Questions, answered from the data.

What is the best retrieval-augmented generation skill?

Claude Cookbooks Reference from 2025Emma/vibe-coding-cn ranks first of the 360 retrieval-augmented generation skills listed here, with the highest score: its repository has 23k GitHub stars, 1 other GitHub owner carry a copy, its SKILL.md loads about 2.2k tokens and it passes the automated safety check with no findings. Next come Docling Document Conversion and Chroma Vector Database.

Which retrieval-augmented generation skills are official?

46 of the 360 retrieval-augmented generation skills are official, published by the vendor's own GitHub organization: Azure AI Search Python SDK, Retail Product Search Agent, Weaviate, Release, Qdrant Advisor and 41 more.

How are these skills ranked?

By Skill Navigator score, which combines the GitHub stars of the skill's repository (shared across that repo's skills and discounted for large collections), how many other GitHub owners carry a copy of the skill, and automated SKILL.md quality checks, minus penalties for safety-check warnings and for each further skill from the same repository. Skills that fail the safety check are not listed.
