Awesome Claude Skills — 1000+ Skills & Plugins
Stars: 63.8K ★ | License: Apache 2.0 Repository: ComposioHQ/awesome-claude-skills
A comprehensive and curated list of 1000+ production-ready Claude Skills and Plugins for Claude.ai, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, and more.
What Are Claude Skills?
Skills are reusable instruction packages — a folder containing SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter and markdown instructions. They load progressively: ~100 tokens per skill at session start, full body (~5,000 tokens) only when the agent decides relevance.
Skills are not MCP servers and not tools:
- MCP — how agents connect to external systems
- Tools — individual functions an agent invokes
- Skills — the workflow: what to do, in what order, with what guardrails
Connect Claude to 500+ Apps
The connect-apps plugin (Composio) lets Claude perform real actions — send emails, create issues, post to Slack. Uses Composio under the hood.
