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 automates the process of creating and distributing Python packages. It handles tasks like setting up project structure, generating metadata files (like setup.py), building distributions (.whl and .tar.gz files), and uploading them to a package index such as PyPI. This simplifies the deployment of reusable Python code for others to install and use.
When to use it
- You've developed a Python library or tool that you want to share with other developers.
- You need to create distributable packages from your existing Python projects.
- You are automating the build process for a Python project as part of a CI/CD pipeline.
- You want to easily upload your package to PyPI or another package index.
Key capabilities
- Automated
setup.pygeneration - Building
.whland.tar.gzdistributions - Uploading packages to a package index (e.g., PyPI)
Example prompts
- "Create a Python package for my project located in
/path/to/my/project." - "Build a distribution of the code in
my_python_moduleand upload it to PyPI." - “Generate a setup file with name 'MyProject' and version 1.0.”
Tips & gotchas
- Requires Python development tools (e.g.,
setuptools,wheel) to be installed on the system where the AI agent is running. - Authentication may be required for uploading packages to a package index like PyPI; ensure appropriate credentials are available.
