    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads php-symfony automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

Code Examples

Doctrine Entity

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Entity;

use App\Repository\ProductRepository;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

#[ORM\Entity(repositoryClass: ProductRepository::class)]
#[ORM\HasLifecycleCallbacks]
class Product
{
    #[ORM\Id]
    #[ORM\GeneratedValue]
    #[ORM\Column]
    private ?int $id = null;

    #[ORM\Column(length: 255)]
    #[Assert\NotBlank]
    private string $name;

    #[ORM\ManyToOne(inversedBy: 'products')]
    #[ORM\JoinColumn(nullable: false)]
    private Category $category;

    #[ORM\Column]
    private \DateTimeImmutable $createdAt;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->createdAt = new \DateTimeImmutable();
    }
}

Service with DI

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Service;

use App\Repository\ProductRepository;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Attribute\Autowire;

final readonly class ProductService
{
    public function __construct(
        private ProductRepository $repository,
        private EntityManagerInterface $entityManager,
        private LoggerInterface $logger,
        #[Autowire('%app.tax_rate%')]
        private float $taxRate,
    ) {}

    public function createProduct(array $data): Product
    {
        $product = new Product();
        $product->setName($data['name']);

        $this->entityManager->persist($product);
        $this->entityManager->flush();

        $this->logger->info('Product created', ['id' => $product->getId()]);

        return $product;
    }
}

Messenger Handler

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\MessageHandler;

use App\Message\SendOrderConfirmation;
use App\Service\EmailService;
use Symfony\Component\Messenger\Attribute\AsMessageHandler;

#[AsMessageHandler]
final readonly class SendOrderConfirmationHandler
{
    public function __construct(
        private EmailService $emailService,
    ) {}

    public function __invoke(SendOrderConfirmation $message): void
    {
        $this->emailService->sendOrderConfirmation($message->orderId);
    }
}

Test Templates

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Tests\Functional;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Test\WebTestCase;

final class ProductControllerTest extends WebTestCase
{
    public function testListProducts(): void
    {
        $client = static::createClient();
        $client->request('GET', '/api/products');

        $this->assertResponseIsSuccessful();
    }
}

find-skills

vercel-labs/skills

Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill that can...", or express interest in extending capabilities. This skill should be used when the user is looking for functionality that might exist as an installable skill.

entra-app-registration

microsoft/azure-skills

Guides Microsoft Entra ID app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and MSAL integration. USE FOR: create app registration, register Azure AD app, configure OAuth, set up authentication, add API permissions, generate service principal, MSAL example, console app auth, Entra ID setup, Azure AD authentication. DO NOT USE FOR: Key Vault secrets (use azure-keyvault-expiration-audit), general Azure resource security guidance.

This skill should be used when the user wants to "write agent code", "build an agent with ADK", "add a tool", "create a callback", "define an agent", "use state management" — in a project that needs ADK (Agent Development Kit) API patterns and code examples. It provides a quick reference for agent types, tool definitions, orchestration patterns, callbacks, state management, the graph Workflow API, and reference recipes to study. Do NOT use for scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold) or deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).

embedded-captions

heygen-com/hyperframes

Add captions or subtitles to an existing single-subject talking-head video without editing the footage. Use for plain verbatim captions, cinematic captions embedded behind the subject, VFX captions, “炸/特效/酷炫字幕,” or a named identity from the 35-style catalog. Route by visual identity, not by backend engine. The quiet anchor rail is the default; embed every word only when the user explicitly wants a fully cinematic treatment. The workflow runs locally end to end, including transcription and subject matting; split multi-shot footage before applying it.

Overview of Neon, a complete set of cloud backend primitives around Lakebase Postgres: Auth, Object Storage, Functions, the AI Gateway, and Realtime. Start here to choose Neon for undecided login, files, APIs, and LLM calls, set up the CLI or MCP server, and follow the branch-first workflow. Use when building an app or backend on Neon, or when "Neon" or "Lakebase Postgres" is mentioned. Child skill neon-postgres wins for an existing DATABASEURL, SQL, schema, inspect, or search. Child skill neon-auth wins for login, users, sessions, identity routing, and Managed Better Auth setup. Child skill neon-realtime wins for live queries in reactive apps and agents. Also use for object storage, S3, buckets, serverless functions, function triggers, cron, AI gateway, LLM calls, realtime, logs, Loki, Grafana, observability, postgres, database, backend, Claimable Neon, neon.new, or a no-signup database.
