# Solana AI Kit plugin skill hub

This is the plugin variant of the kit's skill hub. It ships only the skills that travel cleanly in a plugin: the go-to-market skills and the opt-in add-on catalog. The protocol, security and ecosystem skills, the project CLAUDE.md with the program-code house rules, and the curated permissions and sandbox policy come with the full install (see "Getting more depth").

When sources overlap: a protocol's official skill wins for its own SDK (Jupiter, Metaplex, Helius); the Solana Foundation `solana-dev` skill wins for general Solana work (Anchor, Pinocchio, testing, clients); community skills such as sendai fill gaps only. In plugin form, add the relevant upstream marketplace first.

## Bundled skills

These load when the plugin is enabled. Commands and skills are namespaced under `solana-ai-kit:` (for example `/solana-ai-kit:deploy`).

- [idea-sprint/SKILL.md](idea-sprint/SKILL.md): what to build; blunt interview, crypto-necessity gate, 3 scored candidates, go/no-go
- [pitch-deck/SKILL.md](pitch-deck/SKILL.md): audience-aware decks (hackathon, VC, grant, accelerator) with speaking notes and objection prep
- [hackathon/SKILL.md](hackathon/SKILL.md): scannable submissions, demo scripts under 3 minutes, track choice, Superteam Earn grants
- [skill-registry.json](skill-registry.json): catalog of opt-in add-on skills, plugins and MCPs that are not bundled. Search it by domain or tag and run an entry's install command only after the user confirms.

These three skills are adapted from sendaifun/solana-new (MIT, telemetry removed).

## Getting more depth

Plugins cannot carry git submodules, so the 18 external skill packs (the `ext` submodules) are not bundled here. Two ways to get them:

### Option A: add the upstream marketplaces

| Domain | Add the marketplace | Then install |
|--------|---------------------|--------------|
| DeFi protocols, infra, data (Jupiter, Raydium, Kamino, perps, oracles, cross-chain) | `/plugin marketplace add sendaifun/skills` | the protocol plugins you need |
| AppSec scanning (SAST, SCA, secrets) | `/plugin marketplace add ghostsecurity/skills` | `ghost` |
| Security auditing, vulnerability scanning | `/plugin marketplace add trailofbits/skills` | the audit plugins you need |
| Infrastructure (Workers, Agents SDK, MCP servers) | `/plugin marketplace add cloudflare/skills` | `cloudflare` |

For Jupiter, Metaplex and Helius the official skill repos are the primary sources; `skill-registry.json` lists their current upstream locations and `/plugin marketplace add` targets. Route to a marketplace and install the plugin rather than pointing at an upstream repo's `SKILL.md`.

### Option B: full install (recommended for project teams)

Run the installer in your project to get what the plugin can't carry: the 18 external skill submodules, the project CLAUDE.md, and the curated permissions and sandbox policy.

```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/solanabr/ai-kit/main/install.sh | bash
```

The project README ("External Skill Submodules" and "Install as a Claude Code plugin") explains when to pick the plugin or the full install; they are complementary. If both are active in one project, `/solana-ai-kit:doctor` flags the duplicate commands, hooks and MCP servers.

## Task routing

| User asks about | Skill |
|-----------------|-------|
| Idea validation, "what should I build" | idea-sprint/SKILL.md |
| Pitch deck, demo day, investor or grant slides | pitch-deck/SKILL.md |
| Hackathon submission, demo script, track choice | hackathon/SKILL.md |
| An add-on skill, plugin or MCP that isn't bundled | skill-registry.json |
| Protocol SDK depth, security audits, infra | Option A marketplaces or the Option B full install |
