Skill Scout
Salvaged from a stale community PR, this automates the search-before-you-build workflow for Claude Code skills. When you're about to create a new skill, it searches your local install, marketplace sources, GitHub, and the web to surface existing matches ranked by relevance and trustworthiness. The vetting step is smart: it reads external SKILL.md files for unexpected shell commands or credential handling before you fork anything sketchy. Honestly, this should probably run automatically before any skill creation prompt, but making it explicit means you can skip it when you actually want to build from scratch. Nice addition to the everything-claude-code ecosystem.

Skill Scout
Use this skill before creating a new skill. The goal is to avoid duplicating existing community or marketplace work, while still vetting anything external before adoption.
Source: salvaged from stale community PR #1232 by redminwang.
When to Use
- The user says "create a skill", "build a skill", "make a skill", or "new skill".
- The user asks "is there a skill for X?" or "does a skill exist that does Y?"
- The user describes a workflow and you are about to suggest creating a new skill.
- The user wants to fork or extend an existing skill.
If the user explicitly says to skip search or create from scratch, acknowledge that and proceed with the requested creation workflow.
How It Works
Step 1 - Capture Intent
Extract:
- The task the skill should perform.
- The trigger conditions for using it.
- The domain, tools, frameworks, or data sources involved.
- Three to five search keywords plus useful synonyms.
Step 2 - Search Local Sources
Search installed and marketplace skill names first. Local sources are preferred because they are already part of the user's environment.
