External Electron Apps is a production-ready Claude Code skill (quality score 70/100) in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/external-electron-apps/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the task is to control a local desktop app on the user's machine, not this repo's own Electron app. Triggers: "desktop Slack app", "connect to Electron app", "remote-debugging-port", "CDP desktop app", "automate VS Code desktop app".
The External Electron Apps skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 15,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/external-electron-apps curl -L https://claudskills.com/skills/external-electron-apps/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.claude/skills/external-electron-apps/SKILL.md
