Our assessment of dbx
dbx scores 90/100 on our quality scale, 295th of 756 Operations skills we index (top 40%).
Its MCP Server is 39 KB long, well organised into 30 sections with 19 code examples: long enough that it reads more like full documentation than a focused instruction file, which agents can find harder to follow.
With 29,216 GitHub stars, it is one of the more widely adopted skills in the catalogue.
Maintenance, license and trust
- The repository was last updated today, so dbx is actively maintained.
- Our last check on 2026-10-20 found the source still online.
- It is released under the Apache-2.0 license, a permissive license that allows use, modification and commercial use with attribution.
- Its trust signals score 100/100, with no cautions. These come from repository metadata, not a code audit — read the skill file before letting an agent act on it.
