Web Quality Skills

An (unofficial) comprehensive collection of Agent Skills for optimizing web projects based on Google Lighthouse guidelines and Core Web Vitals best practices.

Stack-agnostic. Works with any framework: React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, plain HTML, and more.

Why web quality skills?

While interface guidelines tell you what to build, Web Quality Skills tell you how to build it performantly, accessibly, and optimally for search engines. These skills encode the collective wisdom from:

• 150+ Lighthouse audits across Performance, Accessibility, SEO, and Best Practices
• Core Web Vitals optimization patterns (LCP, INP, CLS)
• Real-world performance engineering experience
• WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards
• Modern SEO requirements

Quick start

Installation

add-skill is a powerful CLI tool that lets you install agent skills onto your coding agents from git repositories. Whether you're using OpenCode, Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, the add-skill tool makes it simple to extend your agent's capabilities with specialized instruction sets. Use add-skill to automate release notes, create pull requests, integrate with external tools, and more. Simply run npx add-skill to get started.

npx skills add addyosmani/web-quality-skills

or

npx add-skill addyosmani/web-quality-skills

Or manually:

cp -r skills/* ~/.claude/skills/

Claude Code (plugin)

Install as a versioned, namespaced plugin from inside Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add addyosmani/web-quality-skills
/plugin install web-quality-skills@addy-web-quality-skills

Skills are then namespaced (e.g. /web-quality-skills:performance) and update with /plugin update. The plugin reads the same skills/ directory as the manual copy above — no duplication.

Codex

Install directly via the Codex plugin marketplace (Codex CLI v0.122+):

codex plugin marketplace add addyosmani/web-quality-skills

Once installed, invoke skills in chat using @ (e.g. @performance, @accessibility). See docs/codex-setup.md for local installation and troubleshooting.

Gemini CLI

Install directly via Gemini CLI extensions:

gemini extensions install https://github.com/addyosmani/web-quality-skills

Skills are auto-discovered by Gemini and activate when prompts match their description. See docs/gemini-setup.md for workspace mode and troubleshooting.

claude.ai

Add skills to your project knowledge or paste the SKILL.md contents into your conversation.

Usage
