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 aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts at 3f5182cfd7.

    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 enables AI agents to automatically handle paginated API responses, ensuring complete data retrieval regardless of how many pages exist. It manages the iterative process of fetching subsequent pages until all available records are collected.

When to use it

  • Retrieving large datasets from APIs that return results in chunks (e.g., user lists, transaction logs).
  • Aggregating data across multiple endpoints where pagination metadata is required for navigation.
  • Building reports or analytics dashboards that require a full view of historical records.
  • Automating data migration tasks where missing records due to pagination limits would cause errors.

Key capabilities

  • Automatically detects pagination tokens or cursor values in API responses.
  • Iteratively requests subsequent pages based on returned metadata.
  • Consolidates fragmented data into a single, complete dataset for downstream processing.
  • Handles both offset-based and cursor-based pagination strategies.

Example prompts

  • "Fetch all active users from the customer database, handling any pagination limits automatically."
  • "Retrieve the last 1000 transaction records and compile them into one list."
  • "Scrape product inventory data across multiple pages and summarize total stock levels."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your API connection includes necessary authentication headers before enabling this skill, as many paginated endpoints require access tokens. Monitor rate limits closely when fetching large datasets to avoid triggering service throttling or temporary bans.
