What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
elon
General Elon Musk AI mentor. Use when you need first-principles thinking, honest feedback, or strategic guidance on any problem.
SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-build
Write code with extreme simplicity and deletion bias. Fewer components, prototype fast, think about the factory not just the product.
build/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-focus
Find and attack the bottleneck. Use when overwhelmed or scattered. Kills distractions, defines the overarching optimization.
focus/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-hire
Build small, exceptional teams. Hiring (the detail test), org structure, communication, culture. Special Forces approach.
hire/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-plan
Run The Algorithm on any project. Question requirements, delete, simplify, accelerate, automate — in that order. Sets aggressive timelines.
plan/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-retro
Run a retrospective. Extracts maximum learning, updates mental models, kills wishful thinking. Aspire to be less wrong.
retro/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-review
Brutal honest code and design review. Checks idiot index on your code, finds wrong optimizations, holds exceptionally high standards.
review/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-ship
Create maniacal urgency to ship. Identifies blockers, cuts scope ruthlessly, parallelizes work, sets aggressive deadlines.

elon-test
SpaceX testing philosophy. Matches test intensity to stakes (Dragon/Falcon/Starship modes), finds unknown unknowns, pushes the envelope.
test/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab) -
elon-think
Force first-principles thinking. Use before making decisions or starting new projects. Kills reasoning by analogy, calculates magic-wand numbers and idiot indexes.
think/SKILL.md on GitHub (opens in a new tab)
No skill matches that filter.
Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
