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.
MCP Skills vs Native Claude Tools: What's the Difference and When to Use Each
Claude comes with built-in capabilities, but MCP skills extend it in ways the base model can't. Here's a clear breakdown of what each type of tool is good for, with real examples of when to reach for a skill versus relying on Claude's native abilities.
Plex extends your AI assistant with the ability to control Plex Media Server - browse libraries, search, play media, manage playback. 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 Plex as its underlying capability.
Plex 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 Plex 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 Plex takes about two minutes. Place the skill at `~/.claude/skills/plex-skill/` (personal, all projects) or `.claude/skills/plex-skill/` (project-specific), then restart your AI client. From that point, typing `/plex-skill` in any conversation activates it, or the AI will use it on its own when it detects a relevant request.
Plex has 320 installs and is part of the growing Developer & DevOps skill ecosystem on DiscoverAISkills. 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/plex-skill/ for personal use (all projects), or .claude/skills/plex-skill/ for project-specific use. Restart your AI client, then invoke with /plex-skill or let the AI discover it automatically.
Plex supports Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw. It integrates seamlessly with these AI platforms to extend their capabilities.
Plex is free to install. Check the repository for licensing information.
