Crypto Skill
Cryptographic utilities — hashing, base64, JWT decode/verify, password hashing (argon2id/bcrypt/scrypt/pbkdf2), encryption (Fernet/AES-GCM/ChaCha20), key derivation (PBKDF2/HKDF/scrypt), password generation, UUIDs, HMAC. NOT for cryptocurrency prices — use stocks-skill with crypto command for Bitcoin/Ethereum. Subcommands: hash / b64 / jwt / jwt-verify / password / uuid / hmac / phash / pverify / encrypt / decrypt / kdf. Trigger when user asks hash, sha256, md5, base64, JWT, decode token, verify JWT, encrypt, decrypt, generate password, סיסמה אקראית, uuid, hmac, argon2, bcrypt, PBKDF2, KDF, או מבקש קידוד/פענוח של מחרוזת. Uses stdlib + cryptography + PyJWT + argon2-cffi + bcrypt. No network, no API keys.

When should I use the Crypto Skill skill?
Use Crypto Skill when your Claude Code task falls under the Security category — specifically in the identity access area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Crypto Skill" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/security/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Crypto Skill skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Crypto Skill is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Security category. Learn more at
