Skill Marketplace

📖 Best for: All roles — people who want to install community-contributed mature skills (browser automation, report generation, data scraping) without writing them from scratch

📖 Reading time: 3 minutes

📖 In one sentence: YingClaw’s "App Store" — browse, one-click install, contribute, version management, and ratings & reviews for community-contributed reusable skills. Visit https://market.yingclaw.intelliyou.cn to browse, or yingclaw skill install <name> via CLI, or drop a SKILL.md locally. All roles, tightly integrated with the Skill System — marketplace is the "distribution channel", skill system is the "runtime".

3. Version Management​

  • Skills carry semantic versions (major.minor.patch, e.g. 1.2.3)
  • yingclaw skill upgrade <name> upgrades, showing diff prompt first (added / removed / modified steps)
  • Supports version pinning (yingclaw skill install <name> --pin 1.0.0) to avoid breaking changes
  • yingclaw skill outdated lists all upgradable skills

  • 5-star + text reviews; only users who've installed the skill can rate (anti-spam)
  • Review dimensions: ease of use / stability / doc quality / author responsiveness
  • High-rated skills get homepage featured slot + marketplace badges (Trusted / Popular / New)
  • Low-rated skills trigger automatic takedown review

5. Marketplace Publish (Earn Points)​

  • yingclaw skill publish <name> publishes a local skill to the marketplace
  • Required: skill name, description, 4-part SKILL.md, version, tags, screenshots (optional)
  • Review: 1-3 business days, YingClaw team manual + AI dual review
  • After going live: +10 points per install, +5 points per rating (redeemable for platform perks)

6. Update Tracking (Changelog Subscription)​

  • Subscribe: yingclaw skill follow <name>, YingClaw notifies on updates
  • yingclaw skill news shows all recent updates from followed skills

7. Private Marketplace (Enterprise)​

  • Enterprises can stand up a private marketplace (independent domain, internal users only)
  • Internal skills visible internally only; confidential info (API / credentials) never leaves the company
  • Supports approval flow: skill publication requires team-lead review
  • Pricing: included in YingClaw Enterprise license

8. Categories & Tags​

  • Categories (level 1): content ops / data analysis / automation testing / business systems / dev tools / industry-specific
  • Tags (level 2): csdn / excel / crm / chrome-automation / multi-platform etc.
  • Search supports: skill name / description / tag / author name

III. Typical Use Cases​

Use Case 1: Install Industry-Specific Skills — "Bid assistant"​

yingclaw skill install bid-generator
yingclaw skill install bid-auto-fill  # auto-fill bid forms
yingclaw skill install bid-pdf-extract  # extract bid requirements from PDF

Industry-specific skills (bidding, e-commerce ops, legal contracts) encapsulate domain knowledge; install and use, no need to build.

Use Case 2: Publish Your Skill & Earn Points — "Publish internal CRM skill to marketplace"​

# 1. polish local skill
yingclaw skill create crm-requirement-mgmt --content "4-part structure..."

# 2. after local tests pass
yingclaw skill test crm-requirement-mgmt  # run test cases

# 3. publish to marketplace
yingclaw skill publish crm-requirement-mgmt --version 1.0.0

# 4. after 1-3 day review, goes live; earn points per install

Publish your internal tools — helps the community and earns points, virtuous cycle.

Use Case 3: Track Upgrades — "intelliyou-docs-manager 1.2.0 out, should I upgrade?"​

yingclaw skill outdated
# shows: intelliyou-docs-manager  1.1.0 → 1.2.0  (has update)

yingclaw skill info intelliyou-docs-manager --changelog
# 1.2.0 (2026-08-27)
#   + added: frontmatter backtick self-check
#   - removed: legacy token detection
#   ~ modified: push workflow

yingclaw skill upgrade intelliyou-docs-manager  # upgrade

Read changelog before upgrading — confirm no breaking changes; critical tasks (prod deploy / data processing) especially cautious.

Use Case 4: Private Marketplace — "Internal skills visible only inside the company"​

yingclaw market login https://internal-market.company.com
yingclaw skill install internal-crm-sync  # company-only skill

Enterprise private marketplace protects internal API / credentials, skills don't leave the company — compliant and efficient.

Use Case 5: Team Bulk Install — "Install same skill set for 10 team members"​

# 1. maintain team skills.txt
cat > team-skills.txt <<EOF
csdn-auto-publish
bid-generator
intelliyou-docs-manager
excel-multi-platform-compare
EOF

# 2. bulk install
yingclaw skill install --file team-skills.txt

# 3. one-click sync to all team members (admin)
yingclaw team sync-skills team-skills.txt

Unified team skill stack — new hires set up with one command, no more "everyone installed different things".

IV. Usage Guide​

Step 1: Browse the marketplace — open https://market.yingclaw.intelliyou.cn, filter by category / tag / rating; or yingclaw skill search <keyword> from CLI.

Step 2: Install a skill — Web "Install" / CLI yingclaw skill install <name> / local import SKILL.md; first install prompts for authorization, confirm to mount.

Step 3: Use the skill — after install, say "use skill X to do Y" in conversation; YingClaw auto-activates and executes.

Step 4: Upgrade a skill — yingclaw skill outdated to see upgradable; yingclaw skill info <name> --changelog to see changes; yingclaw skill upgrade <name> to upgrade.

Step 5: Uninstall a skill — yingclaw skill uninstall <name> (only agent-created skills; manual / marketplace-installed need admin permission).

Step 6: Publish a skill — polish locally → yingclaw skill test run tests → yingclaw skill publish upload → wait for review → earn points after going live.

V. Best Practices​

  • Pick high-rated skills — 4+ stars with at least 50 installs; quality is guaranteed
  • Read changelog before upgrade — confirm no breaking changes; critical tasks (prod / data) especially cautious
  • Back up locally before upgrade — yingclaw skill export <name> before upgrade; can roll back if something breaks
  • Don't install too many skills — every skill takes context; 20+ skills will slow conversation; install on demand, periodically yingclaw skill list to clean up
  • Use private marketplace internally — skills involving internal API / credentials go to private marketplace, not public
  • Test before publishing — yingclaw skill test <name> runs the 4-part verification; 90%+ review pass rate
  • Rate & review actively — give 5 stars + write a review when you've installed and liked; helps community identify good skills, authors maintain better
  • Follow your skills — yingclaw skill follow <name>, know about updates immediately, avoid using stale versions
