Skills directory > Browse skills built by Replit and our partners, and learn how to install them in a project or your workspace. The skills directory is a catalog of ready-made skills you can install and use right away — built by Replit and by our partners. Install one, try it, then edit it to fit how your team actually works. For what a skill is and how Agent loads it, see Agent Skills(/features/agent/skills). To make a skill available across your whole workspace, see Agent Customization(/features/agent/agent-customization). Install a skill You can add a skill from the directory in a few ways: In chat — click the + button next to the chat input, select Use a skill, and choose one. The skill applies to that message only, with nothing installed in your project. In a project — open the Skills pane in the Project Editor, select the Discover tab, find a skill, and click Install. Installed skills live in your project's `/.agents/skills` directory and persist across chats. From the command line — install a skill with the skills CLI(https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills): ```bash theme={null} npx skills <skill> -a replit ``` Skills in the Replit skill picker are audited for safety. Skills installed from external sources are not. Because a skill is instructions Agent follows, always review an external skill before installing it — see Agent skills(/learn/agent-skills) for what to check. Replit skills Replit ships with pre-defined skills available from the Use a skill picker in chat and from the new-project starting-point picker. These work in every project without installation. Descriptions appear inline when you open the picker. | Category | Skills | | --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------
