  - Why this made the cut: Signal 9.4, Confidence 8.7, and Impact 2.0 combined to rank this in the top set.
  - Deep:
    - Context: We collect 238,180 unique skills from three major distribution platforms and GitHub, and analyze their contents, behavior, and repository context.
    - What's new: arXiv:2603.16572v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Agent skills extend local AI agents, such as Claude Code and OpenClaw, with additional functionality.
    - Key quotes/snippets:
    - "arXiv:2603.16572v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Agent skills extend local AI agents, such as Claude Code and OpenClaw, with additional functionality."
    - "Their growing popularity has led to dedicated marketplaces resembling mobile app stores, as well as automated scanners that assess whether skills are benign or malicious."
    - Limitations / unknowns:
    - However, scanner reports from individual marketplaces classify up to 46.8% of skills as malicious, raising concerns about false positives.
    - Overall, our findings provide a more robust view of the agent-skill ecosystem's current risk surface and highlight the need for context-aware security evaluation.
    - Next-step validation checks:
    - Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
    - Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
