The fastest-rising skills, scanned
This is the first Skills Radar. Each week: the Claude Code skills gaining GitHub stars fastest, and what two security scanners found in them.
Rising fastest
rea by morluto
+1,687 stars a day · 315,426 stars
Reverse engineering with agents, from how an app behaves down to its native binaries.
Scan: One flag from each scanner, on a release script that fetches a pull request and runs a check. Nothing harmful.

+1,562 stars a day · 15,624 stars
Detailed, interactive isometric illustrations of machines and systems, drawn as SVG with optional WebGL. It is 10 days old.
Scan: Flagged by both scanners, for a WebGL shader compile() read as eval and a .env line in .gitignore read as credential access. False alarms.

+1,302 stars a day · 166,617 stars
Makes your agent write less code, like the laziest senior developer in the room.
Scan: Clean on both scanners, all 6 skills.
mattpocock/skills by mattpocock
+1,151 stars a day · 295,668 stars
Matt Pocock’s own engineering skills, straight from his .agents folder.
Scan: One flag from each scanner across 38 skills: fetching a ticket from the issue tracker, and a guardrail skill that installs its own safety hook. Nothing harmful.
ECC by affaan-m
+1,037 stars a day · 282,961 stars
A large harness of skills, memory and security tooling for Claude Code and other agents.
Scan: 314 skills. The flags (26 from Cisco, 20 from SkillSpector) sit in documentation examples, like a sample database address and the insecure code a security skill teaches you to avoid.
What the scanners found
Every skill on the radar that ships a skill file is now scanned with Cisco skill-scanner and NVIDIA SkillSpector: 87 repos, 3,044 skills. Flags are common, and 65 of the 87 repos have at least one, but most are patterns, not problems. Two findings are real and worth knowing:
