Sample result format (illustrative values â run on your own data for real findings):
{
"findings": [
{

"title": "Suspicious Network Traffic",
"description": "Network traffic from unknown IP address",
"severity": "medium",
"created_at": "2023-02-15T14:30:00Z"

}
]
}
Usage â step by step
Install (Python 3.9+):
pip install skillhubList skills in a registry (defaults to the current directory):
skillhub list -r ./registrySearch and inspect. Rank skills by a query, then view a manifest with its dependencies:
skillhub search "pdf extraction" -r ./registry skillhub info pdf-extract -r ./registryInstall a skill into a target directory, overwriting if needed:
skillhub install pdf-extract -r ./registry -t ./agent/skills --force skillhub installed -t ./agent/skillsAutomate / clean up. Emit JSON for tooling, and uninstall a skill in scripts:
skillhub --format json installed -t ./agent/skills | jq '.[].name' skillhub remove pdf-extract -t ./agent/skills

Why skillhub?
ride the viral skills-registry pattern
skillhub is single-purpose, scriptable, and self-hostable: point it at a target, get prioritized results in the format your workflow already speaks (table · JSON · SARIF), gate CI on it, and let agents drive it over MCP.
Features
- â Parse Version
- â Parse Manifest
- â Resolve Dependencies
- â Runs on Linux/macOS/Windows · Docker · devcontainer
- â
Ports in Python, JavaScript, Go, and Rust (
ports/)
Quick start
pip install cognis-skillhub
skillhub --version
skillhub scan . # scan current project
skillhub scan . --format json # machine-readable
skillhub scan . --fail-on high # CI gate (non-zero exit)
Example
$ skillhub scan .
[HIGH ] SKI-001 example finding (./src/app.py)
[MEDIUM ] SKI-002 another signal (./config.yaml)

Use it from any AI stack
skillhub is interoperable with every popular way of using AI:
- MCP server â
skillhub mcp(Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cognis.Studio, uncensored-fleet) - OpenAI-compatible / JSON â pipe
skillhub scan . --format jsoninto any agent or LLM - LangChain · CrewAI · AutoGen · LlamaIndex â wrap the CLI/JSON as a tool in one line
- CI / scripts â exit codes + SARIF for non-AI pipelines
