SkillWire

SkillWire is a searchable catalog for coding-agent skills that provides tools to test and evaluate local skill performance.

SkillWire is a searchable catalog for coding-agent skills designed to help developers evaluate how specific instructions affect AI coding outputs. Users can search for skills, inspect their source code, download them as ZIP files, and set up local evaluations using a CLI tool. The platform facilitates blind A/B testing by freezing tasks, starting files, and CLI settings before running comparisons across two arms. It supports local file inspection, JSON receipt verification, and human review verdicts without requiring external API keys or hosted evaluation services. Developers can also vote on community skills daily without logging in.
