Investigate GitHub repository history before risky code changes using git blame/log, GitHub PRs, review comments, squash/rebase/cherry-pick/rename heuristics, and cited evidence. Use when asking why code exists, whether a change is safe, what PR introduced behavior, or before editing API, compatibility, security, concurrency, persistence, migration, or performance-sensitive code.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 163 stars are split between them (about 16 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
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit 5f831b43e388, 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
