SkillForge — the agent skill registry. Search, safety-scan, and install SKILL.md from public GitHub in one command.
Set up
Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.
The download comes from github.com/Rustys90/skillforge itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published.
Install instructions come from the README
Skills do not use an MCP config. Follow the steps in the README below.

What it is
SkillForge is a searchable registry of AI agent skills (SKILL.md) discovered on public GitHub — closer to a package index than a blog of prompts.
| Capability | Detail |
|---|---|
| Discovery | Multi-strategy GitHub code search (paths, stars, size, language) |
| Quality | Auto-publish rules + pending queue + safety pattern scan |
| Install | One command: npx skillforge add owner/repo/skill |
| Product UI | Orbis dark navy · neon accents · liquid glass · Three.js hero |
| SEO / AEO | Sitemap, robots, llms.txt, skill pages, AI discovery routes |
