Why
Competitive analysis (2026-06-11) against Iris Wei's growth-playbook catalog (gingiris.tools/skills) surfaced a clear distribution asymmetry:
- We out-build her ~75× — 447 plugins / 3,023 skills / 425 npm packages vs. her ~38 skills.
- But we under-distribute. She lists every skill on HuggingFace (datasets) + skills.sh (
npx skills add) — the two highest-velocity install surfaces, each with its own discovery/SEO/social graph — plus 4 languages, per-skill install-count social proof, and a Pro tier.
- We are confined to our own site + npm +
/plugin marketplace add. We get zero benefit from the skills.sh / HuggingFace discovery graphs.
This is the highest-ROI, lowest-effort move from the analysis: meet installs where the velocity already is.
Scope (first child — claude-23jb)
List the marketplace's top skills on skills.sh and HuggingFace Skills.
huggingface/skills already uses the .claude-plugin/marketplace.json pattern that's compatible with how we structure SKILL.md, so the porting cost is low.
Epic (claude-3f7u) — future children, not yet filed
Surface per-skill install counts as the card hook · ship a "start here" meta-router entry skill · bind operator credibility to flagship skills · stand up a Pro tier · localize the top 20 (CN/JA/KO).
