Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by MoizIbnYousaf on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Browse And Evaluate AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/MoizIbnYousaf/ai-agent-skills.git /tmp/ai-agent-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/ai-agent-skills/skills/browse-and-evaluate .claude/skills/browse-and-evaluate

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Browse And Evaluate in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Browse And Evaluate on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Browse And Evaluate is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Browse And Evaluate

Goal

Find the right skill for a task without flooding the context window or installing blindly.

Guardrails

Always use --fields on list/search/info to keep output small. Default: --fields name,tier,workArea,description.
Always use --dry-run before installing anything.
Never install more than 3 skills at once without explicit user confirmation.
Prefer --format json in non-interactive pipelines. The CLI defaults to JSON when stdout is not a TTY.
Use --limit when browsing large catalogs. Start with --limit 10.

Workflow

Search or browse the catalog.

bash
npx ai-agent-skills search <query> --fields name,tier,workArea,description --limit 10

Get details on a candidate.

bash
npx ai-agent-skills info <skill-name> --fields name,description,tags,collections,installCommands

Preview the skill content.

bash
npx ai-agent-skills preview <skill-name>

Dry-run the install.

bash
npx ai-agent-skills install <skill-name> --dry-run

Install only after reviewing the dry-run output.

bash
npx ai-agent-skills install <skill-name>

Gotchas

The preview command sanitizes skill content to strip prompt injection patterns. If content looks truncated, check if suspicious patterns were removed.
Collection installs pull multiple skills. Always --list or --dry-run a collection before installing.
Upstream (non-vendored) skills require a network fetch at install time. Use --dry-run to verify the source is reachable.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Browse And Evaluate AI skill do?

Use when exploring the ai-agent-skills catalog to find, compare, and evaluate skills before installing. Always use --fields to limit output size and --dry-run before committing to an install.

Why use Browse And Evaluate on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Browse And Evaluate is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Browse And Evaluate in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/MoizIbnYousaf/ai-agent-skills/tree/main/skills/browse-and-evaluate. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Browse And Evaluate?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Browse And Evaluate?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Browse And Evaluate with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Browse And Evaluate AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by MoizIbnYousaf under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
