Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides patterns and best practices for building robust and scalable real-time features using Action Cable in Rails applications. It helps generate code snippets, troubleshoot common issues, and optimize performance related to websockets within a Rails environment. The skill focuses on ensuring reliable communication between the server and clients.
When to use it
- You're developing a Rails application requiring real-time updates (e.g., chat, live dashboards).
- You need assistance debugging issues with your Action Cable implementation.
- You want to refactor existing Action Cable code for improved performance or maintainability.
- You are looking for guidance on implementing specific features like presence tracking or broadcasting events.
Key capabilities
- Action Cable code generation
- Debugging support for websockets in Rails
- Optimization of Action Cable performance
- Implementation of real-time features within a Rails application
Example prompts
- "Generate an Action Cable channel to broadcast messages to all connected clients."
- "How can I handle authentication in my Action Cable channels?"
- "What's the best way to optimize Action Cable broadcasting for high concurrency?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill is most effective when used within a Rails development environment. A basic understanding of Ruby on Rails and websockets is helpful to interpret and apply the generated code effectively.
