3 Claude skills for AI startup founders to try first
From PR reviews to landing pages and SEO audits — three SKILL.md skills worth trying first, and what each one is for.
By CB Patel
If you're building a startup with two engineers, three product people, and a lot of AI tooling, the difference between "we ship fast" and "we ship slow" is mostly your prompt hygiene. Skills (SKILL.md files) are a cheap way to lock in that hygiene across your team. Here are three worth installing first.
- code-review-master
What it does: Reviews pull requests the way a senior reviewer would: picks up missing tests, unsafe patterns, performance regressions, and style drift, with file-by-file inline comments and an actionable summary you can paste into GitHub.
Why founders care: A structured first pass turns your review into "agree/override" instead of a read-through from scratch.

- landing-page-designer
What it does: Plans a conversion-first landing page section by section — hero, problem, solution, features, social proof, pricing, FAQ, final CTA — with copy, a layout spec, and visual-hierarchy notes for each, taking it from wireframe to Figma to code.
Why founders care: Bad landing-page copy kills conversion. The "let's draft a hero" meeting goes much faster with a real first draft to react to.

- seo-content-optimizer
What it does: Audits an existing blog post against your target keyword: structure, internal links, meta description, schema. Outputs a checklist of fixes.
Why founders care: Content marketing is a slow-burning fire that pays out months later. This skill makes sure the fires you do start are well-built.

Installing all three
Run this from your repository root, then commit the .claude/skills folder so everyone on the team gets the same skills:
for s in code-review-master landing-page-designer seo-content-optimizer; do curl -fsSL --create-dirs -o .claude/skills/$s/SKILL.md https://claudeskil.com/skills/$s/SKILL.md; done
Total install time: under 90 seconds.
Once installed, the skills are active for all matching tasks in the project. You don't need to "trigger" them — Claude reads each skill's name and description and loads the one whose description matches the task. You can also run one directly by typing its name, e.g. /seo-content-optimizer.
