smol-machines/smolvmSkill
Drives smolvm programmatically over its local HTTP API (smolvm serve) instead of the CLI: create machines, exec and stream commands, move files in and out, and tear them down. Use when building a client, harness, agent tool or MCP backend over smolvm; when a create call is accepted but the machine behaves as if a field was ignored; when a file uploaded over the API has disappeared; when an exec that failed still returned HTTP 200; or when choosing between the Unix socket and loopback TCP. Do not use it as a substitute for the CLI in a shell script, and do not bind a plain listener beyond loopb
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 6,769 stars are split between them (about 677 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 73/100 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 c925bfd05cf6, 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
