ask-ai
Use external AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek) when agent encounters difficult problems. Trigger when: (1) User explicitly asks to consult AI, (2) Agent cannot solve the problem independently, (3) Knowledge gaps or needing deeper explanations, (4) Complex problems requiring multi-round reasoning. Provides two modes: Ask Mode (ask user first) and Trust Mode (auto ask).
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ask-ai --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

Encounter difficult problem → Ask user: "This is tricky. Want me to ask GPT?" 2. User agrees → Open AI assistant 3. Get answer → Report to user **Trust Mode:** 1. Encounter difficult problem → Automatically open AI 2. Get answer → Solve directly ## Communication - Asking: "Let me ask GPT for help. Is that okay?" - Auto: "I'll ask GPT for help.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill ask-ai --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
