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 braselog/researchassistant at 6e1e60a1d7.

    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

The braselog-hypothesis-generation skill generates research hypotheses based on provided text. It can identify potential relationships and suggest testable statements for further investigation. This is useful for accelerating the initial phases of a research project or brainstorming new avenues of inquiry.

When to use it

  • Literature Review: Quickly generate potential research questions from a large body of existing literature.
  • Data Exploration: Formulate hypotheses about relationships within a dataset you're exploring.
  • Brainstorming: Spark new ideas and directions for a project by having the skill suggest possible hypotheses.
  • Initial Research Planning: Develop preliminary hypotheses to guide your research design and data collection efforts.

Key capabilities

  • Hypothesis generation from text input
  • Identification of potential relationships within provided information
  • Suggestion of testable statements

Example prompts

  • "Generate some research hypotheses based on this article about climate change."
  • "What are some possible explanations for the correlation between X and Y in this dataset?"
  • "Suggest a few hypotheses I could investigate regarding the impact of social media on teenagers."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of generated hypotheses depends heavily on the clarity and relevance of the input text. Providing well-defined context will yield more useful results.
