⚡ Key Takeaways

  • spm ends AI prompt copy-paste with npm-style installs, versioning, and cross-client support via MCP.
  • Registry starts small at 52 skills but packs dev, security, and DeFi gems with deps and triggers.
  • Big potential like early npm, but needs growth, audits, and adoption to avoid niche doom.
