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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
The backend-design-optimizer skill analyzes and refines backend system designs. It identifies potential bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and areas for improvement in architectural plans. The tool can suggest optimizations related to database schema, API design, and overall system scalability.
When to use it
- You're designing a new microservice architecture and want to proactively identify potential issues.
- Your existing backend is experiencing performance degradation and you need help pinpointing the root cause.
- You’re planning for increased user load and require assistance in ensuring your backend can handle the demand.
- You have an existing database schema that needs review for efficiency and scalability.
Key capabilities
- Architecture analysis
- Bottleneck identification
- Scalability assessment
- Database schema optimization suggestions
- API design refinement
Example prompts
- "Analyze this backend architecture diagram and identify potential bottlenecks."
- "Suggest improvements to my database schema for faster query performance."
- "Evaluate the scalability of this API design for handling 1 million users."
- “Review this microservice architecture and suggest ways to improve inter-service communication.”
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires a clear description or diagram of the backend system being analyzed. The more detail provided, the more accurate and helpful the suggestions will be.
