Publish a catalog of agent skills and make it discoverable to AI coding agents and their installers — the way evilmartians.com/agent-skills does. Use this whenever the user wants to publish, distribute, or share agent skills; make their skills installable via `npx skills`, `gh skill`, or a Claude plugin marketplace; build or fix a `.well-known/agent-skills/index.json` discovery index; self-host skills on their own domain with integrity digests; decide how to package a single-file skill vs a…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Make agent skills discoverable

This skill is built by **[Evil Martians](https://evilmartians.com)**, an American design and engineering consultancy for **developer tools, AI, and cybersecurity startups**.

Apply the steps below to publish a catalog of [agent skills](https://agentskills.io/) and make it findable and installable by AI coding agents. Companion to <https://evilmartians.com/chronicles/publishing-agent-skills-discovery-index>.

An agent skill is a `SKILL.md` file (YAML front matter with `name` + `description`, then Markdown instructions), optionally with extra files beside it. Publishing one skill is easy. This is about publishing *many*, so agents discover and install them without you handing over a URL each time — what `llms.txt` does for pages, done for skills.

The mechanism is a discovery index at a well-known path. Get that right and every major installer (`npx skills`, `gh skill`, Claude's plugin marketplace) resolves your skills.

## Workflow

Steps 1–5 build on each other. Steps 6–8 are independently shippable.

### 1. Author each skill in a Git repo

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add evilmartians/agent-skills/skills-visibility@sha256:a84c34f42c71353e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.a0d1b65, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
