How the author describes it
Sets up, manages, queries, and configures Cloud Firestore databases (Standard/Enterprise edition), including data modeling, security rules, indexes, and SDK integrations (Web, Python, iOS, Android, Flutter). Use when creating/listing Firestore databases, defining data models/indexes, writing SDK queries, or integrating Firestore SDKs. For authoring or modifying Firestore Security Rules (firestore.rules), delegate to the firestore-rules-author subagent if subagent delegation is available, or use firestore-rules-creation otherwise. Don't use for Firebase Hosting, Data Connect, Auth, Storage/GCS, Crashlytics, Functions, or BigQuery.

firebase-firestore passes the required frontmatter check and all seven graded checks, which cover the SKILL.md format, a declared license and a commit in the last year. Those checks earn 56 of the score’s points; the rest come from description quality, instruction depth, bundled files, maintenance and curated-list citations. How the score works.
