Installation

Skills can be added to Claude in several ways depending on your environment.

Claude Code (CLI)

Option 1: Plugin install (recommended)

/plugin marketplace add statik/skills
/plugin install dns-troubleshooter@statik-skills

Option 2: Manual install

Clone this repository and copy skills to your project's .claude/skills/ directory:

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/statik/skills.git

# Copy a skill to your project
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter /path/to/your/project/.claude/skills/

Or add skills globally to ~/.claude/skills/:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/.claude/skills/

Codex CLI

Codex loads skills from $CODEX_HOME/skills (defaults to ~/.codex/skills). Install the skill into that directory:

# Codex requires OPENAI_API_KEY
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key"

mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/.codex/skills/

To run Codex with the skill available:

codex exec "Check if the SPF record for example.com is valid."

OpenCode

OpenCode natively supports skills in the same format. Copy skills to one of these locations:

Project-level (recommended):

# Native skills directory (OpenCode v1.0.190+)
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter /path/to/your/project/skill/

# Or the .opencode directory
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter /path/to/your/project/.opencode/skills/

Global installation:

# XDG config location (Linux/macOS)
mkdir -p ~/.config/opencode/skills
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/.config/opencode/skills/

# Alternative global location
mkdir -p ~/.opencode/skills
cp -r skills/skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/.opencode/skills/

VS Code with GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot supports Agent Skills as of December 2025. Skills can be installed in multiple locations:

Option 1: GitHub Skills directory (recommended)

your-project/
├── .github/
│   └── skills/
│       └── dns-troubleshooter/
│           ├── SKILL.md
│           └── references/
│               └── spf.md
└── ... your code

Option 2: Claude Skills directory (also supported)

Copilot automatically discovers skills in .claude/skills/:

your-project/
├── .claude/
│   └── skills/
│       └── dns-troubleshooter/
│           ├── SKILL.md
│           └── references/
│               └── spf.md
└── ... your code

Note: Ensure the chat.useAgentSkills setting is enabled in VS Code.

Claude.app (Desktop)

Skills can be added to Claude.app by placing them in your user skills directory:

macOS:

mkdir -p ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/skills
cp -r skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/skills/

Windows:

mkdir -p "$env:APPDATA\Claude\skills"
Copy-Item -Recurse skills\dns-troubleshooter "$env:APPDATA\Claude\skills\"

Linux:

mkdir -p ~/.config/claude/skills
cp -r skills/dns-troubleshooter ~/.config/claude/skills/

Using Skills

Once installed, skills are automatically available to Claude. Simply ask Claude to perform tasks related to the skill's domain:

DNS Troubleshooter examples:

• "Why am I getting NXDOMAIN for example.com?"
• "Check if my SPF record is configured correctly"
• "Compare what my local DNS says vs the authoritative server for mysite.com"
• "Are there any conflicting DNS records for api.example.com?"

Claude will use the skill's knowledge and workflows to help diagnose and resolve issues.
