[daily.dev for Startups](/startups/) comes with skills for your coding agent. A skill is a set of instructions your agent loads, so it knows how to do one job on daily.dev well: find your next post, check a draft, or report on how things are going.

The skills are open source, in the [dailydotdev/daily](https://github.com/dailydotdev/daily/tree/main/skills) repository.

## The skills

| Skill | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Content ideas** (`/daily-dev-content-ideas`) | Looks at what your team recently built, fixed or learned, and turns it into a post or video idea shaped by your [weekly intel](/weekly-intel/): the topic it fits, the angle, the format, the title, the length and the best time to publish. |
| **Content review** (`/daily-dev-content-review`) | Reviews a draft post, article or video script against the intel, tells you what works and what would make the biggest difference, and helps you revise it until it's ready. |
| **Growth routine** (`/daily-dev-growth-routine`) | Sets up a daily run. Each day it reports how your company page and its posts did, how your boosts are going, and whether a post is due at the cadence you chose. |
| **Profile** (`/daily-dev-profile`) | Makes your own daily.dev profile credible to developers: a photo, a clear headline, your current role, an About me, links and your stack. It reads the profile first and fills in what is empty or weak. |

The skills suggest, review and report. You decide what gets published, and a skill saves or publishes only after you approve.

## Installing them

In Claude Code, the skills come with the daily.dev plugin:

```bash
claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/dailydotdev/daily.git
claude plugin install daily.dev@daily.dev
```

Other agents can load the same skills from the [repository](https://github.com/dailydotdev/daily/tree/main/skills). The setup prompt in [Getting started](/startups-getting-started/) points your agent to the ones it uses.

## What they need

- **The MCP server.** The skills read your intel, your page and your posts through the daily.dev [MCP server](/mcp-server/), so connect it first.
- **A paid seat.** You need a [paid seat](/startups-plans-and-boost-credits/#paid-seats) on a Squad with a daily.dev for Startups plan.

## Try it

- "Run `/daily-dev-content-ideas`. We shipped a new CLI this week."
- "Review this draft before I post it: `./posts/launch.md`"
- "Set up the daily routine for my Squad, two posts a week."
- "Improve my daily.dev profile."
