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 jeffallan/claude-skills at 1be15d8064.

    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 cli-developer skill allows AI agents to interact with and manage command-line interfaces. It can execute commands, interpret output, and automate tasks typically performed in a terminal environment. This enables the agent to perform actions like installing software packages, running scripts, and configuring systems through CLI tools.

When to use it

  • Automated Software Installation: Have the AI install dependencies or applications on a development machine.
  • Script Execution: Run shell scripts for repetitive tasks such as data processing or system maintenance.
  • System Configuration: Automate configuration changes using command-line tools like terraform or ansible.
  • Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve technical issues by executing diagnostic commands and analyzing the results.

Key capabilities

  • Command execution
  • Output interpretation
  • Script automation
  • System configuration via CLI

Example prompts

  • "Run 'ls -l' in this directory and tell me what files are present."
  • "Execute 'npm install react@latest' to install the latest version of React."
  • "Can you run terraform apply?"

Tips & gotchas

The agent needs appropriate permissions to execute commands on the target system. Be mindful of security implications when granting access and consider sandboxing environments for sensitive operations.
