    Hi Cloudflare people, if you are reading this. Please clean up your Cloudflare. Skills. There are way too many skills for the platform. You should consolidate all of your skills into a single skill and route everything thru that skill. The way it is right now pollutes our context window.

        We actually do.

        I forwarded this to the right person, and it sounds like it&#x27;s being worked on. Thanks!

          Once again, proving my growing trust in Cloudflare is well placed. Thanks!

          I complain because I like using CF. Thank you.

      I really don&#x27;t understand why they didn&#x27;t create an &quot;app store&quot; style skills library where it could be approved and scanned for security issues

      14 skills with short descriptions doesn&#x27;t seem like an issue to me.
      1. prodigycorp · · focus · HN ↗
        The descriptions are shorter now, but they used to read like ads. The skill split still feels arbitrary. You turn on what you think you need, then hit some Cloudflare task that needs another skill and have to go fetch it.

        I don’t get why these need to be separate. One skill with progressive disclosure already handles this. That’s kind of the point.
