Key Capabilities

Knowledge & Productivity (Highest Impact)

  • notion-api (60K installs - flagship skill): Full CRUD on Notion pages, databases, blocks, and comments. Supports searching, filtering, and rich text. Most-installed skill in the toolkit by a wide margin.
  • youtube-transcript (3.1K installs): Fetch transcripts with timestamps, multi-language support. Useful for content analysis and video summarization.
  • anki-connect: Create, update, and review Anki flashcards programmatically - ideal for spaced repetition learning automation
  • raindrop-api: Search, organize, and manage bookmarks across collections
  • context7: Retrieve current documentation for any library/framework - avoids stale training data
  • copilot-sdk: Build custom Copilot extensions with streaming, tools, agents, and MCP servers
  • gog-cli: Full Google Workspace automation from the command line - Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides
  • mgrep-code-search: Search across multiple codebases with regex and structured output

Creative & Visual

  • beautiful-mermaid: Render Mermaid diagrams to SVG/PNG for documentation and presentations
  • ray-so-code-snippet: Generate styled code screenshots for social media and docs
  • gpt-image-1-5: Programmatic image generation and editing

Prerequisites

Requirement Details
Node.js 18+
Notion API Key For notion-api (integration token + page access)
Tavily API Key For tavily search
Context7 API Key For context7 docs lookup
Google Cloud For gog-cli (OAuth credentials)
Anki + AnkiConnect For anki-connect (desktop app + plugin)

Quick Start

# 1. Install the flagship skill
npx skills add intellectronica/agent-skills --skill notion-api

# 2. Install YouTube and search tools
npx skills add intellectronica/agent-skills --skill youtube-transcript
npx skills add intellectronica/agent-skills --skill tavily

# 3. Verify
npx skills list | grep intellectronica

# 4. Use in Hermes - skills load on trigger
# "Search Notion for the Q3 roadmap" → notion-api
# "Get the transcript of this YouTube video" → youtube-transcript

Verification

# Check installed skills
npx skills list | grep -E "notion-api|youtube-transcript|tavily"

# Test Notion - requires NOTION_API_KEY in environment
# "List my Notion databases"

# Test YouTube transcript
# "Get transcript from https://youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"

Notes

  • notion-api dominates at 60K installs (95% of the toolkit's total) - it's the primary motivation for most users
  • Low GitHub stars (279) despite high install counts suggests the repo is personal/niche but the skills solve real problems
  • The gog-cli skill overlaps with the existing google-workspace catalog entry - prefer gog-cli for CLI-centric workflows, Google Workspace skill for API-centric
  • context7 and tavily are useful complements to existing web-search and web-extract capabilities - they provide structured, AI-optimized search results
  • copilot-sdk is valuable if you're building custom GitHub Copilot extensions alongside Hermes agents
  • Most skills require API keys - configure in environment variables before first use
