I built Skly, a marketplace where you can buy and sell skills for AI agents. Think of it as an app store for agent workflows.
Skills work with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other AI tools. They follow the open Agent Skills format (agentskills.io). Each skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file that contains instructions, plus optional scripts and resources.
The problem I kept encountering is that people are creating amazing prompts, workflows, and agent configurations, but there’s no good way to share or discover them. You often end up copy-pasting from Twitter threads or searching through GitHub repositories.
Skly gives creators a place to publish and sell their skills while allowing users to find and install them in seconds.
Here are some things that might interest this crowd:
- Skills use progressive disclosure. Agents only load metadata at startup and activate full instructions on demand.
- The format is open and spec-driven. It is not locked to any platform.
- Both free and paid skills are supported.
I would love feedback from HN. What skills would you want to see? What would make this useful for your workflow?
