Agent Skills That Work Everywhere

An agent skill is like an app for your AI. It's a packaged bundle of instructions and executable scripts that teaches your agent how to do something specific — merge PDFs, analyze spreadsheets, generate images, scrape websites, and hundreds more.

Without skills, your agent can only work with what it already knows. With skills, it can discover new capabilities on demand and run real code in a secure cloud sandbox to actually get things done — not just tell you how.

The best part: skills you add to SkillzDrive work in Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and any other compatible client. One skill, every tool, no extra setup. Learn more at claude.com/skills.

This video explains what skills are and why they're a game-changer:

Once a skill is in your Drive, your agent discovers and uses it automatically. Here's the setup:

1. Connect SkillzDrive to your AI client. Go to your Get Setup page, copy the config block, and paste it into your client's MCP settings (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.).
2. Install the guide skill. Search for skillzdrive-mcp-guide and import it to your drive. This teaches your agent all 20 tools and workflows automatically.
3. Add skills to your Drive. Browse the Marketplace and click “Add to Drive” on any skill you want.
4. Just ask your agent. Say something like “merge these two PDFs” or “analyze this CSV file.” Your agent will search your available skills, find the right one, and run it — all in a secure cloud sandbox.

You don't need to name the skill or remember what it's called. Your agent handles discovery and execution automatically.

Yes! SkillzDrive exposes 20 MCP tools that let your agent manage your entire skill library through conversation. Your agent can:

• Browse and import — Discover skills from the marketplace and import them to your drive.
• Organize — Create collections, toggle skills on/off, and remove what you don't need.
• Upload — Upload new skills from local files using the upload-to-skillzdrive skill.
• Export — Download skills or entire collections as ZIP bundles.

Install the skillzdrive-mcp-guide skill and your agent will know how to do all of this automatically.

Yes! There are several ways to create skills on SkillzDrive:

• Upload a ZIP file — Package your skill documentation (a SKILL.md file) and any executable scripts into a ZIP and upload it from your Dashboard.
• Import from GitHub — Point SkillzDrive at a public GitHub repo and we'll import the skill automatically.
• Remix an existing skill — Find a public skill you like, remix it into your Drive, and customize it from the built-in Explorer with a visual file tree and code editor.

Every skill you add gets automatically enriched with AI-generated descriptions, tags, and optimized documentation so your agents can discover and use it effectively.

That's the plan. SkillzDrive is building toward a creator economy for agent skills:

• Public skills are free for everyone. Share your work, build a reputation, and climb the Leaderboard.
• Premium skills let you set a credit cost per use. Every time someone runs your skill, you earn credits. We're building out the payout system now during beta.

During the beta period, focus on creating great skills, gathering ratings and reviews, and building usage. Creators with strong community traction will be first in line when payouts go live.

We offer a free tier with credits to get started. Every new account comes with starter credits so you can try skills immediately. When you need more, credit packs are available from the Packages page at a flat rate of 1 credit = $0.01.

Many skills in the marketplace are completely free to use. Premium skills set by their creators cost credits per execution — the price is always visible on the skill card before you run it.

Skills marked for local execution are always free. Your agent downloads the script and runs it on your machine — no sandbox, no credits charged.

Cloud execution (default): The script runs in an isolated cloud sandbox — a secure container with its own filesystem, network access, and pre-installed dependencies. Your agent sends input, the script runs in the cloud, and the results come back. The sandbox is destroyed after use, so there's no risk to your system.

Local execution (free): Some skills are designed to run on your machine. Your agent downloads the script and executes it locally. This is free (no credits), gives full filesystem access, and is ideal for tasks like uploading files or running simple utilities.

Every skill is automatically scanned before it can enter your drive. We run a multi-phase security analysis that checks for vulnerabilities, malicious patterns, and unsafe behavior, then assign a safety grade from A (no known risks) to F (critical risk).

The scan combines industry-standard dependency vulnerability detection, static code analysis, an AI-powered skill audit that looks for prompt injection and data exfiltration patterns, and — when issues are found — an expert AI review that evaluates whether the skill is safe to use and provides a clear recommendation.

Safety grades and scan results are visible everywhere: on marketplace cards, in your drive, in MCP tool responses, and when sharing with teammates. When a skill is updated on GitHub, it's automatically re-scanned so the grade stays current.

Yes! SkillzDrive supports both teams and direct sharing:

• Teams — Create a team, invite members, and add skills to the team's drive. Every active team member automatically gets access to those skills across all their AI clients.
• Sharing — Share any skill directly with another user via link or email. Once they accept, the skill appears in their drive.

Manage teams and shares from the Teams page in your dashboard.
