What this skill does
Repo Research Scan public GitHub repos for agent skills (SKILL.md ecosystem), dev practices (git/PR/CI workflows from real teams), or code patterns (framework idioms, config layouts) — then merge validated insights into the local catalog with full attribution. Manual extraction is unsustainable. The agent-skill ecosystem alone has 1,400+ repos as of April 2026, and that's before counting the repos worth scanning for their CI, testing, or i18n setups. This skill makes the scan repeatable and the merge auditable.
