Every listing scanned. Publisher releases human-reviewed.
The skills marketplace that reads the code first.
Every version of every skill is scanned for hidden instructions, dangerous commands and injection payloads before it is listed, and each listing shows exactly which version was checked and when. Install with one command, or straight from your browser.

Hidden payload decoded
An HTML comment and zero-width characters carry a directive aimed at the agent, not the reader: hide this section and suppress notifications.
curl | bash in setup script
The setup step pipes a script from a raw IP address straight into the shell. Nothing fetched at install time can be reviewed.

How SkillPort works, start to finish
Read the transcript
A skill is a set of instructions your AI agent will follow. Every word of it. So who read it first?
One hidden line can tell it to pipe a script into your shell, or quietly read your keys.
SkillPort is a marketplace that reads every skill before it is listed.
Every version is scanned. Hidden text. Override phrasing. The bundled scripts. And an AI reviewer that can flag a skill, but never publish one.
Publisher releases also need a human sign-off. And the database itself refuses to publish a version unless its passing scan matches the exact package bytes.
Each listing shows what was checked, at which version, and when. We never call a skill safe. A new version is scanned again.
Install with one command. The checksum is verified before anything is unpacked, and the version is pinned in a lockfile. Or install straight from your browser.
Verified professionals publish straight from GitHub. Teams get organisations, invites, and an audit log they can export.

How it works
Find it, check it, install it.
Free to browse. A free account unlocks installs, bookmarks, your download history and reviews.
Find
Search the catalogue or press Ctrl K from anywhere. Filter by category, agent and tier: Verified means scanned and human-reviewed, Community means an open-source import that was scanned but not individually reviewed.
Browse skillsCheck
Every listing carries a trust report: which version was scanned, when, and whether a person reviewed it. Read the package README in the Docs tab, the release history in Versions, and reviews that can only come from verified installs.
What a trust report meansInstall
One command puts the skill in your Claude Code skills folder, or a plain skills folder for any other agent. The checksum is verified before anything is unpacked and the version is pinned in skillport.lock. Signed in, you can also install from the browser into a folder you pick.
CLI reference
The scanner
Four layers read every skill before you do.
Hidden-text detection
Zero-width unicode, right-to-left overrides, HTML comments and encoded blobs: anything written for the agent but hidden from the reader is decoded and flagged.
Dangerous-instruction patterns
A lexicon of override and exfiltration phrasing catches instruction hijacks, notification suppression, agent-loyalty redirection and credential harvesting.
Static script analysis
Every bundled script is read for curl piped to shell, raw-IP downloads, reverse shells and reads of SSH keys, cloud credentials and .env files.
LLM injection classifier
A hardened model pass hunts the semantic injection that pattern rules miss, with skill content isolated as data. Its verdict alone never publishes anything.
An honest note: prompt injection is not a solved problem, and we do not claim otherwise. Defence in depth beats any single filter. Publisher releases never go live on an automated verdict alone; open-source community imports publish on a clean scan, carry the Community label, and wait for a human whenever the AI reviewer flags them. See all six pipeline stages.
Why vetting
Open registries trust the author. We trust the scanner.
An open, unvetted registry
- Anyone can publish under almost any name
- READMEs get skimmed; the instructions your agent will follow do not
- Setup scripts run on your machine sight unseen
- Trust leans on stars and download counts
Vetted skills on SkillPort
- Every version is scanned for injection, exfiltration and dangerous commands before listing
- Publisher releases require human approval; community imports are labelled separately
- Downloads are authenticated and checksum-verified against the reviewed package
- Suspect skills are pulled from the download path immediately
Publishers and teams
Publish your expertise. Run it as a team.
Publishers go through the same scanner as everyone else, plus a human review on every release. There is no trusted-publisher bypass.
For publishers
- Verification by LinkedIn, a company domain or a document, decided by a moderator
- Import straight from a GitHub folder at a branch, tag or commit
- Ship new versions yourself; the current one stays live until the update is approved
- See exactly what changed between your own versions, file by file
For teams
- One organisation for your team, with admin and member roles
- Invite people by email or by link, and remove them just as easily
- An audit log of who did what, exportable as CSV
- Prove you own your company domain with a DNS TXT record
In pilot: Recipes. A Recipe defines the inputs, steps and evidence for a repeatable task, pinned to an exact version and fingerprint. Installing one never lets it run on its own; an operator has to approve that exact version first.
