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 charon-fan/agent-playbook at be7a9d7d17.

    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, charon-fan-api-designer, helps you design and prototype APIs. It allows you to define API endpoints, request parameters, and response structures in a structured format. The tool then generates documentation and potentially code stubs based on your designs, streamlining the backend development process.

When to use it

  • Rapid Prototyping: Quickly sketch out API designs before committing to full implementation.
  • Documentation Generation: Automatically create API documentation from design specifications.
  • Collaboration: Share and iterate on API designs with team members.
  • Backend Development Planning: Define the structure of your backend services upfront, improving clarity and reducing errors.

Key capabilities

  • API endpoint definition
  • Request parameter specification
  • Response structure creation
  • Documentation generation (implied)
  • Code stub generation (implied)

Example prompts

  • "Design an API endpoint for retrieving user profiles."
  • "Create a POST request to create a new order, with fields for customer ID and items."
  • "Show me the documentation for the 'get-products' API."

Tips & gotchas

This skill likely requires some understanding of API design principles. The generated code stubs may need further refinement depending on your specific technology stack.
