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 claude-code-community-ireland/claude-code-resources at b9f5c0fea3.

    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 provides access to a collection of refactoring patterns. It allows AI agents to understand and apply common code restructuring techniques to improve code quality, readability, and maintainability. The skill aims to help developers efficiently modernize legacy systems or enhance existing codebases by suggesting appropriate refactorings.

When to use it

  • When you need to improve the structure of a complex function or class.
  • To address code smells like duplicated code or long methods.
  • During code reviews, to suggest improvements and best practices.
  • When migrating legacy code to newer frameworks or languages.

Key capabilities

  • Access to a curated collection of refactoring patterns.
  • Ability to understand and apply common code restructuring techniques.
  • Suggestions for improving code quality, readability, and maintainability.

Example prompts

  • "Suggest a refactoring pattern for this duplicated code block."
  • "How can I extract this long method into smaller, more manageable functions?"
  • "What's the best way to replace this conditional statement with polymorphism?"

Tips & gotchas

The skill’s effectiveness depends on providing clear and concise code snippets as input. It is designed for backend development scenarios involving established programming languages.
