v1.5.0 — README polish + accumulated 1.4.x fixes

This release rolls together the README rewrite (1.5.0) plus the credibility/attribution fixes from 1.4.1 + 1.4.2 that were merged earlier today.

What changed since v1.4.0

1.5.0 — README polish (this release)

  • Centered hero w/ for-the-badge style, deep-link nav
  • "30-second pitch" diagram, two-column category cards
  • Quick start grouped by agent (Hermes / Claude Code / Cursor / custom)
  • Conflicts table promoted to top-level
  • New FAQ section (upstream authorship, why aggregator, what the quality score means, commercial use)
  • Stats card with 5 useful metrics
  • No claims changed; no skill content changed; no tooling changed

1.4.2 — Eliminate residual hyperbole

  • Removed "4 industry experts contributing knowledge" + "424K+ combined stars" block from docs/categories.md
  • Updated skills/research/trending-repos-discovery/SKILL.md so it stops teaching downstream agents to aggregate stars or label upstream authors as contributors
  • CONTRIBUTING.md now distinguishes original vs aggregated rules; aggregated PRs require source_repo + source_url + source_license frontmatter
  • .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md adds an attribution checklist incl. "I am not misrepresenting an upstream author as a contributor"

1.4.1 — License + attribution honesty

  • LICENSE classifier fixed: GitHub was detecting Other/NOASSERTION instead of MIT because the file mixed MIT text with an Attribution appendix. Replaced with clean SPDX MIT.
  • New NOTICE file with full third-party source/license table + non-affiliation disclaimer
  • README rewritten: dropped "curated by industry experts" framing, "424K+ combined stars" borrowed credibility, "production-tested in real projects", self-scored "Quality 86/100" badge, "Features Comparison" table vs unnamed others
  • Per-skill source_repo + source_url + source_license frontmatter on all 64 skills under addyosmani/, mattpocock/, superpowers/
  • BUG_REPORT.md + CRITICAL_BUGS_V2.md moved out of repo root → .github/internal/
