dbskill is a pack of 30 business skills you install into a coding agent. Not code skills. Business ones: pricing diagnosis, competitor benchmarking, content topic development, headline and short-video hook optimization, decision logging. The content was mined from roughly 16,000 public tweets by the creator and distilled into structured knowledge the agent can call.

Install is one npx command and it works with Claude Code, Codex, Dou Bao, WorkBuddy, and other agents that support the skills format. There is nothing to host and no API key of its own. One thing to know before you try it: the skills are written in Chinese, so the frameworks and the prompts you get back are in Chinese unless you translate them.

The value is the structure rather than the intelligence. Instead of improvising a prompt every time you want to pressure-test pricing, you call a skill that already knows which questions to ask in which order. Solo founders and content creators are the real audience. Engineering teams will not find much here.

The catch is the license, and it is a real one. This is CC BY-NC 4.0, which means non-commercial use only. Using these skills to run your own business is exactly the commercial use that license restricts, and you need separate authorization from the author. That is an odd shape for a business toolkit, so read the terms before you build a workflow on it.

Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid

source available

What's Free

All 30 skills, installed with a single command. No account, no API key, no server. The skill files are plain text you can read before you run anything.

The License Catch

CC BY-NC 4.0. Personal and non-commercial use is permitted; commercial use requires separate authorization from the author. This is not an OSI-approved open source license, and the non-commercial clause is the whole story for a toolkit aimed at entrepreneurs. Free to try, restricted to deploy.

Deployment Cost

$0 to install. Requires Node.js and npm. Version 2.18.22 added automatic daily version checking with a one-command update, so keeping current is not a chore.

The Real Cost

Agent tokens and language. The skills run through whatever agent you already pay for, and they are written in Chinese, so an English-speaking user is paying translation overhead on every output.

Who Should Skip It

Engineering teams. These are business analysis and content marketing frameworks, not development tooling.

Free to install but licensed CC BY-NC 4.0, so commercial use needs the author's permission. Read the license before building a business workflow on it.

What to do by team size

Solo
free for personal use; commercial use needs author authorization
Small team
free to trial, but the non-commercial clause blocks most real business use
Medium team
Skip unless you get written commercial authorization
Large team
Skip; the license does not support commercial deployment
