What Prompts skills agree on
563 skill files read, by 542 of the 575 authors on this shelf whose files we hold, 2026-09-06
The middle one of the 78 measured here is ~1.4k tokens long, counted with cl100k_base
Counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once. Where a claim sits in fewer files than authors, that is said: a claim held by forty authors across three files is one file people copied, not forty people who agreed. Near-identical wordings are grouped and the other wordings are shown, so the grouping is yours to check.

How Prompts skills are built
1,465 skill directories by 617 authors, read from their repositories’ own file trees 2026-08-05
The middle bundle among those shipping files is 3 files, 18.1 KB beside SKILL.md
Counted by distinct author, same as above, so one author publishing forty template copies counts once. SKILL.md itself is not counted as a file, so a single-file skill is one where that file is the whole skill.
