Browse related skills at
/category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Gaia 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. Gaia is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category. Learn more at
