| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
original | Authored by Solid State. We wrote it, we maintain it, we answer for it. |
listing | Indexed from upstream. The author is the author. We link, we don’t claim. |
Provenance
Where the skill actually comes from.first-party means us. Everything else names the upstream source — ClawHub, skills.sh, Hermes, a GitHub repo.
There is no “verified” badge. A boolean that says “trust me” is a facade. Provenance is a pointer you can follow.
License
Stated as an SPDX identifier. The accepted set:MIT · MIT-0 · Apache-2.0 · BSD-3-Clause · BSD-2-Clause · ISC · GPL-3.0 · AGPL-3.0 · MPL-2.0 · Unlicense · CC0-1.0 · source-available · proprietary
Two special cases:
undeclared— the upstream repo states no license. The listing shows it plainly. Use at your own judgment; legally, no license means all rights reserved.unknown— we refuse to render it. If we can’t determine the license, the skill doesn’t get listed.
Why this schema exists
Marketplaces inflate. Install counts get invented, “verified” badges get sold, authorship gets blurred. The rules here are baked into the data model:- No install count we haven’t measured.
- No authorship we don’t hold.
- No repo link that 404s.
- No license field that hides what it doesn’t know.
