Smart Auto-Categorization Guide

Overview

The skill collection now uses intelligent auto-categorization to eliminate "uncategorized" and organize skills into meaningful categories based on their content.

Current Status

✅ Current repository indexed through the generated catalog

• Most skills are in meaningful categories
• A smaller tail still needs manual review or better keyword coverage
• 11 primary categories
• Categories sorted by skill count (most first)

Category Distribution

Category	Count	Examples
Backend	164	Node.js, Django, Express, FastAPI
Web Development	107	React, Vue, Tailwind, CSS
Automation	103	Workflow, Scripting, RPA
DevOps	83	Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Git
AI/ML	79	TensorFlow, PyTorch, NLP, LLM
Content	47	Documentation, SEO, Writing
Database	44	SQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL
Testing	38	Jest, Cypress, Unit Testing
Security	36	Encryption, Authentication
Cloud	33	AWS, Azure, GCP
Mobile	21	React Native, Flutter, iOS
Game Dev	15	Unity, WebGL, 3D
Data Science	14	Pandas, NumPy, Analytics

How It Works

1. Keyword-Based Analysis

The system analyzes skill names and descriptions for keywords:

• Backend: nodejs, express, fastapi, django, server, api, database
• Web Dev: react, vue, angular, frontend, css, html, tailwind
• AI/ML: ai, machine learning, tensorflow, nlp, gpt
• DevOps: docker, kubernetes, ci/cd, deploy
• And more...

2. Priority System

Frontmatter category > Detected Keywords > Fallback (uncategorized)

If a skill already has a category in frontmatter, that's preserved.

3. Scope-Based Matching

• Exact phrase matches weighted 2x higher than partial matches
• Uses word boundaries to avoid false positives

Using the Auto-Categorization

Run on Uncategorized Skills

Output

======================================================================
AUTO-CATEGORIZATION REPORT
======================================================================

Summary:
   ✅ Categorized: 776
   ⏭️  Already categorized: 46
   ❌ Failed to categorize: 124
   📈 Total processed: full repository

Sample changes:
   • 3d-web-experience
     uncategorized → web-development
   • ab-test-setup
     uncategorized → testing
   • agent-framework-azure-ai-py
     uncategorized → backend

Web App Improvements

Category Filter

Before:

• Unordered list including "uncategorized"
• No indication of category size

After:

• Categories sorted by skill count (most first, "uncategorized" last)
• Shows count: "Backend (164)" "Web Development (107)"
• Much easier to browse

Example Dropdowns

Sorted Order:

1. All Categories
2. Backend (164)
3. Web Development (107)
4. Automation (103)
5. DevOps (83)
6. AI/ML (79)
7. ... more categories ...
8. Uncategorized (126) ← at the end

For Skill Creators

When Adding a New Skill

Include category in frontmatter:

---
name: my-skill
description: "..."
category: web-development
date_added: "2026-03-06"
---

If You're Not Sure

The system will automatically categorize on next index regeneration:

python tools/scripts/generate_index.py

Data Science: data, analytics, pandas, numpy, statistics, visualization

Customization

Add Custom Keywords

Edit tools/scripts/auto_categorize_skills.py:

CATEGORY_KEYWORDS = {
    'your-category': [
        'keyword1', 'keyword2', 'exact phrase', 'another-keyword'
    ],
    # ... other categories
}

Then re-run:

python tools/scripts/auto_categorize_skills.py
python tools/scripts/generate_index.py

Troubleshooting

"Failed to categorize" Skills

Some skills may be too generic or unique. You can:

1. Manually set category in the skill's frontmatter:

category: your-chosen-category

2. Add keywords to CATEGORY_KEYWORDS config

3. Move to folder if it fits a broader category:

skills/backend/my-new-skill/SKILL.md

Regenerating Index

After making changes to SKILL.md files:

python tools/scripts/generate_index.py

This will:

• Parse frontmatter categories
• Fallback to folder structure
• Generate new skills_index.json
• Copy to apps/web-app/public/skills.json

Next Steps

1. Test in web app: Try the improved category filter
2. Add missing keywords: If certain skills are still uncategorized
3. Organize remaining uncategorized skills: Either auto-assign or manually review
4. Monitor growth: Use reports to track new vs categorized skills

Result: Much cleaner category filter with smart, meaningful organization! 🎉
