Platforms count differently and update at different times.
The skill covers droid interactive and non-interactive exec modes for building features, debugging, refactoring, managing MCP servers, and managing plugins. The CLI also offers options that automatically apply changes; review the plan and confirm authorization before applying edits or deploying. Avoid --force for routine work and install only trusted integrations.

The counting method changed in 2026-09: skills with the same name are now counted separately by author, and the full catalog is covered. Dashed lines show months before the change; they are not compared with later months, and no growth is computed across the change.
