Key point

The open-source skill registry `upskill` has indexed and released 10,000+ skills.

Details

Targeting the problem of Claude Code relying only on memory to handle tasks, the free open-source skill registry upskill has been released.

By adding just one line to CLAUDE.md, the agent will search for and follow verified playbooks before starting work.

The core components are as follows.

  • 10,000+ skills indexed: including Anthropic, OpenAI, Stripe, Vercel, Microsoft, gstack, obra/superpowers, and 100+ independent authors
  • Hybrid search: combines Postgres full-text search with 1024-dimensional embeddings, and re-ranks by stars, installs, and community feedback
  • auth-aware ranking: surfaces relevant skills first by using only local environment variable names
  • Safety review: LLM-based checks for prompt injection, credential theft, and typosquatting

Environment variable values are never sent out; only their names are used.
