Agent adoption scorecard
Trust, audit, and install readiness at a glance
These scores combine public repository metadata, OpenAgentSkill review signals, maintenance freshness, and install readiness. They are a shortlist signal, not a replacement for human review.
Quality
PromisingUseful candidate, but compare it with alternatives before adopting.
Trust
Sandbox onlyUseful candidate with missing or mixed trust signals. Keep it in an isolated workspace until the outcome loop proves task fit.
Audit
Needs reviewInstall readiness, security metadata, maintenance, and adoption risk.
Trust Score v5
Human review before install
Run only in a sandbox and compare close alternatives before using it for real work.

Agent safety v2
46/100 · Avoid automatic install
Sparse or mixed signals. Useful for discovery, but not for autonomous installation.
Test manually in an isolated workspace and compare against safer alternatives.
high
Shell or command execution
Skill metadata references terminal, CLI, shell, subprocess, or command execution workflows.
medium
Network access
Skill likely fetches remote pages, APIs, repositories, or external services.

Filesystem access
Skill may read or write project files, documents, generated artifacts, or local workspace state.

Install targets
Install this skill in your agent workflow
Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
OpenAgentSkill CLI
Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.
$ npx skills add containrrr/shepherdAgent resolve plan
Let an agent verify fit before installing.
The Resolve API returns the selected skill, alternatives, safety policy, audit notes, install target, and copy-paste prompt an agent can follow without scraping this page.

Agent should check
- Task fit and alternatives from Resolve API.
- Audit score, trust score, and safety policy warnings.
- Install target compatibility for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or CLI.

Scenario-led draft for Shepherd, ready for a manual X post.
Most coding agents don't fail from lack of model power. They fail when repo context disappears. Shepherd gives coding agents a repeatable way to plan, patch, review, or ship. 588 stars https://www.openagentskill.com/skills/containrrr-shepherd?ref=x #AIAgents
