How licensing works

theskillmd.com is an index, not a host. We store metadata — name, description, industry, source repository, star count and license status — and link every skill back to the repository it came from. We do not copy or redistribute skill contents.

What we store

• Metadata only: name, description, industry, source repo, stars, license status.
• A link back to the original repository for every single entry.
• No SKILL.md bodies, no scripts, no assets are hosted here.

License status labels

Verified

We read the LICENSE file in the skill's directory (or its repository) and identified a recognised open-source licence such as Apache-2.0 or MIT.

Unverified

We have not yet confirmed the licence for this entry. Treat it as all rights reserved and check the source repository before use.

Link only

The skill is under a proprietary or source-available licence that forbids redistribution. We link to the official repository and nothing else.

If you are an author

Every entry credits and links to your repository. If you would like a skill removed from the index, contact us and it will be taken down — no questions asked. → Contact us

Before you use a skill

Licence status here is a convenience signal, not legal advice. Always check the licence in the source repository before using a skill commercially.
