obra/superpowers at 267,740 (+858), mattpocock/skills at 205,977 (+1,695), addyosmani/agent-skills at 82,324 (+588). The two newer ones differ in strategy: Pocock ships 18+ skills deliberately split into user-invoked and model-invoked halves, installed per-repo via a one-time /setup; Osmani ships 24 and bets on portability, claiming 70+ agents via npx skills add plus native Antigravity, Gemini and Codex plugins. Markdown instruction bundles are accumulating stars at the rate frameworks used to. Read the Skill-Use benchmark result above before you install 24 of anything.
