luongs3 Skill Atlas
A trust-rated index of public AI-agent skills, organized by job. Use it to answer: "I'm about to do X — which public skills should I load, and can I trust them?"
The skills themselves live in their original repos. This atlas catalogs which ones are good, where they come from, and how stale they are — the trust layer most skill lists skip.

How to use an entry
Each entry carries a trust tier plus source URL, reputation signal, and a
last_validated date. Workflow:
- Read the ranked list for your job. Prefer 🟢 A (canonical) and 🔵 B (community-proven).
- Treat 🟡 C as "read before trusting" and 🔴 D as "stale — caution."
- Load the public skill, then fork it private and adapt it to yourself. The public skill is the starting point; your private version encodes your voice, creds, and rules.
Trust tiers
- 🟢 A — Canonical: official vendor source (Anthropic, the spec author). Trust by authorship.
- 🔵 B — Community-proven: high reputation (stars/installs) and actively maintained.
- 🟡 C — Useful, verify: plausible but low/unknown reputation. Read before trusting.
- 🔴 D — Caution: stale (>12mo), unmaintained, or known-broken. Listed so you don't rediscover it.
Keeping it honest
scripts/revalidate.sh re-checks every source's liveness + GitHub stars/last-push (uses
gh for 5000 req/hr if available). An entry whose last_validated is >6 months old is
treated as C until reproven. A monthly GitHub Action runs this automatically and opens a
tracking issue if any source dies or goes stale — so the atlas can't silently rot. See
_meta/SCHEMA.md for the full schema and CONTRIBUTING.md for the trust bar on new entries.
