# Insert instructions below
The official, public repository of Agent Skills maintained by Anthropic. If you
are new to skills, this is the canonical place to see how a well-formed
SKILL.md is structured and what a production-quality skill looks like.
What you get
A curated set of skills covering document creation and manipulation (PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX) plus example skills that demonstrate the folder-of-instructions pattern Claude loads dynamically.
Why it is here
It is the baseline every other skill is measured against. We list it official
and featured because it is the highest-trust starting point - but note that
“official” earns a trust bump in our grade, not an automatic A. The grade still
reflects real maintenance and adoption signals once synced.
Install
Clone the repo and copy the skill folder you want into ~/.claude/skills/
(personal) or .claude/skills/ (project). Claude Code discovers them
automatically.
