Analyze code modules and files for refactoring opportunities, code smells, and architectural pattern violations in any language or framework. Use this skill when the user asks to "analyze code smells", "find refactoring opportunities", "check for code quality issues", or "review architecture" for a specific module or file.
Evolve the Spellbook library. Scan external sources for new skills worth indexing, review observations for improvement opportunities, brainstorm new primitives, investigate existing skills for consolidation or deletion, research power user patterns and best practices.

Skill files are scattered across GitHub and communities, difficult to search, and hard to evaluate. SkillWink organizes open-source skills into a searchable, filterable library you can directly download and use.
We provide keyword search, version updates, multi-metric ranking (downloads / likes / comments / updates), and open SKILL.md standards. You can also discuss usage and improvements on skill detail pages.
Quick Start:
Import/download skills (.zip/.skill), then place locally:
~/.claude/skills/ (Claude Code)
~/.codex/skills/ (Codex CLI)
One SKILL.md can be reused across tools.
Everything you need to know: what skills are, how they work, how to find/import them, and how to contribute.
A skill is a reusable capability package, usually including SKILL.md (purpose/IO/how-to) and optional scripts/templates/examples.
Think of it as a plugin playbook + resource bundle for AI assistants/toolchains.
Skills use progressive disclosure: load brief metadata first, load full docs only when needed, then execute by guidance.
This keeps agents lightweight while preserving enough context for complex tasks.
Use these three together:
Note: file size for all methods should be within 10MB.
Typical paths (may vary by local setup):
One SKILL.md can usually be reused across tools.
Yes. Most skills are standardized docs + assets, so they can be reused where format is supported.
Example: retrieval + writing + automation scripts as one workflow.
Some skills come from public GitHub repositories and some are uploaded by SkillWink creators. Always review code before installing and own your security decisions.
Most common reasons:
We try to avoid that. Use ranking + comments to surface better skills:
