    Five skills, every session upgraded

    The reel gave you the names. This gives you the setup: what each skill does, the exact command to install it, the first thing to run, and the one gotcha to dodge. Install them once and they work across every project.

    01

    Find Skills

    Searches 4,800+ skills from 14 sources and installs the one you want. Plus the flag that stops it touching your other agents.

    02

    Superpowers

    A whole engineering method in one install: planning, test-first coding, debugging and code review, all firing automatically.

    03

    Claude Mem

    Memory between sessions. Install once, restart Claude Code, and your last session's context shows up on its own.

    04

    Impeccable

    45 design rules and 23 commands that stop Claude's front ends looking generic. Global install covers every project.

    05

    Task Observer

    Watches how you work, spots your patterns, and improves your other skills for you. Sharper the more you use it.

    I'm Tom. I run Perch, where we build custom profitability dashboards for Shopify brands. I write about what AI actually unlocks for people who build things, one tool and one session at a time. This guide is the setup I covered on IG, written out so you can follow it step by step.

    FAQ

    Do I need all five?

    No. Each skill works on its own. If you only want memory between sessions, install Claude Mem and nothing else. The guide shows you the order I'd add them in if you do want the full stack.

    Do I need to install these per project?

    No, that's the point. Install them once globally and they work across every project. The guide flags the one skill (Task Observer) that defaults to per-project and tells you how to move it global.

    Which one do I install first?

    Find Skills. Once it's in, you can search and install the rest from inside Claude Code with a single command. It's the meta-tool that makes grabbing the others easy.

    Will these slow Claude Code down?

    Not noticeably. Superpowers adds a planning step before builds, which takes a few seconds but saves a lot of back-and-forth. The others run in the background or on demand.

    Do these work with Cursor or Windsurf?

    This guide is written for Claude Code specifically. Some skills may work in other editors, Find Skills actually installs to every agent it detects, but the guide covers the Claude Code setup only.
