Question 1

How does SkillzBench help with student data breach protection when teachers install AI agent skills?

Accepted Answer

SkillzBench security-scans every skill version before it earns a Trust score, pinning each version to a commit SHA so the scanned skill is exactly what runs. With research showing roughly of skills carry at least one vulnerability, this scanning layer catches risky instruction packages before they touch classroom workflows.

Question 2

Is SkillzBench live yet, or is it still being built?

Accepted Answer

SkillzBench is pre-launch and actively being built by AIQ Labs. The waitlist and newsletter are live now, and the product — Discover, Verify, Benchmark, Equip, and Stay Current — is rolling out progressively. Joining the waitlist gets you early access as each pillar comes online.

Question 3

What exactly does the 0-100 Trust score measure?

Accepted Answer

The Trust score aggregates security, quality, license, maintenance, and community signals into a single 0-100 number. It's calculated by an independent lab, and money never touches scores — Lift is always shown separately from ratings so a paid placement can never masquerade as a quality signal.

Question 4

How do per-agent loadouts work for a school or district IT team?

Accepted Answer

SkillzBench provides one MCP server plus per-agent loadouts. You toggle skills and tools per agent, and the agent only sees what was chosen — a least-privilege model. Teams-tier plans (projected at ~$15-25/seat/mo) are designed to add org loadouts, allowlists, and audit capabilities for district-level control.

Question 5

How is this different from just reading a skill's GitHub repo or community reviews before installing it?

Accepted Answer

GitHub stars and READMEs are unverified claims. SkillzBench independently pins every version to a commit SHA, security-scans it, license-checks it, and benchmarks it in a sandbox with the same model — with and without the skill — publishing Lift in percentage points. It also tracks upstream changes and re-scans automatically, so you're notified when a skill you rely on shifts under you.
