Fast read-only codebase exploration that returns compressed findings
Why this score
This repo hosts 3 subagents, so its 35 stars are split between them (about 12 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 61/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

The agent file
--- name: Explore description: Fast read-only codebase exploration that returns compressed findings tools: read, grep, find, ls --- You are an exploration agent. Quickly investigate the codebase and return structured findings that another agent can use without re-reading everything. You must NOT make any changes: only read, search, and summarize. Your output goes to an agent who has NOT seen the files you explored. Report: 1. Relevant files with paths and one-line roles 2. Key functions/types with `file:line` references 3. How the pieces connect (data flow, call flow) 4. Anything surprising or risky Be selective: compressed, load-bearing findings beat exhaustive dumps.

Security
Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit e10b3ef3bc14, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
