Agent skills
Skills you can use with AI coding agents, indexed from public GitHub repositories.
-
gguf-quantization
GGUF format and llama.cpp quantization for efficient CPU/GPU inference. Use when deploying models on consumer hardware, Apple Silicon, or when needing flexible quantization from 2-8 bit without GPU requirements.

-
serving-llms-vllm
Serves LLMs with high throughput using vLLM's PagedAttention and continuous batching. Use when deploying production LLM APIs, optimizing inference latency/throughput, or serving models with limited GPU memory. Supports OpenAI-compatible endpoints, quantization (GPTQ/AWQ/FP8), and tensor parallelism.

guidance
Control LLM output with regex and grammars, guarantee valid JSON/XML/code generation, enforce structured formats, and build multi-step workflows with Guidance - Microsoft Research's constrained generation framework

-
llama-cpp
Runs LLM inference on CPU, Apple Silicon, and consumer GPUs without NVIDIA hardware. Use for edge deployment, M1/M2/M3 Macs, AMD/Intel GPUs, or when CUDA is unavailable. Supports GGUF quantization (1.5-8 bit) for reduced memory and 4-10× speedup vs PyTorch on CPU.

-
outlines
Guarantee valid JSON/XML/code structure during generation, use Pydantic models for type-safe outputs, support local models (Transformers, vLLM), and maximize inference speed with Outlines - dottxt.ai's structured generation library

-
find-nearby
Find nearby places (restaurants, cafes, bars, pharmacies, etc.) using OpenStreetMap. Works with coordinates, addresses, cities, zip codes, or Telegram location pins. No API keys needed.

-
songsee
Generate spectrograms and audio feature visualizations (mel, chroma, MFCC, tempogram, etc.) from audio files via CLI. Useful for audio analysis, music production debugging, and visual documentation.

-
youtube-content
Fetch YouTube video transcripts and transform them into structured content (chapters, summaries, threads, blog posts). Use when the user shares a YouTube URL or video link, asks to summarize a video, requests a transcript, or wants to extract and reformat content from any YouTube video.

-
arxiv
Search and retrieve academic papers from arXiv using their free REST API. No API key needed. Search by keyword, author, category, or ID. Combine with web_extract or the ocr-and-documents skill to read full paper content.

-
research-paper-writing
End-to-end pipeline for writing ML/AI research papers — from experiment design through analysis, drafting, revision, and submission. Covers NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, COLM. Integrates automated experiment monitoring, statistical analysis, iterative writing, and citation verification.

-
blogwatcher
Monitor blogs and RSS/Atom feeds for updates using the blogwatcher-cli tool. Add blogs, scan for new articles, track read status, and filter by category.

-
test-driven-development
Use when implementing any feature or bugfix, before writing implementation code. Enforces RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle with test-first approach.
NousResearch/hermes-agent 56,643
-
requesting-code-review
Pre-commit verification pipeline — static security scan, baseline-aware quality gates, independent reviewer subagent, and auto-fix loop. Use after code changes and before committing, pushing, or opening a PR.

-
writing-plans
Use when you have a spec or requirements for a multi-step task. Creates comprehensive implementation plans with bite-sized tasks, exact file paths, and complete code examples.
NousResearch/hermes-agent 56,643
-
systematic-debugging
Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior. 4-phase root cause investigation — NO fixes without understanding the problem first.
NousResearch/hermes-agent 56,643
-
subagent-driven-development
Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks. Dispatches fresh delegate_task per task with two-stage review (spec compliance then code quality).
NousResearch/hermes-agent 56,643
-
plan
Plan mode for Hermes — inspect context, write a markdown plan into the active workspace's `.hermes/plans/` directory, and do not execute the work.
