Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
The arktype skill allows AI agents to generate and manage archetypes, which are reusable templates or blueprints. These archetypes can be used as a foundation for creating new content or entities with consistent characteristics. The skill facilitates the creation of structured data representations and simplifies repetitive generation tasks by providing pre-defined patterns.
When to use it
- Content Creation: Generate multiple similar characters, products, or locations for a story or game world using a shared archetype as a base.
- Data Structuring: Define templates for organizing information like customer profiles, scientific data entries, or product specifications.
- Rapid Prototyping: Quickly create initial versions of entities with consistent attributes before refining them further.
- Consistent Output: Ensure that generated content adheres to specific guidelines and maintains a uniform style across multiple instances.
Key capabilities
- Archetype creation
- Archetype management (listing, deleting)
- Content generation from archetypes
- Structured data representation
Example prompts
- "Create an archetype for a fantasy warrior with attributes like strength, agility, and weapon proficiency."
- "Generate three new characters based on the 'Noble Knight' archetype."
- "List all existing archetypes I have defined."
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires clear and specific instructions when defining archetypes to ensure consistent results. Ambiguous or incomplete definitions can lead to unexpected variations in generated content.
