SkillPilot is a discovery and monitoring client for open-source AI developer tools: agents, Claude skills, MCP servers, CLIs and repositories. It shows you what exists, what changed, and what needs attention, and it links every entry back to its source on GitHub. Find the right tool Browse a catalog organised into 12 categories, from Development, AI Agents and Automation to Marketing, Design, Security, Data and Research, RAG and Knowledge, LLM Ops and Token and Cost Optimization. Search by name or description, open a category to see its subcategory shelves, and tap any card for the owner, type, description, tags, a short README excerpt quoted from the project, and a direct link to the repository. See what is new The New tab surfaces a Daily Winner, the latest releases and the tools that are rising fastest this week, so you can check the ecosystem in a minute. Keep your stack healthy The Browse tab gives your monitored tools a single health score with tiles for updates, breaking changes and security issues, plus a list of priority alerts. My Skills lists every tool you track with its status, installed and latest version and an authority score out of 100. Open a tool to read its health summary and security posture, what changed between versions, a side by side version comparison and a recommended action. Act on alerts The Alerts inbox groups open alerts by severity (Critical, High, Medium, Low), names the alert type, and links to the evidence on GitHub.
