Karpathy-inspired coding discipline for AI agents: think before coding, keep changes simple, edit surgically, and define verifiable success criteria before implementation.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 73 stars are split between them (about 7 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 57/100 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 b622384a0ade, 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
