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 borghei/claude-skills at 4a698e8d07.

    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

Senior Prompt Engineer

What it does

This skill acts as an expert-level prompt engineer, optimizing your instructions to maximize AI model performance and output quality. It refines complex requests into precise, structured prompts that reduce ambiguity and improve task accuracy.

When to use it

  • You need to extract specific data formats or structured outputs from unstructured text.
  • Your current prompts are yielding inconsistent results or hallucinations in critical tasks.
  • You require the AI to adopt a specialized persona with strict constraints for creative writing or coding.
  • You want to optimize prompt length and token usage without losing essential context.

Key capabilities

  • Advanced prompt structuring and optimization techniques.
  • Persona adoption and role-playing configuration.
  • Constraint enforcement and output formatting control.
  • Iterative refinement of ambiguous user requests.
  • Context window management for complex multi-step tasks.

Example prompts

  • "Act as a senior prompt engineer to rewrite my request for generating Python unit tests so it produces fewer errors."
  • "Optimize this instruction set for summarizing legal contracts into bullet points while maintaining strict confidentiality constraints."
  • "Refine the following prompt to ensure the AI outputs JSON only, with no markdown formatting or conversational filler."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you provide enough context about your specific goals and desired output format before asking for optimization. This skill works best when paired with clear initial instructions rather than vague generalities.
