Claude skills for Extend
4 skills in the bank are filed under Extend. They are grouped here because they compete for the same jobs — which is the reason an agent reaching for one of them sometimes gets another.
- Claude APIanthropics/skillsBuilding something that calls Claude: model ids, pricing, streaming, tool use, prompt caching, token counting. Reach for it before guessing an API detail from memory.
- MCP Builderanthropics/skillsBuild an MCP server so Claude can reach an outside service or API through tools you designed. The plumbing between Claude and someone else's system.
- Skill Creatoranthropics/skillsMaking skills, not using them: package a workflow you keep repeating into a skill, then test whether it actually fires when it should.
- Slack GIF Creatoranthropics/skillsAnimated GIFs built to survive Slack's size and dimension limits. For when someone says make me a GIF of X doing Y.
Knowing the Extend list is the easy half. Picking from it under time pressure is the game.
