Frequently Asked Questions

What is Agent Skills Search Server?

Search and discover Agent Skills from the skills.sh registry. Powered by HAPI MCP server.

What tools does Agent Skills Search Server provide?

Agent Skills Search Server provides 3 tools including validate (CLI), read-properties (CLI), to-prompt (CLI). Each tool can be called by AI agents to perform specific operations.

Is Agent Skills Search Server safe to use?

We cannot tell you that, and nobody scanning at this scale can. What we did in March 2026 was shallow-clone Agent Skills Search Server and run five keyword searches over its source: auth identifiers, CORS configuration, rate-limit identifiers, the dependency manifest against a hardcoded list of 18 known-vulnerable packages, and unguarded eval/exec calls. None of them matched. A text search cannot follow a variable, judge intent, or tell you what a server does once it is running, so "nothing matched" is not "safe". What the scan does and does not cover is written out at /mcp/security.

What are alternatives to Agent Skills Search Server?
