Install target

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 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

    Scanned benshapyro/cadre-devkit-claude at 19bca65791.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

Scanned
1 file, 212 lines
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 formats code according to established style guides. It can take raw, unformatted code and produce clean, readable output. The tool supports various programming languages and aims to improve code consistency across projects.

When to use it

  • You have a block of messy or inconsistent code that needs cleaning up.
  • You want to ensure your code adheres to a specific style guide (e.g., PEP 8 for Python).
  • You're collaborating with others and need to standardize the formatting of shared code.
  • You’re generating code programmatically and require consistent styling.

Key capabilities

  • Code Formatting
  • Style Guide Adherence
  • Multi-Language Support (implied)

Example prompts

  • "Format this Python code: [paste code here]"
  • "Can you pretty print this JavaScript?"
  • "Apply the PEP 8 style guide to this code."

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on the accuracy of its language detection and adherence to specific style guides. Providing context about the programming language will improve results.
