Claude Skills We Run

Claude skills we installed, read and tested: what each does, what it needs, and where it falls short.

A skill is a folder of instructions (and sometimes scripts) that an AI coding assistant loads when a task matches. We vetted these by cloning and reading them; the ones with code we ran. Stars and push dates were re-read from GitHub on 2026-10-15. Skills run code on your machine, so read before you install.

  • watch: lets the assistant “see” a video.
  • avoid-ai-writing: audits and edits out AI writing patterns.
  • nano-banana: image generation and editing through Google’s Gemini API.
  • capcut-edit: edit CapCut project files from the command line.
  • ElevenLabs skills: voice, music, sound effects and transcription.
