# Skill Playground A zero-backend web app to run any skill in this repo with **your own Claude API key**. Pick a skill → it becomes a form → fill it in → Claude executes the skill's instructions and streams the result. Your key is stored only in your browser (`localStorage`) and sent directly to `api.anthropic.com`. Nothing touches a server we own. ## Run locally ```bash node web/build-skills.mjs # regenerate skills.json from skills/ cd web && python3 -m http.server 8000 # open http://localhost:8000 ``` > It must be served over HTTP (not opened as a `file://` URL) so `fetch('skills.json')` works. Paste a key from [console.anthropic.com](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys) and run. ## How it works - `build-skills.mjs` scans `../skills/*/SKILL.md`, parses the frontmatter and the **Required Inputs** section, and writes `skills.json` (the UI's data source). - `app.js` sends the skill's instruction body as the `system` prompt and the filled-in fields as the user message, using the Anthropic Messages API with `anthropic-dangerous-direct-browser-access: true` for direct browser calls. ## Keep it in sync Re-run `node web/build-skills.mjs` whenever skills are added or edited, and commit the updated `skills.json`. (Or wire it into CI / a pre-commit hook.) ## Deploy It's fully static — host the `web/` folder on GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel, or any static host. No environment variables, no server.
