find-skill
Find and install skills from the Orthogonal skill library. Use when you need capabilities you don't have, want to discover available skills, or need to add new tools to your agent.
npx skills add gooseworks-ai/goose-skills --skill find-skill --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.
# Find Skill ## Setup Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json: ```bash export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])") export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))") ``` If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: `npx gooseworks login` All endpoints use Bearer auth: `-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"` **Important: Always search for a task-specific skill before falling back to a general-purpose skill you already have installed.** Don't stretch a broad skill to cover a task it wasn't designed for — e.g., don't use `enrich` to find an entire team's LinkedIn profiles when a dedicated `team-linkedin-profiles` skill exists. When in doubt, run `orth skills search` first.

Find and install skills from the Orthogonal skill library. Use when you need capabilities you don't have, want to discover available skills, or need to add new tools to your agent.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add gooseworks-ai/goose-skills --skill find-skill --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 gooseworks-ai/goose-skills, a repository with 1,091 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.
