Open, reusable skills for Claude. One Git repo, structured as a Claude plugin marketplace, so the same skills work in both Cowork (desktop app) and Claude Code (CLI), and installing is one command. Use them as-is, or fork the repo and swap in your own.

Install (once)

Claude Code (recommended)

/plugin marketplace add reidworks-io/reidworks-skills
/plugin install reidworks-core@reidworks-skills

One command syncs every skill in this repo. Updates land on the next /plugin marketplace update. Works on any account.

Cowork (personal account)

Cowork's "Add marketplace" flow is org/team-only. On a personal account you install each skill individually as a ZIP:

1. Open the latest release: Latest skills.
2. Download the ZIP for the skill you want (e.g. long-run.zip).
3. In Cowork open Customize → Skills.
4. Click the + at the top of the Skills sidebar → + Create skill → Upload a skill.
5. Upload the ZIP. The skill appears under Personal skills and triggers automatically when its description matches a task.

Repeat per skill. ZIPs are auto-rebuilt on every push to main, so re-downloading picks up new versions.

Refs: Use skills in Claude · Use plugins in Claude. Skills you upload are saved locally to your machine, so you run these steps once per device.

Cowork (Team or Enterprise plan)

On a Team or Enterprise workspace, the full marketplace install also works inside Cowork: Customize → Plugins → Personal plugins → + → Add marketplace → Add from a repository → paste reidworks-io/reidworks-skills. On a personal account, use the ZIP path above.

Skill catalog

Skill	What it does	When it triggers	Owner
human-voice	Edits/writes external-facing prose so it doesn't read as AI-generated.	Writing or reviewing docs, blog posts, tutorials, public READMEs, customer-facing decks, marketing copy.	mscwilson
long-run	Scaffolds a /loop-driven multi-agent orchestrator that builds a project end-to-end across many cycles. Requires a detailed milestone roadmap first; uses Git as the source of truth and keeps app + docs + marketing colocated.	"kick off an overnight build", "weekend run", "set up the orchestrator harness", "long autonomous build", "let Claude build this while I sleep".	johnmicahreid

Add a row every time you add a skill. The description column is what helps people discover it; keep it sharp.

Everything lives in one plugin (reidworks-core) so a single install gives you every skill. If the library grows large, it can split into themed plugins later (writing/, eng/, sales/) by adding more entries to marketplace.json.

Adding a skill

See CONTRIBUTING.md. Short version: drop a skill folder into plugins/reidworks-core/skills/, add a row to the catalog above, open a PR.
