Why this score
This repo hosts 4 skills, so its 1,763 stars are split between them (about 441 each) for scoring.

Security
Scanned Oct 21, 2026 at commit 54d733e1d989, 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
