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 flux-point-studios/cardano-agent-skills at 727e02f3f7.

    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

This skill retrieves current Cardano protocol parameters, such as block size, slot duration, minimum fees, and UTxO costs. It provides access to these crucial values for developers and analysts who need up-to-date information about the Cardano network's operational rules. If cardano-cli is not installed locally, it can run within a Docker container using a provided wrapper script.

When to use it

  • Fetching fresh protocol parameters for development or analysis.
  • Understanding inputs used in fee calculations.
  • Debugging issues related to minimum UTxO size or Plutus script execution budgets.
  • Comparing protocol parameters across different Cardano networks (e.g., mainnet vs. testnets).

Key capabilities

  • Retrieves Cardano protocol parameters using cardano-cli.
  • Provides a Docker fallback mode for environments without cardano-cli installed.
  • Includes scripts to fetch and extract key parameter values from the output.
  • Offers example workflows for debugging UTxO errors and estimating script execution costs.

Example prompts

  • "Get the current protocol parameters for the Cardano testnet."
  • "What is the minFeeA value on mainnet?"
  • "Show me the coinsPerUTxOByte parameter."

Tips & gotchas

  • Always fetch fresh parameters for the specific network you are targeting, as parameters differ between mainnet and testnets.
  • For reproducibility, save the retrieved protocol parameters (pparams.json) alongside transaction artifacts.
  • If using Docker fallback, ensure CARDANO_NODE_SOCKET_PATH is set if a local node socket is available for faster queries.
