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
This skill enables AI agents to parse and process asciinema.cast files, which are text-based recordings of terminal sessions. It extracts command history, timestamps, and output streams to facilitate analysis or automation of shell workflows.
When to use it
- Automating the review of complex terminal debugging sessions stored as cast files.
- Extracting specific commands from a recorded session for replay or documentation.
- Analyzing historical system administration logs without manual transcription.
- Integrating terminal recording data into CI/CD pipelines for audit trails.
Key capabilities
- Parsing standard
asciinema.castfile structures. - Extracting command sequences and their corresponding outputs.
- Handling timestamped event streams from terminal recordings.
Example prompts
- "Extract all commands executed in this asciinema.cast file between 10:00 and 10:30."
- "Summarize the error messages displayed during the deployment sequence in this cast file."
- "Convert the command history from this recording into a bash script for replay."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure the input file is a valid, uncorrupted asciinema.cast format to avoid parsing errors. This skill relies on text-based metadata; binary modifications or non-standard encodings may break functionality.
