A search and discovery platform for AI agent “skills.” SkillsMP (skillsmp.com) automatically collects agent skills published on GitHub and lets you browse them sorted by category, star count, and last update. Its main focus is Agent Skills — markdown packages (SKILL.md) that bundle procedures and knowledge for tools such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, and ChatGPT. It also offers occupation-based browsing and a REST API you can call from your own code. The interface supports nine languages including Japanese, and the service is free to use. It is run on a community basis, centered on the GitHub account Godi13.
Key Features
- Automatic collection and indexing from GitHub: Skill definitions in public repositories are collected and indexed automatically, so you can survey them in one place instead of hunting through individual repositories
- Sorting by category, stars, and update date: In addition to purpose-based categories, you can sort by star count or most recently updated, making it easier to tell abandoned skills from actively maintained ones
- Occupation-based browsing: Filtering by occupation is built on the U.S. Department of Labor SOC classification. Searching from the angle of “skills used in my line of work” is what sets it apart from plain keyword search
- Language filter for skill content: Beyond the interface language, you can filter by the language a skill is written in (Japanese, English, Chinese, and so on), which helps when you only want Japanese-language skills
- REST API: A keyword search REST API is published and can be called anonymously up to a daily limit. Registering a free API key raises that limit
- Nine-language interface: A Japanese page (skillsmp.com/ja) is available, so you can navigate categories and occupation names without relying on English

Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Lets you search scattered agent skills from a single place, with filtering that fits your goal better than GitHub search
- Every feature is free, and you can search without creating an account. The API can be tried on the free tier alone
- Occupation-based browsing gives newcomers an entry point even when they do not yet know what is possible
- A Japanese interface and a Japanese-content filter keep the path open for Japanese-speaking users
- Update dates and star counts let you check freshness and support, so you can avoid unmaintained skills
⚠️ Cons
- Because the source is public GitHub repositories, quality varies widely. Being listed is not a guarantee that a skill works, so you need to read it before adopting it
- You are loading third-party instructions into your agent, so verifying the safety of the instructions and any scripts is up to you
- The project is community-run, so you should not expect a corporate support desk or anything resembling an SLA
- The API centers on keyword search; complex queries and write operations are not available
- The stated number of listed skills differs depending on where you look on the site, so treat the scale as a rough indicator

Who Is It For
- People who have just started with Claude Code or Codex CLI and want to grasp what skills already exist
- People looking for skills close to their own job or workflow but who cannot think of the right keywords
- People who want to prioritize agent skills written in Japanese
- Developers who want to gather existing implementations as references before writing their own skill
- Anyone who wants to embed skill search into their own tool or dashboard through the API
Summary
Agent Skills Marketplace is a free discovery platform that automatically collects agent skills scattered across GitHub and makes them searchable in one place. Its practical strengths are the occupation-based angle on top of category, star count, and update date, plus multilingual support including Japanese. At the same time, since the source is public repositories, you cannot simply trust what you find — reading the SKILL.md before bringing it into your environment remains an essential step. It is best positioned as a tool that streamlines the “finding” part of the job.
