Free skills
Free skills: one starter skill per main shelf — 13 in all — is readable in full with a free account, and every skill's title and opening lines are public. A skill here is a reusable brief: set it up once in your AI and it works as that specialist for every task that follows.
Use one as standing instructions in a Claude Project, a custom GPT or a Gemini Gem. On a plan, every skill also downloads as a SKILL.md that Claude Code loads by itself — what that means.

Questions
What is an AI skill?
A standing instruction that turns a general chat model into a specialist — a code reviewer, a brief writer, a claim checker — for every message that follows, instead of a one-off request.
How do I get the free skills?
Create a free account (an email, no card). The starter skills then open in full; every other skill still shows its title and opening lines.
Can I use them in Claude Code?
Yes. Paste one into your instructions, or — on a plan — download it as an Agent Skill (SKILL.md) and save it in .claude/skills so Claude Code loads it by itself.
Why only one per shelf?
It is enough to learn what a skill does in each area. The full shelves — the longer, specialist skills — are what the paid plans are for.
