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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 9 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: blog.cleancoder.com, en.wikipedia.org, martinfowler.com, pragprog.com, refactoring.com….

    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.

  • 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 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

About this skill

What it does

This skill helps AI agents understand and apply clean code principles to improve the readability, maintainability, and efficiency of backend code. It provides guidance on writing concise functions, organizing code structure, and following best practices like DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) and KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid).

When to use it

  • Refactoring legacy code to make it more readable and maintainable
  • Writing new backend logic where clarity and efficiency are critical
  • Reviewing code for a team to ensure consistency in coding standards
  • Preparing documentation or tutorials on clean code practices

Key capabilities

  • Identifies redundant or complex code patterns
  • Suggests refactoring strategies based on clean code principles
  • Applies naming conventions and structure improvements
  • Provides feedback on function size, modularity, and separation of concerns

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this backend function to follow the DRY principle."
  • "Suggest ways to improve the readability of this Python script."
  • "Analyze this code for adherence to clean code best practices."

Tips & gotchas

  • This skill works best when provided with clear, well-documented code snippets.
  • It may not handle highly domain-specific logic without additional context or customization.
