## What it does

Skill History gives an agent access to skill search and daily download snapshots from ClawHub. The service also provides chart pages and embeddable SVGs for skills; the MCP server itself connects over HTTP at `https://skill-history.com/mcp`.

Its data comes from ClawHub’s public API, which the service polls every two hours. The history covers ClawHub downloads only, so it does not represent installs from other sources. Keep that scope in mind when comparing skills.
