Overview
About This Skill
OpenSkills enables you to execute Claude Skills entirely on your local machine using a sandboxed container environment on Mac. Rather than uploading sensitive files to cloud services, you can process documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and images locally while maintaining complete data privacy. The tool integrates with MCP-compatible AI tools including Claude Desktop, Gemini CLI, Qwen CLI, and OpenAI agents, allowing you to leverage specialized skills for file processing tasks. You can import official skills from Anthropic's repository or create custom skills to extend functionality. Setup involves configuring your AI tool to connect to the local MCP server and installing required dependencies.
How to Use
1. Install OpenSkills and the required LLM (e.g., Ollama or Qwen-CLI) on your local machine. 2. Prepare your input data and define the skill you want to run. 3. Use the prompt template to specify the skill name, LLM, input data, and validation criteria. 4. Run the skill locally and review the output. 5. Validate the results against your criteria and make adjustments as needed.
