Why this score

This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 32,552 stars are split between them (about 3,255 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 86/100 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
