What is skillpilot?

Each skill is a battle-tested prompt that turns Claude into a domain expert:

• code-reviewer → Senior code review with security + quality analysis
• tdd → Test-driven development workflow
• seo-audit → Full SEO audit of your content
• financial-analyst → Financial analysis and SaaS metrics
• incident-response → SEV1–SEV4 incident triage and response

Installing Skills into Claude Code

When you run skillpilot install <skill>, the skill is copied to ~/.claude/commands/<skill>.md. Claude Code automatically picks it up as a slash command:

skillpilot install tdd
# Now use /tdd in Claude Code

Install an entire category:

skillpilot install-all --category engineering
# All 48 engineering skills available as /skill-name in Claude Code

Install everything:

skillpilot install-all
# All 228 skills available in Claude Code

---

Running Skills via API

For running skills directly from the terminal without Claude Code:

# Configure your Anthropic API key (once)
skillpilot init

# Run any skill
skillpilot run code-reviewer --input "def add(a, b): return a + b"

# Pipe code from a file
skillpilot run security-pen-testing --input "$(cat app.py)"

# Interactive mode (paste code, then Ctrl+D)
skillpilot run tdd

Skills use Claude Haiku by default — fast and cost-effective.
