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 dicklesworthstone/agent_flywheel_clawdbot_skills_and_integrations at 4d332440c3.

    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

Bv (Beads Viewer) is a triage engine specifically designed for Beads projects, which use .beads/beads.jsonl files. It analyzes these project files by computing nine graph metrics to identify key dependencies and potential bottlenecks. Bv provides deterministic recommendations and flags structural errors like circular dependencies, streamlining data analysis and accelerating insights for quicker decision-making within a Beads project. Crucially, it offers "Robot Mode" designed specifically for AI agent integration.

When to use it

  • Analyzing large Beads projects to identify foundational blockers.
  • Pinpointing bottlenecks that are hindering release progress.
  • Detecting and resolving circular dependencies (structural errors) within a Beads project.
  • Prioritizing tasks and identifying quick wins in a Beads workflow.
  • Understanding the influence of different components through eigenvector analysis.

Key capabilities

  • Computes nine graph metrics: PageRank, Betweenness, HITS, Critical Path, Eigenvector, Degree, Density, Cycles, and Topo Sort.
  • Provides deterministic recommendations for project triage and planning.
  • Flags circular dependencies explicitly.
  • Offers "Robot Mode" with various commands for AI agent integration (e.g., bv --robot-triage, bv --robot-next).
  • Performs a two-phase analysis: quick metrics are computed instantly, while more complex ones have a 500ms timeout.

Example prompts

  • bv --robot-triage: To get full triage recommendations, including quick wins and blockers to clear.
  • bv --robot-next: To receive the single top pick for immediate action.
  • bv --robot-insights: To view all computed graph metrics for a comprehensive project analysis.

Tips & gotchas

  • Robot Mode is essential: Never run Bv without using one of the --robot-* flags, as it will launch an interactive TUI that blocks your session.
  • Large graphs may be approximate: For projects with over 500 nodes, some graph metrics might be approximated due to computational constraints.
  • Check the status field: Always review the "status" field in the output to understand if any metrics were skipped or are approximate.
