A Muse agent skill for Unsplash's free stock photo library: search photos, browse the latest, look up a photo's details, browse a photographer's portfolio or a topic, and download images. Downloads honor Unsplash's guidelines — the download endpoint is hit first so the photographer gets credited, and images are downloaded and self-hosted rather than hotlinked, with the photographer credit shown. Read-only at the Client-ID tier. Uses a free Unsplash access key (unsplash.com/developers), kept in Muse's secure vault. Rate limits: ~50 requests/hour for demo apps, 5,000/hour for approved production apps. Draft: written from Unsplash's public API docs, not yet live-tested end-to-end — this listing's unverified status reflects that. No secrets in the repo.

Install
Prerequisites: A free Unsplash developer app access key (unsplash.com/developers), kept in your Muse's secure vault (never paste secrets here). Rate limits: ~50 requests/hour for demo apps. No GitHub account needed unless listed here. Install "Unsplash Connector for Muse" for me. A Muse agent skill for Unsplash's free stock photo library: search photos, browse the latest, look up photo details, browse photographer portfolios or topics, download images with photographer credit. Repository: https://github.com/bluman1/muse-connectors/tree/main/connectors/unsplash 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and any helper files) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "unsplash". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. save my Unsplash access key in the vault). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a skill?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the skill up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a skill before installing it.
