But I'd wager Anthropic has done the best job so far of democratizing and simplifying this level skills creation, from engineers to every-day users. Once you move someone from just chats to building frameworks in your solution, you dramatically increase long-term stickiness.
That said this skill idea has been so popular that everyone is adopting it. OpenCode, mistral … Not ChatGPT yet but I am ready to bet they will (as they have done in the past for MCP when it became the de facto standard)
Thank you for curating this list of amazing Claude skills from creators I follow and learn from, Daria!
I came here for the skills for developers and tech teams, and I’m definitely stealing Jeff’s frontend design skill. But really, every skill here has so much to learn from and use in my own work.
I also second Kamil’s idea, wouldn’t it be amazing to get to know all these awesome leaders in the field?
Love this collection of Skills for various use cases, Daria. Thank you for putting it together so coherently and providing useful guidelines in the end for first-time users!
This is exactly the kind of resource I wish existed when I started building skills. The variety here shows something important: skills aren’t just “better prompts.” They’re the beginning of context architecture.
What I’ve found building my own: the real unlock isn’t the skill file itself. It’s the thinking you do to create it. Writing down “how do I actually make business cases?” forced me to articulate a process I’d been running on autopilot for years.
Skills are documentation disguised as AI configuration. 🧠
Thanks for pulling this together and including me, Daria!
Well speaking for my own I can definitely say they’re already being used to manage my business. If they don’t last long term, that’s probably because something better has come out and skills are suddenly an outdated concept. Wouldn’t surprise me the way things are going!
Oh my god, so many Claude skills in one place, so many ideas. Thank you so much Daria, for organizing it so well and above all providing me an opportunity to be a part of it. Amazing! Can't wait to try some of these and adapt them up for my system too. Thank you again.
So many fellow creators, we should have a zoom party 🎉
Great idea!
That’s a great idea
Virtual prosecco instead of coffee?
What a compilation of amazing ideas 💡 well done :)
Thanks for joining, Joel! 💪🏼
I love how you put this together Daria great job. 2026 is definitely gonna be the year of Claude and this is a great start for a lot of people.
Agree! Though I’m seeing all kinds of tools add “skills” - feels like Claude may only be on top for so long
There's always the next tool!

Good ideas travel quickly
100% agree
Totally agree!
PS. did you notice I used your substack-toc skill?
I did 🤌
Built it to inspire others, ended up stealing ideas myself 😆
great compilation Daria!
A lot of interesting use cases on Skills right here, glad to be part of this, super helpful!
Glad you joined, Wyndo!

I knooow, there’s so much good stuff in here. Agree, a virtual call would be really fun.
Thanks for joining, Jenny 🤗
Karo - that Skill Builder / YAML killer!!! 🔥 Can't wait to get that one rolling...
Yeeesssss!
Wow, I’ll be spending all day in this post creating new skills! Thank you for doing this!
Haha, just like everyone here!

So glad you joined! 🤗 The whole point at the end was to encourage people to experiment with it. It’s too good not to.

Same here. Definitely wish I had this resource when I started too. Thanks for joining, Zain!
A very useful reference list. Though the real test is which ones survive actual use versus which ones only sound good on paper.
Curious to see which ones get adopted long term 😱
Well speaking for my own I can definitely say they’re already being used to manage my business. If they don’t last long term, that’s probably because something better has come out and skills are suddenly an outdated concept. Wouldn’t surprise me the way things are going!
The ones that last are the ones you adapt to your own workflows, not copy as-is :)
@Daria you should fork a version of Claudia and give her some of these nuggets as skills

Super job pulling these Skills together in a single post, Daria!! The creativity on display by 23 creators is indeed mind blowing 🤯
With so many great people in one place, ideas multiply fast. Thanks for being part of it, Dee!
Daria, today had a plan. Then this post showed up. Guess what I’m doing now 😂
Haha I don’t need to guess 😂 I know!
Brilliant post. I'll definitely be adopting some of these. LOVE Claude skills!
They're hard not love! and thanks for joining us 🤗
I think of Skills as my editor and my assistant. Repeatable tasks that I need daily. And I upgrade them the minute I see how I can make them better! 🔥
that's the way to go!💣

It sparked so many ideas for all of us. Appreciate you being part of it!
