About this skill
What does the writing-skills skill do?

Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add GanyuanRan/Aegis --skill writing-skills --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 GanyuanRan/Aegis, a repository with 902 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?
