Free skills include monthly runs. - Community skills (distribution mode open_source) are maintained in public repositories by their authors. SkillGild lists, credits and installs them with `skillgild install `; they never run on SkillGild and cannot be started as sessions. ## Not for indexing - /admin, /account, /auth, /connect and /api are private application routes. - Filtered, sorted and searched catalog URLs are duplicates of /skills and are not canonical.
