Why this exists

Every skills registry only sees its own ecosystem. skills.sh counts Claude/Vercel CLI installs, ClawHub counts OpenClaw downloads, Tencent SkillHub counts installs from China — and none of them see social buzz. Best Skills merges all of these views into one cross-ecosystem picture: for each skill you can see global installs, China installs, and social mentions side by side. No other ranking does this.

• 9 rankings, refreshed daily
• Raw numbers preserved — every CSV keeps per-platform original counts so anyone can verify or re-rank
• Never adds apples to oranges — cross-platform numbers are shown side by side, ranked by within-platform percentile composite (see methodology)

See docs/methodology.md for data sources, normalization rules, and known limitations.

Data sources & attribution

Install/download counts are collected from public endpoints of skills.sh, ClawHub (per its third-party directory policy; skill pages link back to their canonical ClawHub listing), Tencent SkillHub, and the GitHub API. Social signals come from X, Hacker News (Algolia), Bluesky, and GitHub search. This project is not endorsed by or affiliated with any of these platforms. Counts reflect each platform's own methodology and are never summed across platforms.
