What Are Cursor / Claude Skills?
What Agent Skills do, how they differ from MCP, and how to discover official and community Skill repositories on GEXNO.
What Skills solve
Skills package reusable workflows, conventions and tool usage into a form agents can load on demand, making them steadier and more professional on specific tasks instead of starting from a blank prompt every time.
How they relate to MCP
MCP is about "connecting to external systems"; Skills are about "teaching the agent how to work". They are often used together: MCP provides capabilities, Skills orchestrate how to use them.
Where to start
Start with the official Anthropic Skills examples and the open specification, then browse Awesome collections and community directories, installing what you need.
