source-evaluation

source-evaluation is a Web research & fact-checking skill for AI agents, published by oborchers in the fractional-cto repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates source-evaluation B (81/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

This skill should be used when evaluating source credibility, deciding which search results to trust, choosing between search providers, detecting SEO spam or content farms, selecting domain-specific sources (academic, medical, legal, technical), evaluating software packages or libraries, comparing tools or technologies, assessing GitHub repo health, checking adoption metrics, or when research quality depends on retrieval quality. Covers the source credibility taxonomy (T1-T6 tiers), CRAAP framework adaptation, multi-provider search strategy, artifact evaluation framework (health/adoption/authority signals for packages, repos, APIs, standards, technologies), and source quality anti-patterns.

Unproven: rated by static analysis only, not yet compared head-to-head.

Not launch-quality. It is graded B with a clean safety verdict, but our quality filters exclude it: it is a near-duplicate variant of another skill. So it is not in our launch-quality set, the skills our MCP server searches and recommends. How launch-quality is decided
