skillworks | SkillWorks | https://skillworks.thecompound.tech | true | Every Claude Code skill, subagent, plugin and marketplace repository. | Each listing's files are read from source and scored 0–100 on four weighted components. A listing that does not parse into something Claude Code could load is counted as broken, not quietly dropped from the denominator. | https://skillworks.thecompound.tech/api/stats | listings read from source | 720,952 | that do not load: 63,762 | share failing: 8.8% | repositories: 29,174 | 2026-09-03T07:46:15.519+00:00 | false | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.555Z |
stillshipping | StillShipping | https://stillshipping.thecompound.tech | true | Whether an agent tool is still being worked on. | Commit, release and issue activity pulled from the GitHub API nightly and turned into one of three verdicts. The verdict is recomputed every night rather than recorded once, so a project that goes quiet changes its own row without anybody editing it. | https://stillshipping.thecompound.tech/api/stats | tools tracked | 340 | maintained: 295 | slowing: 21 | dead: 24 | 2026-09-04T06:20:52.557+00:00 | null | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.568Z |
tooldrift | ToolDrift | https://tooldrift.thecompound.tech | true | What the AI coding tools changed overnight — pricing, models, rankings. | Vendor changelogs, pricing pages and store rankings are fetched on a schedule and diffed against the previous capture. A price is recorded from the page that states it, and a page that has moved is followed and the redirect published rather than silently followed. | https://tooldrift.thecompound.tech/api/stats | tools watched nightly | 36 | models tracked: 428 | pricing pages checked: 33 | ranking rows: 1,459 | 2026-09-04T09:51:14.279+00:00 | false | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.571Z |
kitgrade | KitGrade | https://kitgrade.thecompound.tech | true | SaaS starter kits, graded on what is actually in the box. | Kits are graded from measured facts rather than from their own landing pages, and the hands-on count is published separately from the documented count — a kit somebody installed and ran is a different claim from a kit somebody read about. | https://kitgrade.thecompound.tech/api/stats | starter kits graded | 36 | installed and run: 16 | open source: 22 | archived since listing: 2 | 2026-09-04T05:41:48.01+00:00 | null | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.574Z |
storeready | StoreReady | https://storeready.thecompound.tech | true | Which AI app builders produce something the App Store will actually accept. | Every verdict is attached to numbered evidence — a policy clause, a rejection thread, a shipped binary.

blockdex | BlockDex | https://blockdex.thecompound.tech | true | Every component, block and theme inside every public shadcn registry. | Each registry is crawled and its items are read individually, so an item that disappears between crawls is counted as removed rather than forgotten.

rulestack | RuleStack | https://rulestack.thecompound.tech | true | How teams actually write agent config — AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md and the rest. | Config files are read out of public repositories and measured: length, whether they carry runnable commands, whether they carry code. The format shares are computed from the files found, not from a survey of what people say they use. | https://rulestack.thecompound.tech/api/stats | agent config files read | 7,109 | formats compared: 8 | repositories: 1,729 | most common format: cursor-rules | 2026-09-01 | null | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.579Z |
citerank | CiteRank | https://citerank.thecompound.tech | true | Whether answer engines cite a site when a buyer asks about its category. | A question is put to a live answer engine through a real browser and the answer it returns is recorded — one row per question per engine per run. Nothing is inferred from search rank; a citation counts when the engine actually produced it. | https://citerank.thecompound.tech/api/stats | answers recorded | 186 | engines answering: 5 | free checks run: 21 | null | 2026-09-03 | false | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.580Z |

It is the only one of the nine whose numbers a stranger can fully re-derive. | https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kyisaiah47/doc-extract-bench/main/results/latest.json | documents scored | 1,210 | vendors compared: 3 | pinned datasets: 5 | extraction failures: 18 | 2026-07-10T13:37:49.489Z | null | null | 2026-09-04T14:42:56.582Z |
Toolproof: the nine indexes and what each one currently measures
One row per index under the Toolproof masthead: what it measures, the method behind it, the public endpoint its figures come from, and the headline figure that endpoint returned at the moment of the cut.

How it is measured
Read from https://toolproof.thecompound.tech/api/index.json, which builds itself by calling each index's own public stats endpoint at request time. An index that did not answer is kept in the file with ok=false and the reason it gave, because a consumer has to be able to tell a missing index from an index that measured nothing.
What a citer needs to know
- The headline figures move between cuts. A citation of one of them should carry the cut date, which is in the filename and in
as_of. as_ofis the run that produced the figure.fetched_atis when this export read it. Those are different dates and both matter.
