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 ai-engineer-agent/ai-engineer-skills at ae0b890c03.

    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

This skill allows AI agents to understand, generate, and debug Kotlin code. It can assist with tasks ranging from creating simple functions to building complex backend systems using the Kotlin programming language. The agent is capable of translating natural language instructions into functional Kotlin code and identifying errors within existing codebases.

When to use it

  • Backend Development: Generate boilerplate code for a new microservice written in Kotlin.
  • Code Debugging: Identify and fix bugs in an existing Kotlin project by providing the agent with error messages or problematic code snippets.
  • Kotlin Learning: Get explanations of Kotlin syntax, best practices, and common libraries.
  • Code Translation: Convert Java code to equivalent Kotlin implementations.

Key capabilities

  • Kotlin Code Generation
  • Kotlin Debugging Assistance
  • Syntax Explanation
  • Java to Kotlin Conversion

Example prompts

  • "Write a Kotlin function that calculates the factorial of a given number."
  • "I'm getting a NullPointerException in my Kotlin code. Can you help me find the cause?"
  • "Explain how coroutines work in Kotlin with an example."

Tips & gotchas

The agent’s effectiveness is dependent on providing clear and specific instructions regarding desired functionality or error context. A basic understanding of programming concepts will improve prompt clarity and results.
