What does the product-hunt-scraper skill do?
Scrape Product Hunt trending products using Apify. Use when you need to discover new product launches, track competitors on Product Hunt, or monitor the startup ecosystem for relevant launches.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add gooseworks-ai/goose-skills --skill product-hunt-scraper --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From gooseworks-ai/goose-skills, a repository with 1,091 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
