Socket is a platform that enables real-time communication and data transfer between applications. Developers use it to build features like live chat, collaborative editing, and real-time dashboards.
Socket is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the integrations sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/socket/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user wants to interact with Socket data.
The Socket skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. 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.
