Robotics Agent Skills — Testing skill for Claude Code

🤖 Robotics Skill Store

A curated collection of SKILL.md files for AI agents working on robotics software development. Each skill follows the Anthropic skill format with YAML frontmatter, actionable patterns, real code examples, and documented anti-patterns.

How Agents Use These Skills

In Claude Code

Copy or symlink the skills you need into your project's `.claude/skills/` directory:

# Copy specific skills into your robotics project
cp -r /path/to/robotics-agent-skills/skills/ros2 .claude/skills/
cp -r /path/to/robotics-agent-skills/skills/robot-bringup .claude/skills/

# Or symlink to avoid duplication
ln -s /path/to/robotics-agent-skills/skills/ros2 .claude/skills/ros2

Claude Code auto-discovers SKILL.md files in `.claude/skills/` and triggers them based on the YAML `description` field.

In Claude Projects

Place the skill directories in your project's `/mnt/skills/user/` directory. The agent will auto-detect and reference them based on the YAML `description` field.

In Custom Agent Frameworks

Load the relevant SKILL.md as system prompt context when the agent encounters a matching task:

# Example: Agent skill loader
def load_skill(task_description: str) -> str:
    skills = {
