## Guardrails

- This is an independent curated resource, not an official GitHub project.
- Star counts and maintenance status are reviewed snapshots, not live rankings.
- Recheck upstream repositories before adopting extensions for security, compliance, CI, release, or production workflows.
- Open a correction if a summary, category, install command, or maintenance label is wrong: https://github.com/sjh9714/gh-extension-atlas/issues/new/choose
