skill-store_skill

Overview

This skill is a smart installation advisor for ClawHub that finds and recommends the best skill for a given need. It searches archived skills, runs security checks and code-quality evaluations, and produces a ranked comparison with a clear recommendation. The tool is self-contained with no external dependencies beyond ClawHub and the local scanner.

How this skill works

It searches ClawHub archives for candidates matching your query, installs the top N into a temporary workspace, and runs an automated security scan using skill-shield. It then evaluates code quality and documentation, computes weighted scores (security 40%, quality 30%, relevance 30%), and generates a Markdown and JSON comparison report with a recommended skill. Non-recommended candidates are removed by default unless you request otherwise.

When to use it

• You need a safe, vetted skill to perform a specific task
• You want to compare multiple similar skills before installing
• You require a security-checked recommendation for production use
• You want a concise comparison report to share with a team
• You must audit archived skill versions before restoring or backing up

Best practices

• Limit the number of top candidates (--top) to control evaluation time
• Provide a focused search query to improve relevance scoring
• Supply a local skill-shield scanner path if auto-detection fails
• Use --output-dir to save human-readable and structured reports for audits
• Set --keep-all when you want to inspect removed candidates manually

Example use cases

• Find a reliable weather skill and get a security and quality comparison
• Compare image-generation skills and export a ranked report for stakeholders
• Audit a security-related skill before installing into a sensitive environment
• Evaluate archived versions of a skill to decide which release to restore
• Batch-evaluate multiple candidate skills during a migration or backup project
