# Skills Catalog

The Skills Catalog lets you install skills other people have published instead of writing your own. Open it at **Settings → Skills → Catalog**.

For writing your own skills, see [Skills](/skills/).

## Install a skill

1. Open the catalog.
2. Browse the built-in sources — the Anthropic skills repo and the ClawdHub community registry — or search.
3. Pick a skill and install it.
4. Choose where to install it: for everything you do, or just the current project.

If a skill with the same name already exists, OpenChamber asks what to do — skip it, overwrite it, or decide per skill.

## Add your own source

You can add any Git repository as a source using its `owner/repo` name or a full Git URL. Private repositories need access set up on your machine (an SSH key or saved credentials); if a source can't authenticate, the catalog says so rather than failing silently.
