This skill makes Claude find and install Huawei Cloud agent skills. You describe what you need, in Chinese or English, and Claude searches a skill index by keyword and category, shows details from the skill's SKILL.md on request and installs your pick with the skills CLI. SKILL.md says it handles discovery and installation only, and does not manage cloud resources itself.

Every run first checks Python and runs a script that installs skill-quality-cli, a quality-reporting tool, if it is missing. Searches and installs also send skill names to Huawei Cloud's install-count API. SKILL.md says this is anonymous and can be switched off. Its folder holds 9 files, including 4 scripts.

Good for

Huawei Cloud users who want to know which agent skill covers ECS, OBS, RDS or networking
Developers who want Claude to install a matching Huawei Cloud skill for them
Users who search in Chinese or English

Install huawei-cloud-find-skills

Claude Code

Copy this prompt.

Install the huawei-cloud-find-skills skill in Claude Code. Run this command:

npx skills add huaweicloud/huaweicloud-skills --skill huawei-cloud-find-skills

Then check that it loaded and tell me how to use it.

2
Paste it into Claude Code. It shows the change and asks before running it.

Requires Node.js, Python 3.6 or newer.

Pick one route. The skill runs Python and shell scripts, so there is no Claude app upload route. It needs Python 3.6 or newer and network access to gitcode.com, gitee.com, github.com and raw.githubusercontent.com. SKILL.md says Claude must run bash scripts/ensure_cli.sh on every use, which installs a quality-telemetry tool called skill-quality-cli when it is missing. To switch the telemetry off, export SKILL_QUALITY_REPORT=0.

What it includes

Runs python --version and asks you to install Python 3.6 or newer if it is missing
Runs code · Check Python
Runs ensure_cli.sh, which installs a telemetry CLI into ~/.local/bin if absent
SKILL.md marks this step as mandatory on every run. The script downloads a pinned build and checks its SHA256 before installing.
Runs code · Ensure skill-quality-cli
Runs scripts/check-koocli.py to remind you when hcloud is missing or older than 3.0.0
It is informational and always exits 0.
Runs code · Check KooCLI
Runs search-skills.py with a keyword and optional category via skill-quality-cli
It reads an index from GitCode, falls back to Gitee, caches it for an hour, expands Chinese and English keywords and scores matches.
Try: “华为云有没有管理 OBS 的 skill？”
Runs code · Search skills
Fetches the matched skill's SKILL.md from raw.githubusercontent.com on request
Network · View skill details
POSTs the skill_id to a devdata2.huaweicloud.com install-count API before installing
Network · Record the install
Runs npx skills add from GitCode, ClawHub or GitHub with -y, wrapped in skill-quality-cli
GitCode is the default, ClawHub is option B and GitHub is the fallback. A piped newline answers the scope prompt.
Runs code · Install the skill

What it can do

Read-only mode

Watch out for

It installs a telemetry tool on every first run
ensure_cli.sh downloads skill-quality-cli, checks a pinned SHA256 and copies it to ~/.local/bin. It can also write a launcher into a writable PATH folder. SKILL.md makes the step mandatory. github.com
Usage reports are on by default
Search results and installs are reported to Huawei Cloud endpoints. SKILL.md says the data is anonymous skill metadata and can be switched off with SKILL_QUALITY_REPORT=0. github.com
It installs other skills without prompting
The install commands use -y and pipe a newline into the scope prompt. A bad match would install without a confirmation step. Check the skill name first. github.com
The index comes from a branch named test-for-index
The primary and backup index URLs both point at that branch. github.com

Technical details

Turning on read-only	SKILL.md calls the skill read-only for cloud resources. It still installs software and other skills.
Talks to	gitcode.com (skill index). gitee.com (backup index). github.com and raw.githubusercontent.com (skill details, fallback install). clawhub.ai (install option B). devdata2.huaweicloud.com (install counts). obs-skills-repository.obs.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com (skill-quality-cli download)
Sign-in and keys	SKILL.md and references/iam-policies.md say no credentials are needed.
Scopes	Runs Python and shell scripts from the skill folder Downloads and installs skill-quality-cli into ~/.local/bin and may add a launcher on your PATH Fetches the skill index and SKILL.md files over the network Sends skill names and skill_ids to Huawei Cloud install-count and quality-report endpoints Installs other skills with npx skills add -y

Questions

What does the Huawei Cloud Find Skills skill do?

It makes Claude search a Huawei Cloud skill index by keyword or category, in Chinese or English, show details and install the skill you choose. It does not create or manage cloud resources itself.

Does it need Huawei Cloud credentials?

SKILL.md says no other CLI or credential is required beyond Python 3.6 or newer and network access, and references/iam-policies.md says it needs no IAM credentials or policy. A skill it installs may need its own credentials.

What does it send to Huawei Cloud?

SKILL.md says three kinds of anonymous reports are on by default: top-3 search result names, the skill_id before an install, and quality reports from skill-quality-cli. It says they hold skill name, category and service, and not your input, credentials, cloud data or personal information. The quality report goes to an endpoint SKILL.md calls a test environment.

How do I turn the reporting off?

Set SKILL_QUALITY_REPORT=0 in your environment. SKILL.md says both skill-quality-cli and search-skills.py honour it.

What does it install on my machine?

ensure_cli.sh puts skill-quality-cli in ~/.local/bin, writes ~/.skill-quality/version.json and may add a small launcher script in the first writable folder on your PATH. The pinned build is for Linux, and the script says only an arm64 build is published by default. The search script caches its index in ~/.cache/huawei-cloud-find-skills/.

Is it safe?

It runs scripts, contacts several hosts, installs a telemetry tool and installs other skills with -y, which skips confirmations. Read which skill Claude is about to install and from which source. Our advice: ask Claude to show the install command before it runs.

Where does the skill list come from?

From an index in a GitCode repository, branch test-for-index, with a Gitee mirror as backup. Skill details come from the huaweicloud/huaweicloud-skills repo on GitHub.

Is it official?

It is in the huaweicloud/huaweicloud-skills repo, which the README calls officially maintained Huawei Cloud Agent Skills.
