ev-collection

Phase 1 of the Gaia evidence verification pipeline. Use this skill whenever you need to gather, consolidate, or refresh raw evidence for named skills in the Gaia registry. Trigger phrases: "collect evidence", "populate the data lake", "gather sources", "run ev-collection", "Phase 1", "compile the evidence index", "refresh the unified lake", "aggregate skill evidence", "build the evidence database". Also invoke as the first step before running ev-star-verification, ev-adversarial-audit, or ev-link-validation — nothing downstream is meaningful without a fresh, compiled index. Covers GitHub repo links, stargazer signals, YouTube showcases, arXiv papers, peer reviews, benchmark results, blog/newsletter posts, and self-attestation artifacts.
