heilcheng/awesome-agent-skills reference
A community-curated awesome-list of agent skills, tutorials, and guides. Maintained by Hailey Cheng with a companion website at agent-skill.co. Multi-language README (EN, ZH-CN, ZH-TW, JA, KO, ES). Covers official skill directories, community skills, quality standards, and compatible agents (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Antigravity, etc.). Does not contain SKILL.md files itself -- it is a directory/index pointing to external skill repos.

Summary
A community-curated awesome-list of agent skills, tutorials, and guides. Maintained by Hailey Cheng with a companion website at agent-skill.co. Multi-language README (EN, ZH-CN, ZH-TW, JA, KO, ES). Covers official skill directories, community skills, quality standards, and compatible agents (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Antigravity, etc.). Does not contain SKILL.md files itself -- it is a directory/index pointing to external skill repos.
Assessment
Primarily valuable as a discovery surface and competitive intelligence source. The curated categorization (AI Platforms, Cloud & Infrastructure, Developer Tools, Google Ecosystem, Business/Productivity, Security, Vector Databases, Marketing, Context Engineering) maps well to babysitter plugin/specialization domains. The quality standards section and compatible-agent matrix are useful references for skill authoring guidelines.
Extraction Priority
- Low
- Rationale: No executable skills or processes to extract. Value is as a discovery feed for the
assimilate-popular-workflowsandcatalog-babysitter-usersskills, and as a reference for how the broader ecosystem categorizes agent skills.
Processes
None directly extractable. The categorization taxonomy could inform process library organization.
Plugin Ideas
- **Skill Discovery Feed plugin**: Periodically scrape awesome-list repos (like this one) to surface new skills for assimilation into the babysitter process library. Category: knowledge management.
Patterns
- Multi-language README pattern for international reach
- Awesome-list as skill discovery hub with companion website
- Quality standards section defining what makes a good skill (useful reference for babysitter skill validation)
