Encode API is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the science-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/encode-api/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
The Encode API skill is built for researchers, data scientists, academics, and analysts working with complex data and scientific literature. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 56,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/encode-api curl -L https://claudskills.com/skills/encode-api/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.claude/skills/encode-api/SKILL.md
Or just download SKILL.md directly and drop it into ~/.claude/skills/encode-api/. Claude Code auto-discovers it on next session.
Skills live at ~/.claude/skills/encode-api/SKILL.md on macOS/Linux, or %USERPROFILE%\.claude\skills\encode-api\SKILL.md on Windows. See the full install guide for step-by-step instructions.
The ClaudSkills desktop app installs any skill directly into ~/.claude/skills/ with one click — no terminal required. Pro starts at $9/mo or $149 lifetime.
