ai4s-research/ai4s-skillsSkill
Use when the user has a vague research direction and wants to explore feasible specific topics. Outputs a structured analysis with candidate topics, innovation/feasibility scoring, and a pre-survey of 20–30 representative works. Single-stage, no Python runtime.
Why this score
This repo hosts 7 skills, so its 245 stars are split between them (about 35 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 50/100 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
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit 744ab2049a7b, 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
