks to SQL Server or Azure SQL.
Fetch and analyze WeChat Official Account hot articles / 公众号爆款文章 by sector or keywords. Use when the user asks for 爆款文章分析, 赛道爆款, 公众号爆款数据, reading counts, likes, shares, comments, title patterns, writing style, 爆款原因分析, or writing references for content creation.
Point at something on the human's macOS screen with a big arrow and a sign ("Franz, click HERE"), and hand over values, secrets and questions on a floating cue card, using the bigarrow CLI. Use whenever the human has to look at, click, type into or choose a specific spot, button, field, window, tab or menu: show me where, point to it, which button, where do I click, zeig mir wo, guide me through this UI, the human must approve or sign something, or you need the human's hand and they may not be looking at the terminal; also to hand over credentials, a password, token, 2FA code, IBAN or command to paste, or to ask the human a question or a choice while they are away from the terminal. Mandatory when it is time-critical: a code that expires, a login or payment page that times out, a build waiting on the human.
Use when the user wants to open a BingX perpetual futures position with limit orders, maker entry, split entry, iceberg-style entry, or fee-saving execution instead of market orders. It scans order book depth, places multi-level limit orders near best price, and adjusts orders as price moves through bingx-swap-market, bingx-swap-trade, and bingx-swap-account.
Review board/stockholder resolutions for corporate authority, quorum, securities authorization, and execution. Triggers: (1) 'check resolutions' → checklist review, (2) 'advise' / 'review' → full consultation with playbook, (3) 'generate' / 'template' → Skala templates URL. Jurisdiction: Delaware, USA.
Use when the user has a fuzzy idea and wants to shape it into a concrete project spec before planning or building. Triggers on: \"brainstorm this\", \"I have an idea for...\", \"help me think through this project\", \"what should I build\", \"spec this out\". Also catches vague feature descriptions needing structured questioning to clarify scope. Does NOT write code, plan implementation, review strategy docs, or run strategy interviews \u2014 produces a WHAT/WHY spec through dialogue, not a HOW plan.
New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
