agent-skills is a structured library of 20 production-grade engineering skills for AI coding agents, published by Addy Osmani (former Google Chrome DevTools lead, author of Essential JavaScript Design Patterns). It provides a complete spec-to-ship workflow via 7 slash commands (/spec, /plan, /build, /test, /review, /code-simplify, /ship) that work across Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, and GitHub Copilot — any agent that supports CLAUDE.md or equivalent configuration files. The library includes three specialist personas that activate on demand: a security auditor (checks for injection vulnerabilities, hardcoded secrets, OWASP Top 10), a code reviewer (focuses on maintainability, complexity, and test coverage), and a test engineer (generates unit, integration, and edge-case tests). Four reference checklists (API design, accessibility, performance, deployment) give agents shared evaluation criteria. Each skill is written as a Markdown instruction file following the CLAUDE.md conventions popularized by the karpathy-skills library. agent-skills accumulated 6,693 GitHub stars in its first trending week, outpacing most comparable skill collections. Osmani's framing — treating agent skills as a first-class engineering asset rather than ad-hoc prompts — resonates with teams trying to standardize how they use AI coding tools. The library is MIT-licensed and designed to be forked and extended.

Onform is an MCP-native form builder — the first form tool designed around MCP as its primary interface rather than a visual drag-and-drop UI. You describe the form you want to Claude or Cursor, and Onform's MCP server creates it, adds fields, sets validation rules, configures submissions, and returns a live URL. No dashboard, no templates, no GUI required. The platform handles all the backend infrastructure: submission storage, email notifications, spam filtering, and export to CSV or webhook. Each form has a public URL and an admin API. Updating a form is as simple as telling your agent what to change. Onform is built for developers who create forms as part of larger agent workflows — onboarding flows, data collection pipelines, feedback loops — where manually clicking through a SaaS dashboard breaks the automation chain. It supports multi-step forms, conditional logic, file uploads, and custom branding via MCP tool parameters.
Reviewer scorecard
“Having security audits, test generation, and spec creation as first-class slash commands changes how you think about agent-assisted development. The cross-tool compatibility (Claude, Cursor, Gemini) means you can standardize across a team with mixed tool preferences. Fork it, customize the checklists, and you have a company playbook.”
“MCP-first is the right design philosophy for developer tools in 2026. Being able to spin up a form with submission handling and webhook delivery through a Claude conversation — without touching a UI — removes a surprisingly annoying friction point in agent-built workflows.”
“This is well-packaged prompt engineering, not a fundamentally new capability. The value depends entirely on the underlying agent following instructions reliably — which varies wildly across tools and models. Teams that haven't established basic code review processes will use this as a crutch rather than building genuine engineering discipline.”
“Typeform, Tally, and even Google Forms are hard to beat on price and ecosystem. The MCP angle is clever but the addressable market is narrow — most teams who need forms don't have an agent workflow they need to fit it into. The moat depends entirely on MCP adoption velocity.”
“The real innovation here is treating agent behavior as versionable, shareable code. The next step is organizations maintaining their own agent-skills forks as living engineering standards — the CLAUDE.md pattern is becoming a de facto org-level configuration layer for how teams interact with AI.”
“Every data collection touchpoint that can be managed by an agent will be. Onform is a small example of how MCP will quietly restructure the SaaS tool category — tools that can't be controlled programmatically via agents will lose to tools that can.”
“The /spec and /plan commands are genuinely useful for non-engineers who need to communicate feature requirements to an AI agent. Clear structured specs reduce the back-and-forth of vague prompts — this could be the bridge between product thinking and implementation.”
“For most creative use cases — reader surveys, client intake, waitlist signups — the visual feedback of building a form matters. Describing a form in text and trusting the agent to get the layout right sounds good but loses something in translation for design-sensitive contexts.”
