awesome-agent-skills is a curated collection of over 1,100 agent skills contributed by official engineering teams — Anthropic, Google, Vercel, Stripe, Cloudflare, Netlify, HashiCorp, Trail of Bits, Sentry, Hugging Face, Figma, Expo, and others. Each skill is vetted and works across Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, and Cursor. VoltAgent is explicit that this is "hand-picked, not AI-slop generated." The project fills a gap that's emerged as agentic coding platforms have proliferated: each platform has its own skill/command format, and developers end up rebuilding the same auth flows, API integrations, and test harnesses for each one. awesome-agent-skills provides a universal, cross-platform skill layer maintained by the companies that built the APIs being automated. As of this week, the repo is trending on GitHub with 139 new stars today, bringing the total to 16.9k with 1.8k forks. VoltAgent also maintains companion repos: awesome-openclaw-skills (5,400+ skills for Claude Code specifically) and awesome-ai-agent-papers. For developers building on any agentic coding platform, this is quickly becoming the first stop before writing a custom integration from scratch.

Metrics SQL by Rill
One SQL semantic layer so AI agents stop hallucinating your KPIs

Metrics SQL is a SQL-based semantic layer from Rill Data that solves a specific and painful problem: AI agents that query your data warehouse tend to hallucinate aggregation logic, producing metrics that look plausible but are mathematically wrong. Metrics SQL lets analysts define business metrics once — revenue, MAU, conversion rate, ROAS — in a governed definition layer, and then exposes those definitions as queryable SQL tables. Every dashboard, notebook, and AI agent resolves from the same source. The technical approach is elegant: rather than inventing a new DSL, Metrics SQL extends SQL itself. An agent that knows SQL can query `SELECT * FROM metrics.weekly_revenue` and get correctly computed numbers without needing to know how revenue is defined, which tables it joins, or how edge cases like refunds are handled. The semantic layer intercepts the query, applies the governed definition, and returns correct results. The implications for AI-native data stacks are significant. Currently, one of the biggest failure modes for AI analysts and BI agents is inconsistent metric computation — different agents or dashboards produce different numbers for 'revenue' because they implement aggregation logic differently. Metrics SQL addresses this at the infrastructure level, not by improving agent prompting.
Reviewer scorecard
“Official skills from the companies that built the APIs are a different category from community-written scripts. When Stripe's own team ships a payments agent skill, I trust it handles edge cases my homegrown version would miss. This is the npm registry for agentic coding.”
“We've been burned by data agents that invent their own GROUP BY logic and produce wrong numbers that look right. Metrics SQL solves this at the infrastructure level — define revenue once, have every agent query the same definition. The SQL-native interface means no new tools for agents to learn; they just use the tables.”
“1,100+ skills sounds impressive until you realize most of them are thin wrappers that call the same APIs you'd call directly. 'Official' doesn't mean secure or well-maintained — a star count and corporate logos are not a substitute for auditing skills you're giving your AI agent.”
“The value here is only as good as how well-maintained your metric definitions are — if analysts don't keep them updated, agents query stale or wrong definitions and you've added a layer of false confidence. Adopting a semantic layer also creates vendor dependency; migrating away from Rill's cloud later is a real switching cost. For smaller teams without dedicated data engineering, maintaining a semantic layer is overhead.”
“The emergence of a skills marketplace with official vendor buy-in is a structural shift: the agentic coding ecosystem is maturing from 'DIY everything' to 'pull from a curated catalog.' This is the infrastructure layer that makes agentic development teams viable at scale.”
“Data governance and AI agents are on a collision course. As more business decisions are delegated to AI, the correctness of KPI computation becomes load-bearing — a hallucinated revenue figure that influences a product decision is a serious failure mode. Metrics SQL represents a class of infrastructure that will become mandatory as AI takes on more analytical work.”
“Figma's presence in the contributor list is what gets my attention. Cross-platform creative workflow automation via official agent skills — rather than fragile screen-scraping hacks — is a meaningful step toward AI-assisted design pipelines that actually hold up.”
“I rely on AI to pull weekly performance data, and the number of times it's given me different 'correct' answers for the same metric is maddening. Having a single governed source that every AI query resolves against means I can trust the numbers I'm making decisions on. That trust is worth a lot.”
