Debugging-method traps: run the discriminating experiment first, read build logs bottom-up, treat an empty actual as unwritten, audit shared handles before removing a feature, read commit history critically. Use when a fix is not converging.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 1,477 stars are split between them (about 148 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 66/100 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 dfcbe3208170, 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
