Airc

Staying on top of communications across multiple channels is a real challenge for modern teams. Airc helps by enabling connect to irc servers (airc or any standard irc) and participate in channels. send/receive messages, join/part channels, and listen for activity directly from your AI assistant, without switching apps or logging into separate platforms.

Airc works across Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install Airc once and it becomes available across all your AI clients. Whether you're working in Claude for focused sessions or Cursor for integrated workflows, the skill behaves consistently.

Getting started with Airc takes about two minutes. Place the skill at `~/.claude/skills/airc/` (personal, all projects) or `.claude/skills/airc/` (project-specific), then restart your AI client. From that point, typing `/airc` in any conversation activates it, or the AI will use it on its own when it detects a relevant request.

Airc has been installed 2,212 times, making it one of the more actively used skills in the Communication category. The install rate suggests it solves a real, recurring need rather than a niche edge case. The source code is open on GitHub — you can inspect it, contribute fixes, or fork it to adapt the skill for your specific setup. Like all skills on DiscoverAISkills, it is free to install and use. The broader AI skills ecosystem continues to expand as developers contribute new capabilities across categories like developer tools, data analysis, writing, automation, and more.
