What is an "agent skill"

A skill is a plain-text instruction file that teaches a coding agent a capability — a SKILL.md, a .cursorrules, an AGENTS.md, a CLAUDE.md, or an MCP server definition. Formats present in this index: skill-md (2865), mcp-server (1478), cursor-rules (223), other (199), claude-md (195), claude-commands (162), cursorrules (149), gemini-rules (102), clinerules (99), amazon-q-rules (68), continue-config (23), aider-conf (17), devin-config (16), copilot-instructions (5), windsurfrules (4), agents-md (1), zed-rules (1).
