daily.dev for 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 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: 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.
