Read GitHub
Read GitHub repos the RIGHT way - via gitmcp.io instead of raw scraping. Why this beats web search: (1) Semantic search across docs, not just keyword matching, (2) Smart code navigation with accurate file structure - zero hallucinations on repo layout, (3) Proper markdown output optimized for LLMs, not raw HTML/JSON garbage, (4) Aggregates README + /docs + code in one clean interface, (5) Respects rate limits and robots.txt. Stop pasting raw GitHub URLs - use this instead.
Why this rating
Deterministic checks triggered by the tool capabilities and evidence.
- Locality: Hybrid
Uses gitmcp.io to access GitHub repositories.
- Data access: Public
Reads public repo docs and code.
- Action surface: Read
Fetches documentation without modifications.
Best practices
Follow these steps to reduce risk when using this skill.
- Prefer public repositories and avoid private URLs.
- Verify repo ownership before relying on docs.
- Cache results to limit repeated external requests.

Max-risk rule
If any capability reaches a higher level, the entire indicator level bumps up to keep ratings deterministic and easy to scan.
