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 cin12211/orca-q at 3142fe610b.

    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 refactor skill improves existing code by restructuring and simplifying it. It aims to enhance readability, maintainability, and potentially performance without altering the core functionality of the original code. The skill can handle various programming languages and focuses on applying established refactoring patterns.

When to use it

  • Legacy Codebase: To improve an older codebase that is difficult to understand or modify.
  • Code Reviews: As part of a code review process, to suggest improvements for clarity and efficiency.
  • Performance Optimization: To identify areas in the code where restructuring could lead to performance gains.
  • Technical Debt Reduction: To systematically address accumulated technical debt by improving existing code.

Key capabilities

  • Restructuring code for improved readability
  • Simplifying complex logic
  • Applying established refactoring patterns
  • Support for multiple programming languages (unspecified)
  • Maintaining original functionality during the refactoring process

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this Python function to improve its readability." [followed by Python code]
  • "Suggest improvements for this JavaScript block of code." [followed by Javascript code]
  • "Can you simplify this Java method?" [followed by Java code]

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the refactoring depends heavily on the clarity and structure of the original code. Providing well-formatted, commented code will yield better results.
