stbenjam/skillsawSkill
Update a repository to the newest skillsaw — upgrade the install, report new rules and their findings in your repo, and bump version pins (GitHub Action SHAs, Makefile targets, pre-commit hooks). Use when a new skillsaw release is out and you want its latest checks.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 67 stars are split between them (about 7 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 58/100 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 bf83a4fa0028, 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
