skill-history

Track and visualize agent skill download history from ClawHub. An embeddable chart for READMEs — star-history, but for agent skills.

skill-history.com · built by Pineapple AI

How it works

skill-history.com tracks daily download counts for all 54,000+ skills on ClawHub. Every skill gets a chart page and an embeddable SVG:

  • Chart page — skill-history.com/{handle}/{slug}
  • SVG embed — skill-history.com/chart/{handle}/{slug}.svg
  • Compact badge — skill-history.com/badge/{handle}/{slug}.svg

Your {handle} is your GitHub username (ClawHub uses GitHub OAuth), and {slug} is your skill's slug on ClawHub.

Add to your README
[![Download History](https://skill-history.com/chart/YOUR_HANDLE/YOUR_SLUG.svg)](https://skill-history.com/YOUR_HANDLE/YOUR_SLUG)

Or use the link generator at skill-history.com.

Architecture

  • Cloudflare Workers + Hono — serves the site, chart SVGs, and scheduled sweeps
  • Cloudflare D1 (SQLite) — stores skills and daily snapshots
  • Edge cache — GET responses are stored in Cloudflare's cache via the Cache API (caches.default), so D1 only sees cache misses; weekly blog data is materialised in D1 once per week
  • d3-shape — smooth monotone curves (same algorithm as star-history)
  • Data source — ClawHub public API, sweeps every 2 hours

API

All skill pages return JSON when requested with Accept: application/json:

curl -H "Accept: application/json" https://skill-history.com/gavinlinasd/self-preserve

Full OpenAPI spec at skill-history.com/api/openapi.json.

For AI agents: skill-history.com/llms.txt.

Local development

npm install

# Authenticate with Cloudflare
wrangler login

# Create D1 database, copy database_id into wrangler.jsonc
wrangler d1 create skill-history

# Apply schema to local dev DB
npm run db:migrate:local

# Run locally
npm run dev

Contributing

This is a brand new project and we're actively shaping it based on what skill authors actually want. Contributions welcome:

  • Feature requests — open an issue describing what you'd like to see
  • Bug reports — if a chart looks wrong or a skill is missing, let us know
  • Pull requests — code, docs, or design improvements are all welcome
  • Data sources — ideas for tracking skills beyond ClawHub (GitHub stars, other registries)
