Three parallel trees documented the same ecosystem: omp-docs/skills/
(two overview pages), tools/npx-skills/ (10 pi-era npm pages), and
tools/vercel-labs-skills/ (11 CLI pages), plus a fourth leaderboard page
at engineering/skills-ecosystem.md. Verbatim overlap (identical SKILL.md
field tables in skills-spec.md vs skill-format.md; 13-agent vs 68-agent
copies of the same upstream table). Consolidated to four concept pages:
- skills/agent-skills.md: standard, format, loading, authoring (merges
skills-spec, skill-format, skill-file-structure, skill-loading,
best-practices, skills-vs-extensions)
- skills/skills-cli.md: CLI reference (merges commands, source-formats,
installation-scope, skill-discovery, lock-file, env-variables,
agent-support, related-links)
- skills/store-wiring.md: moved, fleet ops, links retargeted
- skills/ecosystem.md: replaces skills-ecosystem.md; stale 2026-08-12
top-50 table dropped, replaced with a live top-10 re-queried from the
skills.sh API tonight and the API contract re-verified (zero-based,
200/page, {skills,total,hasMore,page}, total 9909)
All facts re-verified 2026-10-19 against primary sources:
agentskills.io, vercel-labs/skills README + src/cli.ts (command set,
--full-depth) + src/skill-lock.ts (v3 lock, XDG path, wipe-on-old),
live skills.sh API. Deleted superseded core/index-doc.md (old pi-era
docs index). Retargeted all inbound links (tools/index, engineering x3,
packages x3, pi/skills, core/index). Pi-era npm skill packaging is
listed as archived under /pi/.

Skills Ecosystem
The open agent-skills ecosystem is a set of registries over the shared Agent Skills standard, installed with the Skills CLI.
Registries
| Registry | Focus |
|---|---|
| skills.sh | Primary registry and all-time install leaderboard. |
| agentskill.sh | Broad directory/marketplace. |
| officialskills.sh | Skills from major organizations. |
| qaskills.sh | QA and testing skills. |
skills.sh leaderboard API
Fetch the all-time ranking programmatically:
curl 'https://skills.sh/api/skills/all-time/0'
Response is { skills, total, hasMore, page }. Pagination is zero-based,
200 skills per page (GET /api/skills/all-time/{page}). Each entry carries
source, skillId, name, installs, weeklyInstalls (last ~8 weeks), and
isOfficial. Verified live 2026-10-19: page 0 returned 200 entries,
total 9909, hasMore true.

Top 10 by all-time installs, queried from the API above:

mattpocock/skills dominates the workflow/design middle of the board; a single
find-skills out-installs the next several combined. Vendor suites (Lark, Azure)
that filled ranks 12-50 in the 2026-08-12 snapshot have since dropped out of the
head, so this page keeps only a live top-10 rather than a full 50-row table that
rots between queries. Re-query the API above for a current census.
