## How this list was made

- Candidates: the 80 agent skills in the DevOps & cloud category on appsgit.
- Ranked by GitHub stars (installs on skills.sh break ties), at most one entry per repository so one project cannot fill the list.
- The catalog itself only lists skills with a valid SKILL.md, a license and a commit in the last six months, from repositories with 100+ stars or a skills.sh listing.

## FAQ

### Do these agent skills need an API key?

4 of the 10 picks need an API key or token, for example Caveman Setup; 6 run without one. Each page on appsgit lists the environment variables a agent skill expects.

### Which coding agents work with these skills?

Claude Code (all), Codex (7 of 10), Cursor (5 of 10) and Gemini CLI (3 of 10). The client list comes from each project's published compatibility data; appsgit does not guess it.

### Are any of these agent skills official?

Yes: Agentcore, Build MCP Server and Vercel Composition Patterns and 1 more are published by the vendor themselves.

### How do I install an agent skill?

A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file that you copy into your agent's skills directory, or install from a plugin marketplace when the repository is one. Every skill page on appsgit shows the install command.
