build-until-pass
Use when a build, typecheck, lint, or test command is failing and you want the agent to drive it to green on its own — run the check, read the errors, apply the smallest fix, re-run, repeat until exit code 0. Stops the human from being the while-loop (run → read error → fix one line → run again) and stops the agent from bulldozing huge speculative rewrites between checks.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 232 stars are split between them (about 23 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 52/100 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 21, 2026 at commit ebbc355b6db9, 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
