Suede Creator Skills for SEO and business growth

Suede Creator Skills gives founders, marketers, and small teams reusable workflows for SEO audits, AI search visibility, conversion copy, and business operations. Run them in Claude Code or OpenAI Codex, with instructions you can inspect and adapt to your business.

Start with the business task:

• Search visibility: audit a page with suede-seo-audit, or plan content for AI search with suede-ai-seo.
• Positioning and conversion: define your audience and offer with suede-product-marketing, then write page copy with suede-copy.
• Business operations: map bottlenecks with suede-ops-assessment and define the system with suede-ops-architecture.

These are public, broadly reusable, open-source skill folders, installable from one path. Read each skills/<name>/SKILL.md before you install it. The pack also covers campaign planning, code review, app delivery, and music release prep. Original work is MIT licensed; adapted components keep their upstream licenses, listed in NOTICE.md. No binaries, no telemetry, no accounts.

Install in 30 seconds

Claude Code — add the marketplace, install the pack:

/plugin marketplace add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills
/plugin install suede-skills@suede

suede-skills installs every skill. Want less? Three focused subsets: /plugin install suede-marketing@suede (39 marketing and growth skills), /plugin install suede-agent-workflows@suede (Suede Thought Graph shipping, orchestration, workflows, evals), and /plugin install suede-code@suede (review, grade, ship-gate).

Codex — add the Codex-native marketplace, install the complete plugin:

codex plugin marketplace add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills --ref main
codex plugin add suede-skills@suede-codex

The Codex plugin loads every skill and registers 1 read-only MCP server with 9 tools. Restart Codex after installing or updating.

Hermes Agent (Nous Research) — this repo is a skills tap. Subscribe to browse and search the whole pack, or install one skill without subscribing:

hermes skills tap add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills
hermes skills search seo
hermes skills install JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills/skills/suede-seo-audit

Hermes installs the whole skill folder — references/, agents/, evals/ — into ~/.hermes/skills/, security-scans it first, and shows it as /suede-seo-audit in chat. It carries the skills only: the MCP discovery server and the bundled Suede Thought Graph workflow are Claude Code and Codex surfaces.

Any agent (Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Claude Code, Codex) via the skills CLI:

npx skills add JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills

Python (PyPI): install the package, then load the pack into your agent. --target codex installs into Codex, and existing folders are kept unless you pass --force:

pipx install suede-creator-skills && suede-skills install

Prefer a clone? install.sh copies every skill into ~/.claude/skills/ and prints the installed count:

git clone https://github.com/JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills.git && bash suede-creator-skills/install.sh

You can also copy individual skill folders into .claude/skills/ (project) or ~/.claude/skills/ (user). One exception: the hardened suede-graph-flo-xr JavaScript workflow also requires the skill's bundled agents/suede-graph-flo-xr-*.md profiles in ~/.claude/agents and macOS sandbox-exec. The suede-skills and suede-agent-workflows Claude plugins, plus install.sh, install those profiles; a skill-folder-only or generic skills-CLI install does not. Codex can use the skill's orchestration contract, but does not execute this Claude Workflow runner. The caller passes the namespace explicitly on every launch: suede-skills for the full plugin, suede-agent-workflows for the focused plugin, and the empty string for clone or manual user-agent installs.

More install routes (single-skill Codex installer, project-level copy, MCP)

Codex — install one skill from GitHub:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/.system/skill-installer/scripts/install-skill-from-github.py \
  --repo JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills \
  --path skills/suede-agent-teams

Swap skills/<skill> for any skill folder, or pass extra skills/<name> paths to install several at once. Restart Codex after installing.

Claude Code — project-level copy of a single skill:

git clone https://github.com/JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills.git /tmp/suede-creator-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/suede-creator-skills/skills/suede-agent-teams .claude/skills/

For a user-level install, copy into ~/.claude/skills/ instead. Claude.ai and organization-managed Claude Skills may use upload or admin-managed flows instead of filesystem copy. Review skill contents before enabling code execution.

MCP — dependency-free stdio server:

node mcp/suede-skills-mcp.mjs --profile all

Exposes 9 tools (list_suede_skills, list_suede_specialties, search_suede_skills, get_suede_skill, suede_install_options, suede_copy_seo_audit, suede_visibility_grade, suede_code_grade, suede_qa_checklist), 7 resources, and 5 prompts over JSON-RPC.

Try it right now

Install the pack, then give your agent a page to audit:

Use suede-seo-audit to audit this page for search visibility and return prioritized findings with exact copy fixes: [your page URL]

For a nontrivial multi-file change, run the ship DAG:

Use suede-graph-flo-xr to take this change through the canonical Suede DAG: research it, build it in disjoint lanes, refute the review findings, and hand back evidence.

If the pack saves you an hour, star the repo — stars are how other builders find it.

Orchestration: broad outcomes, adversarial review

Tell your agent "max effort, spare no compute, fix everything" and most of the time you get enthusiasm, not engineering. The orchestration lane turns that intent into structure:

• suede-graph-flo-xr runs a Suede Thought Graph shipping search on a repo: generate competing plans, score and prune them, adversarially refute and improve survivors, aggregate compatible lanes, then build, review, and gate only the selected plan. Light/standard/deep are capped at 55/110/200 calls. Production reads only; it never deploys.
• suede-agent-teams wires complex changes into coordinated agent lanes with WIP collision detection, RFC mode, feature-flag strategy, rollback trees, and a handoff checklist that won't close without evidence. Its public-contribution mode adds scored issue queues, atomic leases, isolated worktrees, and authority-gated contribution packets.
• suede-ship-copy is a separate copy-only orchestration DAG for one high-stakes piece of writing: five blind research lenses, a claim audit that closes the set of assertable facts, disjoint section writers, adversarial refutation, a deslop pass, and a publish-readiness gate.

The A–F ship grade

suede-code runs a findings pass (TypeScript, React, Next.js, OWASP, and database checklists), then returns a grade card scoring seven lanes: Correctness, Security and permissions, Data and state, Domain truth, UX and release behavior, Tests and verification, and Deploy readiness. The weakest lane caps the grade, and auth and payment surfaces carry grade caps of their own.

If it hits an instant-F trigger — a hardcoded secret, a permission check bypassable via a request param — the grade locks to F with the exact file and line, and no other lane can raise it. A polite review tells you what could be better. A grade tells you whether to ship.

Essays on why the pack is built the way it is:

• **Two skills, and the bugs that wrote them** — Google Play publishing from the terminal, and a parity contract that keeps four surfaces of one product honest
• **71 skills installed. Your agent reads almost none of them.** — progressive disclosure, Suede Thought Graph shipping search, and the MCP layer
• **Why breadth is free now, and what that changes** — the economics of broad skill packs
• **NOT FOR: the two words that make a big skill pack work** — how skills route without colliding
• **Your memory file is a tax you pay on every prompt** — why memory belongs in skills
• **Two new lanes: a next-action recommender and a one-prompt Android app factory**

Public pages

• GitHub repository
• GitHub Pages site — public documentation generated from this repo
• Skill docs catalog — every skill with install and resource links
• Agent Skills Directory (data) — other authors' public skills in sixteen category directories, each scored 0–99 by the published, graded Suede Skill Check and linked to its source; listings scoring 80–99 offer separate numeric and A/B README shields, both linking to their listing. Authors can request a listing, score help or badge verification; displaying either valid linked badge (or both) can qualify for a limited-time feature placement after verification. Security scan status is separate from the structural score
• Installs and MCP page — install commands plus the Suede Skills MCP
• Copy bank (source) and public explainer pack
• S-Tier: the builder's book (source, PDF) — a free, roughly 29,900-word book on how Agent Skills work and how to get genuinely good with them

MCP server

The repo ships a dependency-free stdio MCP server at mcp/. It implements initialize, tools/list, tools/call, resources/list, resources/read, prompts/list, and prompts/get.

node mcp/suede-skills-mcp.mjs --profile all

Safety

Core local workflows inspect current files, pages, repos, and local folders without uploading by default or granting new authority. Explicit browser, deployment, marketplace, publishing, or support workflows may use the operator's existing authenticated access only when that action is authorized. The skills do not request secrets, write to a registry, or claim legal clearance.

The creator skills generate private drafts by default — reports and packages can contain names, payment notes, file names, hashes, rights claims, and provenance notes. Review and redact before publishing or sending outside the intended workflow. A clean report is not a legal opinion, registry write, rights clearance, or payment guarantee.

CLI flags on the creator scripts: --include-hidden, --include-other, --include-absolute-paths, and --force. Scripts skip hidden files, secret-like files, dependency folders, and build outputs by default, and refuse to write a package into or under its source folder.

Every skill ships with a skill card — a release record following the NVIDIA skill-card template that states the skill's purpose, owner, license, dependencies, known risks and mitigations, output, and release evidence, so a reviewer can evaluate it without opening the source first.

Status

The creator scripts are dependency-light Python and run on the standard library. Optional enhancements use installed packages when available — Pillow for artwork dimension checks, PyYAML for YAML metadata:

python3 -m pip install PyYAML
