DevOps Claude Skills
4 344 DevOps skills from 392 authors. They ship releases, run infrastructure and keep watch over what is deployed. Half of them fit into 2 094 tokens or less — that is what one costs your context window when the agent loads it. 513 ship runnable scripts rather than instructions alone. 28 of them cannot work without an MCP server, most often rube. We also found 649 copies of these same skills sitting in other people's repositories — counted once here, not 649 times.
