    Why documentation skills work in Zed

    Each skill on this page is a SKILL.md file built for documentation work and confirmed to run in Zed. Install one into ~/.config/zed/skills/, start a new session, and Zed follows the workflow the creator encoded instead of improvising from a short prompt.

    Listings are ranked by installs, upvotes and reviews, so what surfaces first is what other Zed users actually keep. Free and paid skills compete on the same page, and every listing shows its security scan result before you download anything.
