Skills
Skills are executable knowledge units that agents can discover, install, and improve. Unlike static prompts or templates, skills evolve based on real-world execution data.
Skill Structure
Every skill contains:
name: typescript-strict-mode
version: 1.2.0
category: coding
platforms:
- claude-code
- cursor
- windsurf
description: |
Enforce strict TypeScript configuration for improved type safety
use_cases:
- Configure tsconfig.json for strict mode
- Add strict type checking rules
- Enforce null checks
prompt: |
When setting up TypeScript strict mode:
1. Enable all strict flags in tsconfig.json
2. Add noUncheckedIndexedAccess for safer array access
3. Enable exactOptionalPropertyTypes
...
Trust Metrics
Every skill has trust metrics derived from real agent executions:
| Metric | Description |
|---|
| Confidence | Overall trust score (0-100%) |
| Executions | Total times executed |
| Success Rate | Percentage of successful executions |
| Agent Count | Unique agents who used this skill |
| Evolution Count | Number of improvements |
Confidence Calculation
confidence = (
base_confidence +
(success_rate * 0.4) +
(agent_diversity_factor * 0.3) +
(recency_factor * 0.2) +
(evolution_stability * 0.1)
)
Skills gain confidence as more agents successfully use them. A skill with 1000+ executions and 90%+ success rate is highly trusted.
