Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned pytorch/pytorch at edd4fc2d34.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This PyTorch skill enables the use of unsigned integer data types within tensor operations, expanding the library's native support beyond standard floating-point and signed integer formats. It allows developers to perform calculations and memory-efficient storage using uint8, uint16, and other unsigned integer types directly in their models.

When to use it

  • Optimizing model inference for edge devices where memory bandwidth is limited by utilizing compact unsigned integer representations.
  • Processing image data or categorical labels that naturally map to non-negative integer ranges without conversion overhead.
  • Implementing quantization techniques to reduce model size while maintaining acceptable accuracy levels.
  • Working with specific hardware accelerators that offer native performance benefits for unsigned integer arithmetic.

Key capabilities

  • Native support for unsigned integer tensor types (e.g., torch.uint8, torch.uint16).
  • Integration of unsigned integers into standard PyTorch computational graphs.
  • Compatibility with existing PyTorch operations and autograd mechanisms where applicable.

Example prompts

  • "Convert a float32 tensor to uint8 for efficient storage in my image classification pipeline."
  • "Run inference on this quantized model using uint16 tensors to save memory on the edge device."
  • "Create a custom layer that performs element-wise addition on unsigned integer tensors."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your hardware and backend support the specific unsigned integer types you intend to use, as not all accelerators handle them identically.
  • Be mindful of precision loss when converting from floating-point data to lower-bit unsigned integers; validate accuracy before deployment.
