The agentic layer, by structure

What a coding agent can be taught and what it can be plugged into — parsed rather than listed. Which instructions everyone writes independently, which tool names are becoming a convention, and which repositories are quietly building a standard library.

Read from the index 2026-09-18

This page reads the files themselves: every SKILL.md and every server manifest in the index, parsed. Which names recur, which tools are becoming a convention, which repositories ship the most — the shape of the layer rather than its league table. The league tables are the daily boards: skills by installs and servers by stars and downloads.

One owner means every copy sits under a single account — a file being carried between someone's own projects, not a convention anyone adopted. Adopted means almost every copy has a different owner, which is the only evidence of a real convention this corpus contains.

Tool names converging on a standard

Read off the tool lists of the 6,537 servers that document one, which is 21% of the registry — so these are floors. A name here is one that more than one publisher chose without coordinating.

Where skills and distinct names differ, the repository ships the same instruction more than once under different paths.

Every skill has a page: browse all 69,865. So does every server: 31,321 of them.
