# Aaria > Battle-tested Agent Skills for serious builders. Aaria is a professional marketplace for Agent Skills: portable workflows, packaged as files with a SKILL.md at the root, that an AI coding agent loads to follow a proven production process. Every admitted skill passes a ten-point admission gate before it is listed; skills still in validation are shown separately for transparency and are not for sale. Pricing and checkout are not live yet, so the site presents no purchase path. ## Key pages - [Home](https://aaria.dev/): what an Agent Skill is, featured catalog, installation, and support. - [Catalog](https://aaria.dev/skills/): all skills, split into admitted listings and skills still in validation. - [Standards](https://aaria.dev/standards/): the full ten-point admission gate. - [Scrolldio](https://aaria.dev/skills/scrolldio/): admitted skill. Turns a business brief into a production-ready cinematic scroll website using the AI tools you already pay for. - [Stillwake](https://aaria.dev/skills/stillwake/): in validation, not yet admitted. Turns existing static illustrations into restrained, QA-gated hover micro-motion. - [Journal](https://aaria.dev/blog/): articles on Agent Skills, AI coding agents, and honest web production. ## Articles - [How AI Coding Agents Build Cinematic Scroll Websites](https://aaria.dev/blog/ai-cinematic-scroll-websites/) (2026-07-22): A stage-by-stage look at how an AI coding agent produces a cinematic scroll website: brief, identity frame, coherent scenes, seam-safe motion, encoding, and browser QA. - [How to Evaluate an Agent Skill Before You Install It](https://aaria.dev/blog/how-to-evaluate-an-agent-skill/) (2026-07-15): A practical routine to vet an AI agent skill: read the SKILL.md, audit the scripts, check declared capabilities, and trust graded runs over self-report. - [What Are Agent Skills? A Plain Guide to the SKILL.md Format](https://aaria.dev/blog/what-are-agent-skills/) (2026-07-08): An Agent Skill is a folder of instructions with SKILL.md at its root that your AI agent loads to run a proven workflow: plain files you can read, not a black box. - [Evidence, Not Prompt Dumps: What a Verified Agent Skills Marketplace Must Prove](https://aaria.dev/blog/verified-agent-skills-marketplace-evidence/) (2026-05-20): A verified agent skills marketplace treats a listing as an evidence record, not a prompt shelf. Self-report fails; graded artifacts and an honest bench win. - [Claude Agent Skills, One Month In: Portable, Not Yet a Standard](https://aaria.dev/blog/claude-agent-skills-one-month-in/) (2025-11-18): One month after Claude Agent Skills shipped, the honest status: portable across Claude apps, Code, and the API, not yet a cross-agent open standard. - [What the Model Context Protocol Changed for AI Coding Agents](https://aaria.dev/blog/what-mcp-changed-for-ai-coding-agents/) (2025-03-12): Anthropic's Model Context Protocol connects an AI coding agent to your repo, database, and browser through one protocol. Here is what changed, and the catch. - [AI Coding Agents Workflow: From Autocomplete to a Reviewable Loop](https://aaria.dev/blog/ai-coding-agents-workflow/) (2024-10-05): An AI coding agents workflow in 2024 runs task to plan to reviewable diff. Give bounded context, inspect the plan, verify yourself, and keep the decisions and the release. - [Cinematic Website Performance: Set the Budget Before You Add Motion](https://aaria.dev/blog/cinematic-website-performance/) (2024-04-10): Cinematic website performance starts with a budget: know your LCP element, reserve geometry against layout shift, keep a coherent static page, and add motion on purpose. - [Scrollytelling Web Design: A Sequence, Not a Scroll Trick](https://aaria.dev/blog/scrollytelling-web-design/) (2023-11-20): Good scrollytelling web design treats scroll as a sequence of meaningful states on a readable static page, with predictable behavior and reduced-motion fallbacks. - [AI Pair Programming for Web Development: What It Actually Changes](https://aaria.dev/blog/ai-pair-programming-for-web-development/) (2023-07-15): AI pair programming for web development in 2023 speeds up boilerplate and debugging; it does not ship a website on its own. Where it helps, where it costs you. ## Admission gate (summary) A skill is listed only when all ten of these hold: the zip is under 50 MB and places SKILL.md at its root; SKILL.md has valid frontmatter with a name and description; every relative link resolves inside the bundle; the bundle carries no secrets, private paths, or harness-specific commands presented as universal; the skill states required capabilities, optional paid routes, fallback behavior, support boundaries, and commercial-use caveats; at least three representative prompts have been run with and without the skill; assertions are graded from generated artifacts, not self-reported; included scripts pass syntax checks and at least one smoke run where applicable; the listing makes no unsupported performance, revenue, compatibility, or customer claims; version, license, installation, and support documents match the shipped bundle.
