Agent Skill

Pydicom skill

pydicomforyourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skillsbundled/skills/pydicom/SKILL.md

Python library for working with DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) files. Use this skill when reading, writing, or modifying medical imaging data in DICOM format, extracting pixel data from medical images (CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound), anonymizing DICOM files, working with DICOM metadata and tags, converting DICOM images to other formats, handling compressed DICOM data, or processing medical imaging datasets. Applies to tasks involving medical image analysis, PACS systems, radiology workflows, and healthcare imaging applications.

Skills CLI (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others)

npx skills add https://github.com/foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills --skill pydicom

Claude Code, by hand (all projects)

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/foryourhealth111-pixel/Vibe-Skills.git /tmp/Vibe-Skills
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R /tmp/Vibe-Skills/bundled/skills/pydicom ~/.claude/skills/pydicom

For one project only, copy the folder into .claude/skills/ in that project instead. The agent picks it up when a task matches its description.

What it costs your context
