## AI overview

Vercel has released the skills.sh API, enabling authenticated access to more than 600,000 open-source skills. The API supports skill search, detailed information retrieval, and security-audit checks.

## Source excerpt

The skills.sh API is now available. Authenticate with your project's Vercel OIDC token and start querying more than 600,000 skills from across the open-source ecosystem. Search for skills, pull detailed info on any one, check its security audit, and more. Vercel issues a short-lived token scoped to your team and project, rotated automatically, so there's no long-lived secret to leak or rotate. On each request, skills.sh verifies the token and applies a rate limit of 600 requests per minute per team and project. Read the skills.sh API documentation to get started. Read more
