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
This skill provides automated reviews of backend designs, identifying potential issues and suggesting improvements. It can analyze architectural diagrams, code snippets, or design documents to ensure scalability, security, and maintainability. The review focuses on common pitfalls in backend systems and offers actionable feedback for developers.
When to use it
- Before starting development: Get early feedback on your architecture to avoid costly rework later.
- During design reviews with a team: Supplement human reviewers with automated checks for consistency and best practices.
- When refactoring existing codebases: Identify areas that need improvement based on modern architectural principles.
- For onboarding new engineers: Ensure adherence to established backend standards and patterns.
Key capabilities
- Architectural diagram analysis
- Code snippet review (specific languages not listed)
- Design document assessment
- Scalability checks
- Security vulnerability identification
- Maintainability suggestions
Example prompts
- "Review this architectural diagram for a microservices-based e-commerce platform."
- "Analyze this Python code for potential performance bottlenecks and security risks."
- "Assess this design document for a REST API, focusing on error handling and data validation."
Tips & gotchas
The skill's effectiveness depends heavily on the clarity and completeness of the input provided. Ensure diagrams are well-defined and code snippets are representative of the overall system.
