The 7 AI Skills Every Software Developer Should Have Installed in 2026
After testing dozens of developer-focused AI skills, these are the seven that have proven genuinely useful across different tech stacks and workflows β not just impressive demos, but tools that hold up under daily use.
Home Assistant extends your AI assistant with the ability to control Home Assistant smart home devices, run automations, and receive webhook events. Use when controlling lights, switches, climate, scenes, scripts, or any HA entity. Supports bidirectional communication via REST API (outbound) and webhooks (inbound triggers from HA automations). Rather than leaving your conversation to handle this manually, you can ask your Claude agent directly β and it will take care of the task end-to-end, using Home Assistant as its underlying capability.
Home Assistant works across Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) β an open standard that lets AI clients share tools and skills without lock-in. Because MCP is platform-agnostic by design, you install Home Assistant 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.
Home Assistant installs like any other MCP skill: drop the folder into `~/.claude/skills/home-assistant/` for global access, or `.claude/skills/home-assistant/` to keep it scoped to one project. After a quick restart of Claude, you can trigger it explicitly with `/home-assistant`, or let the AI decide when it's the right tool for your request.
With 17,147 installs, Home Assistant has built a substantial following in the Developer & DevOps space. That install count reflects consistent demand from developers and teams who've found it genuinely useful. 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.
Place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/home-assistant/ for personal use (all projects), or .claude/skills/home-assistant/ for project-specific use. Restart your AI client, then invoke with /home-assistant or let the AI discover it automatically.
Home Assistant supports Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw. It integrates seamlessly with these AI platforms to extend their capabilities.
Home Assistant is free to install. Check the repository for licensing information.
