skills-search
This skill should be used when users want to search, discover, install, or manage Claude Code skills from the CCPM registry. Triggers include requests like "find skills for PDF", "search for code review skills", "install cloudflare-troubleshooting", "list my installed skills", "what does skill-creator do", or any mention of finding/installing/managing Claude Code skills or plugins.

Discovery
89%Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.
This is a well-constructed description with strong trigger term coverage and clear 'when to use' guidance. Its main weakness is that the capability verbs (search, discover, install, manage) are somewhat generic and could benefit from more specific concrete actions. The description effectively carves out a distinct niche around CCPM registry operations.
Suggestions
Add more specific concrete actions beyond generic verbs, e.g., 'browse skill metadata and ratings', 'resolve skill dependencies', 'check for skill updates', 'view skill documentation' to improve specificity.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Specificity | The description names the domain (CCPM registry) and lists actions (search, discover, install, manage), but these are somewhat generic verbs. It doesn't detail specific concrete capabilities like 'browse skill metadata', 'resolve dependencies', or 'update installed skills'. | 2 / 3 |
Completeness | Clearly answers both 'what' (search, discover, install, manage skills from CCPM registry) and 'when' (explicit trigger examples and a 'Use when' equivalent opening clause). The description opens with 'This skill should be used when...' which serves as explicit trigger guidance. | 3 / 3 |
Trigger Term Quality | Excellent coverage of natural trigger terms: 'find skills for PDF', 'search for code review skills', 'install cloudflare-troubleshooting', 'list my installed skills', 'what does skill-creator do', plus general mentions of 'finding/installing/managing Claude Code skills or plugins'. These are phrases users would naturally say. | 3 / 3 |
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk | Highly distinctive — the CCPM registry is a specific niche, and the triggers are clearly scoped to skill management operations. Unlikely to conflict with other skills since it targets a unique domain (Claude Code skill/plugin management). | 3 / 3 |

Implementation
77%Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.
This is a well-structured, highly actionable skill that clearly maps user intents to executable commands with good error handling and workflow sequencing. Its main weaknesses are moderate verbosity (the MCP server section and some explanatory text could be trimmed) and the monolithic structure that could benefit from splitting reference material into separate files. Overall it serves its purpose effectively as a behavioral directive for managing skills via ccpm.
Suggestions
Remove or significantly trim the MCP Server Alternative section — it's tangential to the skill's core purpose and adds tokens without aiding Claude's primary task.
Consider extracting the full Command Reference into a separate COMMANDS.md file and keeping only the intent mapping table in the main skill body.
| Dimension | Reasoning | Score |
|---|---|---|
Conciseness | Generally efficient with good use of tables and structured sections, but includes some unnecessary content like the MCP server section and explanatory text that could be trimmed. The 'Both this skill and the MCP server wrap the same ccpm CLI' explanation is unnecessary context for Claude. | 2 / 3 |
Actionability | Highly actionable with concrete, executable bash commands for every intent. The intent mapping table provides clear command-to-action mappings, and the command reference includes real flags and options. The bootstrap check is copy-paste ready. | 3 / 3 |
Workflow Clarity | Clear sequencing: bootstrap first, then match intent, then execute, then summarize and suggest next steps. The execution rules provide explicit behavioral directives (always execute directly, handle errors with fallback to npx, post-install reminder). Error recovery paths are well-defined in the troubleshooting section. | 3 / 3 |
Progressive Disclosure | Content is well-organized with clear sections and headers, but everything is in a single monolithic file with no bundle files for reference. The command reference section and MCP server configuration could be split into separate reference files to keep the main skill leaner. | 2 / 3 |
