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 davepoon/buildwithclaude at fc03a95b41.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

1 file, 180 lines
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 automates tasks within CircleCI, a popular continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform. It allows AI agents to trigger builds, check build statuses, and manage workflows without direct human intervention. This can streamline development pipelines and reduce manual effort for DevOps teams.

When to use it

  • Automated testing: Trigger automated tests in your CircleCI project after code commits or scheduled intervals.
  • Deployment automation: Automatically deploy applications to various environments (staging, production) upon successful build completion.
  • Build status monitoring: Proactively check the status of builds and alert relevant team members about failures.
  • Workflow management: Manage complex CI/CD workflows by triggering specific jobs or branches within CircleCI.

Key capabilities

  • Triggering CircleCI builds
  • Checking build statuses
  • Managing CircleCI workflows

Example prompts

  • "Run the 'deploy-staging' job in my CircleCI project."
  • "What is the status of the latest build for the 'main' branch?"
  • "Trigger a new build on the 'develop' branch after this code commit."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires appropriate API tokens and permissions configured within your CircleCI account.
  • The skill’s effectiveness depends on well-defined CircleCI project configurations.
