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
The backend-patterns skill provides developers with a collection of common architectural and design patterns used in backend development. It includes guidance on implementing RESTful APIs, database schema design, authentication mechanisms, and scalable server architectures.
When to use it
- You're designing a new backend system and need proven patterns for structuring your codebase.
- You're looking to improve the scalability or maintainability of an existing application.
- You want to implement secure authentication and authorization practices in your API.
- You are refactoring legacy systems and need guidance on modernizing their architecture.
Key capabilities
- RESTful API design patterns
- Database schema normalization strategies
- Authentication and session management techniques
- Microservices architecture implementation
- Caching and performance optimization methods
Example prompts
- "Explain how to implement JWT-based authentication in a backend service."
- "Provide an example of a RESTful API endpoint structure for a user management system."
- "What are the best practices for designing a scalable microservices architecture?"
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure your development environment supports modern backend frameworks like Express.js or Django.
- Some patterns may require additional libraries or tools, so review documentation before implementation.
