Why this score

This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 5,085 stars are split between them (about 509 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 65/100 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 7ed6377f0efb, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

What its code does:

• Reads environment variables and sends network requests with them API clients do this to send your key to the service. Check which service it talks to.scripts/extract_metadata.py, scripts/search_pubmed.py and 2 more
• Makes network requestsSKILL.md

Web addresses in its code:

• doi.orgscripts/doi_to_bibtex.py:35
• api.crossref.orgreferences/metadata_extraction.md:132
• eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.govreferences/metadata_extraction.md:206
• arxiv.orgscripts/extract_metadata.py:235
• export.arxiv.orgreferences/metadata_extraction.md:290
• api.datacite.orgreferences/metadata_extraction.md:340

These are the sites named in the code, so it's where your data could go. It isn't a complete list: code can build addresses while it runs, and a few of these may be links rather than calls. Whatever you send also goes to the AI model you use.

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
