Freeskills is a small collection of free skills for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant tool, shared by the repository owner for their YouTube audience. A skill in this context is a folder containing a file called SKILL.md that teaches Claude Code a new specific capability you can trigger with a slash command. Right now the repository holds one skill, called fable-goal, which the README describes as a tool that turns a rough, spoken out loud idea into a single well written goal prompt you can paste into a fresh session of a tool called Fable. The README notes that more skills will be added to the repository over time, so the collection is expected to grow. Installing a skill is simple. You download just the folder for the skill you want, either by cloning the whole repository and copying out that one folder, or by downloading the entire repository as a ZIP file from GitHub and extracting the folder you need. You then move that folder into your Claude Code skills directory, which can be a personal folder that applies across all your projects, or a project specific folder inside a single project. After restarting Claude Code, the skill becomes available and can be invoked by typing a forward slash followed by the skill's name. The README states the project is free to use and modify, without naming a specific formal software license. It also repeatedly promotes a paid Skool community called the Claude Code Club, described as a place to learn Claude Code alongside the author's other resources for nine dollars.
