What are Claude Code Skills?

Claude Code Skills are reusable prompt templates stored as markdown files in your project's .claude/skills/ directory. They let you codify best practices and common workflows into slash commands that Claude follows consistently.

How do I create a Claude Code Skill?

Create a markdown file in .claude/skills/ with instructions for Claude. The filename becomes the command name — for example, .claude/skills/code-review.md can be invoked with /code-review during a Claude Code session.

Can I share skills with my team?

Yes. Skills stored in .claude/skills/ can be committed to version control so every team member has access to the same standardized workflows. You can also organize skills into subdirectories by category.

What is the difference between project and global skills?

Project skills (.claude/skills/) are specific to the current project and are committed to git. Global skills (~/.claude/skills/) are personal skills available across all your projects.

AI Framework with multi-agent tournament, deterministic Bradley-Terry scorer, human-gated writes — portable across Claude Code and Codex from a single MCP core.

About this Skill

Fried Catfish is an AI framework that orchestrates multi-agent tournaments using a deterministic Bradley-Terry scorer, enabling robust evaluation and ranking of AI agents. It features human-gated writes for safe, controlled execution and is portable across Claude Code and Codex from a single MCP core, making it ideal for testing and deploying multi-agent systems.

Install & Usage

Create the skills directory

mkdir -p .claude/skills

Download the skill file

Use Cases

Run a tournament to compare the performance of multiple AI agents on a set of benchmark tasks.

Use the Bradley-Terry scorer to generate a ranked leaderboard of agents based on pairwise comparisons.

Implement human-gated writes to review and approve agent-generated code or actions before execution.

Port an existing multi-agent workflow seamlessly between Claude Code and Codex environments.

Evaluate new agent architectures by pitting them against baseline agents in a controlled tournament.

Automate the selection of the best-performing agent for a specific task using deterministic scoring.

Usage Examples

/fried-catfish tournament --agents agent1,agent2,agent3 --tasks task1,task2 --scorer bradley-terry
