caching
proyecto26/system-design-skillsSkill
This skill should be used when the user asks about a "caching strategy", "cache invalidation", "what to cache", "read-through vs write-through vs write-back", "cache eviction" (LRU/LFU/TTL), "Redis vs Memcached", "stale reads", or hits "thundering herd", "cache stampede", "cache penetration", or "hot key" problems. Use it whenever a design is read-heavy or a datastore is overloaded by reads, even if the user doesn't say "cache".
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 93 stars are split between them (about 9 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 48/100 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 Nov 4, 2026 at commit a70772efb956, 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
