About SkillForge

SkillForge is a public registry for AI agent skills—SKILL.md packages that teach coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, and similar tools) how to perform concrete tasks. Instead of hunting across scattered GitHub repos, you search one catalog, open a skill page, and install with a single CLI command.

What we index

Our crawler searches public GitHub for SKILL.md files, parses frontmatter and body content, runs a safety pattern scan, and publishes skills that pass auto-publish policy. High-risk findings go to a review queue. Canonical skill URLs never include a trailing SKILL.md segment.

How install works

On any skill page, copy the install command and run it locally, for example npx skillforge add owner/repo/skill. The CLI fetches the skill from the upstream repository; SkillForge does not host arbitrary binaries.

Rankings & metrics

Browse by overall popularity, daily, weekly, or hot windows. When CLI install volume is meaningful, metrics are labeled live; otherwise figures are estimated from repository stars and clearly marked so rankings stay honest.

Open source

The SkillForge application is open source under MIT. Contributions and issue reports are welcome on GitHub.
