Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a marketing skill usually talks to online services.
This skill should be used when adding GitHub star counts, star buttons, star widgets, or GitHub social proof to a website or app. Applies when the user says "add GitHub stars", "show star count", "add a star badge", "GitHub badge", "star widget", "GitHub social proof", "stargazer count", or wants to display how many stars a repo has on a marketing page, header, or landing page. Also applies when integrating the GitHub API for repository metadata display.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'github-stars' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'github-stars' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named github-stars already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/b-open-io/prompts' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'f4b302aadb0c99023b03e1f1b38ffed3697fbedf' -- 'modules/web-dev/skills/github-stars' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'modules/web-dev/skills/github-stars' ~/.agents/skills/'github-stars' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'github-stars' ~/.claude/skills/'github-stars' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
