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 dalehurley/phpbot at 6128f14773.

    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 allows an AI agent to check and report on unread emails. It retrieves a list of unread email subjects, sender information, and potentially other details depending on the underlying email system's capabilities. The agent can then summarize these findings or take actions based on them.

When to use it

  • Daily Briefing: Get a quick summary of new, unread emails each morning.
  • Prioritization Assistance: Identify important senders with unread messages requiring immediate attention.
  • Email Triage: Quickly scan for urgent requests or notifications hidden in your inbox.
  • Automated Follow-up: Trigger reminders or actions based on the presence of unread emails from specific contacts.

Key capabilities

  • Retrieves unread email subjects.
  • Identifies email senders.
  • Potentially retrieves additional email details (implementation dependent).

Example prompts

  • "What are my unread emails?"
  • "Show me the sender and subject of any new, unread messages."
  • “List all unread emails from [email protected].”

Tips & gotchas

This skill's functionality is heavily dependent on access to an email system and appropriate credentials. Ensure the AI agent has the necessary permissions to read your inbox.
