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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.

    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 sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills at 5a4cdd9df8.

    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 provides developers with best practices, coding standards, and architectural guidelines for building robust backend systems. It includes advice on API design, database optimization, security protocols, and scalable infrastructure setups.

When to use it

  • You're designing a new backend service and need guidance on structuring your codebase.
  • Your team is struggling with performance bottlenecks in the existing system.
  • You want to ensure that your APIs are secure, well-documented, and follow RESTful or GraphQL conventions.
  • You’re looking for ways to improve the maintainability and scalability of your backend application.

Key capabilities

  • API design patterns and REST/GraphQL best practices
  • Database optimization strategies (e.g., indexing, query tuning)
  • Security recommendations (authentication, authorization, input validation)
  • Infrastructure setup tips for cloud environments
  • Code organization and modular architecture guidance

Example prompts

  • "How should I structure my backend service to ensure scalability?"
  • "What are the best practices for securing a REST API?"
  • "Can you provide guidelines on optimizing database queries in Node.js?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your team is aligned with the chosen architectural patterns before implementation.
  • This skill assumes some familiarity with backend development concepts; it’s not a beginner-level tutorial.
