What it does
The skill gives the agent access to daily rankings of agent skills gathered from several ecosystems. Data comes from skills.sh, ClawHub, Tencent SkillHub, GitHub and social platforms, and each metric is kept in open CSV files with per-platform raw numbers. When the user asks which skill to install, what is trending or how popular a given skill is, the agent reads the right list and answers with rank, raw numbers, an install command and a link. There are nine lists: overall score, installs, rising, buzz, active, official and others. The skill recommends and links, but installs nothing itself.
Who it is for. For people choosing agent skills who want to compare popularity and momentum from data.
Good fit when
- You need to pick a skill for a task and gauge how popular it is
- You want to see what is trending or rising fast this week
- You compare two skills by installs across platforms
Not a fit when
- You need to install a skill: it only recommends and hands you the command
- You need a full search across every existing skill rather than the per-list top 100
Example request
Which browser automation skill is more popular now and how many installs does it haveLimitations
Only the top 100 per list is published; there is no full catalog of every skill. Numbers from different platforms are not summed but shown side by side, and an empty cell means not measured, not zero. Data refreshes daily, so for accuracy the agent reads the current CSV rather than a cache. The data license is CC BY 4.0 and republishing requires attribution to the source.
How to disable. Remove the best-skills folder from your agent's skills directory.
FAQ
Are numbers from different platforms summed?
No, installs from different platforms are shown side by side, not added, and each metric keeps its per-platform raw value.
Does the skill install other skills?
No, it only advises and hands over the install command with a link; the user installs it themselves.

README in short
The README describes Best Agent Skills as daily-updated rankings of agent skills that merge data from skills.sh, ClawHub, Tencent SkillHub, GitHub and social platforms. Unlike single registries, it shows global installs, China installs and mentions side by side, with raw numbers kept in open CSV files for verification. There are nine lists and an overall score, and history is available by date. Data can be read directly, handed to an agent via an llms.txt file, or installed as a skill from the repository. The data license is CC BY 4.0.

Original SKILL.md
--- name: best-skills description: Daily cross-platform rankings of AI agent skills (skills.sh, ClawHub, Tencent SkillHub, GitHub, X/HN/Bluesky). Use when the user asks which agent skill to install, what is trending, whether a skill is popular or trusted, or wants to compare skills. Read-only public CSV data; it recommends and links, it does not install anything. --- # Best Agent Skills Nine Top-100 lists, refreshed daily, with the raw per-platform numbers kept next to every score. ## When to use - Which skill should I install for browser automation / PDF -> best-100.csv, filter by description and skill - What is trending / new this week -> trending-7d.csv, rising-stars.csv - Is a skill popular, maintained, official -> best-100.csv, official-100.csv, most-active.csv ## Workflow 1. Fetch llms.txt first. It is the current column dictionary and the rules. 2. Pick the list, fetch the matching CSV. Parse by header name; an empty cell means not measured, not zero. 3. Answer with rank, the raw numbers, install and url. ## Rules - Never add install counts across platforms; present them side by side. - Absent from a list is not zero; lists are truncated at 100.
