EDITORS’ PICKS THIS WEEK
Trending agent skills and MCP servers
The skills and MCP servers worth installing this week. Each one was source-checked and has an install page you can follow in Claude Code, Codex or Cursor.
Editorial picks, newest check first. We have no live star-growth feed, so there are no star counts and this is not a ranking.
Trending agent skills
Skills that got a new or rewritten install page this week.
- pstackLauren Tan’s (poteto) skill pack for rigorous AI-assisted engineering: run setup, then /poteto-mode routes playbooks and the other skills.

About this list
How is this trending list chosen?
By the AgentSkillsDir editors, from entries we source-checked this week and gave a full install page. We do not have a live star-growth feed, so we show no star counts and do not call this a ranking.
What is the difference between Trending and New?
New lists every addition by intake batch, in intake order. Trending is a short editorial pick of what is worth installing this week, including entries that got a rewritten install page.
Are trending MCP servers and skills safe to install?
Listed does not mean audited. Each card links to a page with the pinned source, license and permissions; read the source before you run anything.
