Install target

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 armanzeroeight/fastagent-plugins at 61b61a99e6.

    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 an AI agent to package Python code into distributable formats. It handles creating setup files, building wheels and source distributions, and uploading packages to a specified repository like PyPI or a private index. This enables the agent to create reusable software components and share them with others.

When to use it

  • Automating the creation of Python packages for internal tools or libraries.
  • Preparing open-source projects for distribution on platforms like PyPI.
  • Building custom installers for applications that require specific dependencies.
  • Generating reproducible builds of software by packaging all necessary components.

Key capabilities

  • Creates setup.py and pyproject.toml files.
  • Builds Python wheels (.whl) and source distributions (.tar.gz).
  • Supports uploading packages to PyPI or custom package indexes.

Example prompts

  • "Package this directory of Python code into a wheel file."
  • "Create a setup.py for my project with the name 'my_package' and version '1.0.0'."
  • "Build and upload a source distribution to PyPI."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a working Python environment with necessary build tools (e.g., setuptools, wheel).
  • Ensure you have appropriate credentials configured for uploading packages to private repositories.
