Selection method

Define what “best” means before ranking

There is no universal winner across jobs. Selections are reviewed for usefulness, evidence, maintenance, risk, and alternative value.

Clear job and output

The source explains when to use the Skill, what to bring, and what a useful result looks like.

Evidence beyond popularity

Repository popularity is contextual. Documentation, source depth, maintenance, and test evidence carry more weight.

Explicit exclusion rules

Thin source files, unclear identity, abandoned projects, or unbounded external actions are excluded.
