[Integration] zhuyansen/agent-skills-hub — youdotcom-oss/agent-skills in EXTRA_REPOS curated collection list

Why selected

AgentSkillsHub is an open-source directory of Claude Skills, MCP servers, Codex skills, and agent tools (355 stars, created 2026-03, pushed today, ~130k indexed projects, live site agentskillshub.top refreshed every 8 hours). This is exactly the priority category: a project that aggregates and curates agent skills and MCP servers.

Its collection pipeline has a manually curated EXTRA_REPOS list in backend/app/scheduler/jobs.py ("Specific repos to always include (manually curated)") that currently holds ~25 entries including sub-100-star repos (e.g. sukilll/great-product-skills at 81 stars). The maintainer's own history shows this exact change shape repeatedly ("Add JeffLi1993/seo-audit-skill to EXTRA_REPOS", "Add cloudflare/skills to extra repos", "Add 3 repos to EXTRA_REPOS..."). Adding youdotcom-oss/agent-skills gets the official You.com skills repo (you-web, you-research, you-finance, you-discover, you-free + MCP server configs for 10 platforms) indexed into the directory with security grading, scenario pages, and search — durable distribution visibility.

Verified: no you.com / youdotcom presence in the directory today (checked llms.txt, live search, and repo code). No competing-provider filter blocks it (the content-policy filter only targets political/propaganda clones).

Candidate evaluation summary

Candidate	Stars	Distribution surface	Verdict
zhuyansen/agent-skills-hub (selected)	355	EXTRA_REPOS curated list in 8-hour sync pipeline	Curated catalog entry, repo-native, 4-line diff matching maintainer's own commits
qufei1993/skills-hub	1599	CURATED_REPOS in featured-skills fetch script	Rejected — output star-sorted top-300 (min 46k stars); 66-star agent-skills always sliced out → no-op
rcarmo/piclaw	849	MCP adapter docs + starter config	Rejected — built-in web search is SearXNG (competing default); empty starter config means an entry isn't opt-in
narumiruna/pi-extensions	511	Pi extension package monorepo	Rejected — heavy contribution gates; Pi platform already covered by @youdotcom-oss/pi

Integration type (final)

Curated catalog / registry entry (repo-native equivalent of a plugin-marketplace listing): youdotcom-oss/agent-skills added to EXTRA_REPOS in backend/app/scheduler/jobs.py, following the existing entry + comment format.

Distribution surface leveraged

Manually curated EXTRA_REPOS list consumed by the 6-phase GitHub sync (scheduler/jobs.py), which fetches, classifies, quality-scores, security-grades, and publishes entries to the live directory (agentskillshub.top) every 8 hours.

Setup / env vars

None — catalog data change only; no runtime code, no secrets.

Usage example

After the next sync, agentskillshub.top search for "you.com" / "web search" surfaces the You.com agent skills entry (5 skills + MCP configs), security-graded, with install path npx skills add youdotcom-oss/agent-skills. The directory also feeds an MCP server (npx -y @agentskillshub/mcp) and CLI (npx @agentskillshub/cli search) that agents use to discover and audit skills.

Fallback / error handling

n/a — additive data entry; the sync pipeline already tolerates per-repo fetch failures.

Tests run / validation performed

• python -m py_compile app/scheduler/jobs.py — pass
• AST parse of EXTRA_REPOS: 27 entries, no duplicates, new entry present, last-3 ordering correct
• ruff check --config backend/ruff.toml app/scheduler/jobs.py: 47 pre-existing baseline errors before AND after the change (identical) — no new lint issues introduced
• Default behavior unchanged: additive list entry only (1 file, +4 lines)
