Stop chatting with Claude. Start commanding it. Claude Skills are reusable instruction files — type a slash command, get 10× the output without ever repeating the same context again. Here is every skill from the viral video, explained screen by screen, now with infographics and the exact prompts to use.
A "skill" is a saved .skill file — a zipped SKILL.md with the full instruction set Claude loads on demand. Install once, invoke forever.
Think of a Claude Skill as a saved personality setting — a .md file that tells Claude how to behave every time you invoke it. Instead of typing long instructions every session, you install a skill once and call it with a slash command.
Skills live inside Claude Code. They auto-trigger when they detect certain phrases, or you invoke them manually. Each one is a portable .skill file — a zip archive containing a SKILL.md with the full instruction set.
The result: consistent, expert-level output without rewriting your prompts from scratch. A content creator, a developer, and a complete beginner all benefit immediately.
+ icon → Skills → Manage Skillsclaude skill install <url>/caveman, /humanizer …Skills are just text + metadata. You can read every one before installing — nothing is hidden.
Drop a .skill file in. The full instruction set lives on disk — not in your prompt.
Type /skill-name or just say a trigger phrase. Claude loads the instructions silently.
Consistent, structured, expert-level results — every time, with zero re-prompting.
The win is compounding: the longer instruction set never re-enters your context window, so you save tokens and get more reliable output.
All 10 skills sorted into four jobs. Find your lane, then jump to the cards below.
The skill that builds all other skills — ships free with Claude Code.
skill-creatorAnthropic's official, pre-installed skill. It works like a smart interview — tell it what you want to automate, it asks clarifying questions, then writes a complete .skill file for you. No coding, no prompt engineering. It's the starting point for everything custom.
He typed /skill-creator and said he wanted to scan YouTube channels for brand-deal opportunities. The skill asked which industries, what timeframe, what output format — then generated a complete YouTube Brand Scout skill in seconds.

Andrej Karpathy's coding rules baked into every project.
karpathy-guidelinesA .md shared by Andrej Karpathy (ex-Tesla AI Director, OpenAI co-founder) outlining the most common ways AI gets coding wrong. Install it, invoke before any build, and Claude audits your project against the rules.
Ran on an existing project: "Here are 4 Karpathy violations and how to fix each." Saved hours of review.

Claude talks like a caveman — and saves up to 75% of your tokens.
cavemanWhen you're burning session credits, switch on Caveman Mode. Claude drops articles, uses ultra-short synonyms, and strips filler — maximum information, minimum tokens. Full technical accuracy stays; only fluff goes.
"Sure! The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by a token-expiry misconfiguration in your authentication middleware…"
"Token expiry uses < not <=. Fix:" ✅
Illustrative token use per reply (lower = cheaper)
Directional, not benchmarked — actual savings depend on the task. Ultra ≈ 75% fewer tokens than a normal reply.

Turn a half-formed idea into a scoped, structured plan.
expand-and-contractYou have an idea but don't know what to build first. It asks targeted questions, then sorts every possible feature into four buckets — so you know exactly what to build on Day 1 and what to park.
"A premium house-help service for ultra-wealthy families in India." It asked services, pricing, GTM, positioning — then a clean Core/Nice-to-have/Out breakdown in minutes.
