Install
Each tab says whether it installs commit 145e517, the one we checked, or the latest version.
OpenCode also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Goose also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Windsurf (Devin Desktop) also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Zed also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Roo Code also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Factory Droid also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Junie also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
Amp also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.
No install command here reaches Kiro. Copy the skill's folder into .kiro/skills/ in your project, or ~/.kiro/skills/ for all your projects. ThinkInAIXYZ/deepchat/resources/skills/mcp-builder (opens in a new tab)
Antigravity also looks in .agents/skills/, so the Any agent steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Antigravity looks.
Cline also looks in .claude/skills/, so the Claude Code steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Cline looks.

From the files and frontmatter at commit 145e517. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.
Pattern check
Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit 145e517 · 3 Nov 2026
We checked every text file in this skill, at commit 145e517 on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check
Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.
Agent Skills specPasses
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Note
Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: reference/evaluation.md (602 lines), reference/mcp_best_practices.md (250 lines), reference/node_mcp_server.md (970 lines) and reference/python_mcp_server.md (719 lines). B5
Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
- Note
Claude CodePasses
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: reference/evaluation.md (602 lines), reference/mcp_best_practices.md (250 lines), reference/node_mcp_server.md (970 lines) and reference/python_mcp_server.md (719 lines). B5
Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
- Note
Claude apps & API uploadPasses
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
- Note
The description is 277 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.

Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
- Note
- OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes
- VS Code & CopilotPasses
