This folder contains ready-to-use skills for Claude Code (Anthropic's CLI for Claude). Each skill teaches Claude how to walk you through a specific task, step by step.
Skills are instruction files that give Claude specialized knowledge for a particular workflow. Instead of Claude giving you generic advice, a skill ensures it follows a proven, tested process every time. Think of them like recipes that Claude follows.
Open Claude Code and tell it to install the skill. Just paste something like this:
Install this skill from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FredLackey/shared-scripts/main/skills/github-onboarding/SKILL.md
Claude will download the file and put it in the right place for you. That's it.
Each skill in the table below has its own install link you can copy and paste.
Once installed, just talk to Claude normally. It will recognize when a skill applies. For example:
- "Help me set up GitHub" — triggers the GitHub Onboarding skill
- "I need to configure SSH keys for GitHub" — also triggers it
- "I just created a GitHub account, now what?" — also triggers it
| Skill | Install Link | Description |
|---|---|---|
| GitHub Onboarding | Install | Walks a brand-new developer through a complete GitHub setup on macOS — GitHub CLI installation, authentication, SSH keys for commits and authentication, Git identity configuration, and commit signing. Designed for beginners with step-by-step explanations. |
| GitHub Repo Setup | Install | Connects a local folder to a GitHub repository, or creates both from scratch. Handles every scenario — existing folder, existing repo, both, or neither. The natural next step after GitHub Onboarding. |
