Live repository

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 delexw/claude-code-misc at c729be0758.

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

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The adr-author skill automatically generates Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) based on provided context. It structures these records with sections like Context, Decision, Consequences, and Status. This helps teams document architectural choices in a consistent and maintainable format, improving communication and knowledge sharing.

When to use it

  • Documenting technology selections: Use when choosing between different frameworks or libraries for a project.
  • Recording design trade-offs: Capture the reasoning behind specific implementation decisions.
  • Formalizing architectural discussions: Transform informal conversations into structured ADRs.
  • Onboarding new team members: Provide clear documentation of past architectural choices and their rationale.

Key capabilities

  • Generates ADR documents with standard sections (Context, Decision, Consequences, Status).
  • Creates records based on provided context or prompts.
  • Supports consistent formatting for architectural decisions.

Example prompts

  • "Generate an ADR for choosing React over Angular for the frontend."
  • "Write an ADR documenting our decision to use a microservices architecture."
  • "Create an ADR explaining why we selected PostgreSQL as our database."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the generated ADR depends heavily on the clarity and detail provided in the prompt. Providing sufficient context will lead to more useful and accurate records.
