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 ar4mirez/samuel at 571d3d1834.

    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 provides access to Express, a popular Node.js web application framework. It allows agents to quickly create robust and scalable web applications with features like routing, middleware support, and templating engines. The skill simplifies the process of building APIs and handling HTTP requests within an AI agent's workflow.

When to use it

  • Building REST APIs: When your agent needs to expose data or functionality through a well-defined API endpoint.
  • Creating webhooks: To enable your agent to receive and respond to events from external services.
  • Developing simple web applications: For tasks like building dashboards, internal tools, or basic websites.
  • Handling HTTP requests: When the agent needs to make outgoing requests to other web servers or services.

Key capabilities

  • Routing: Define routes for handling different HTTP requests.
  • Middleware support: Implement custom logic before or after request handlers.
  • Templating engines: Render dynamic HTML content.
  • HTTP Request Handling: Process GET, POST, PUT, DELETE and other HTTP methods.

Example prompts

  • "Create an Express server that listens on port 3000 and responds with 'Hello World' to the root path."
  • "Build a simple API endpoint at /users that returns a list of users from a database."
  • "Implement middleware to log all incoming requests to the console."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a Node.js environment for execution. Ensure your agent has access to and can run Node.js code.
