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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: mcp.datadoghq.com.

    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.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • 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 datadog-labs/agent-skills at 9f3a8b065b.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows users to discover and install skills for AI agents. It provides a centralized registry where developers can publish their AI agent skills, and users can easily find and integrate them into their workflows. The core functionality revolves around the discovery, installation, and management of these reusable AI agent components.

When to use it

  • You want to extend the capabilities of an existing AI agent without writing code from scratch.
  • You're looking for pre-built solutions to common AI tasks like data analysis or content generation.
  • You need a way to manage and organize different skills used by your AI agents.
  • You are developing custom AI agent skills and want to share them with others.

Key capabilities

  • Skill discovery: Browse available skills based on category, author, or keywords.
  • Skill installation: Easily install selected skills into an AI agent environment.
  • Skill management: Organize and track installed skills.
  • Developer publishing: Allows developers to publish their own skills to the registry.

Example prompts

  • "Show me all skills related to data analysis."
  • "Install the 'summarization' skill by Acme Corp."
  • “What skills are available from datadog-labs?”

Tips & gotchas

The effectiveness of this skill depends on the quality and availability of published skills. Ensure you have a compatible AI agent environment before attempting to install any skills.
