Could you build this?

Partial Visualizing a skill graph in a web UI is standard, but extracting, disambiguating, and ontology-mapping public agent skills into a scalable graph database requires complex data pipelines.

What it would actually take: The project requires automated web scrapers parsing disparate repositories, API specifications, and tool registries, fed into an NLP/LLM pipeline for entity resolution and taxonomy classification. The data must be ingested into a graph database (like Memgraph or Neo4j) using Cypher queries optimized for transitive skill dependencies and semantic search. Expertise in knowledge graph engineering, ontologies, and distributed ETL pipelines is essential.
