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 lingzhi227/agent-research-skills at 9e6c085d65.

    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 code-debugging skill assists in identifying and resolving errors within code. It can analyze provided code snippets, pinpoint the source of bugs, and suggest potential fixes or improvements. This skill aims to streamline the debugging process, helping users quickly resolve issues and improve code quality.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting a specific error message: You've received an error while running your program and need help understanding what went wrong.
  • Identifying performance bottlenecks: Your code is slow, and you want the skill to analyze it and suggest optimizations.
  • Reviewing unfamiliar code: You’re working with someone else's code and need assistance in understanding its logic and potential issues.
  • Finding logical errors: The code runs without error but doesn't produce the expected output, requiring a deeper investigation of the program flow.

Key capabilities

  • Error identification
  • Bug localization
  • Fix suggestions
  • Performance analysis
  • Code review

Example prompts

  • "Can you debug this Python code and explain why it’s not working?" [followed by code snippet]
  • "I'm getting a 'TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'int' and 'str'' error. What does that mean, and how can I fix it?"
  • "Please review this JavaScript function for potential performance issues."

Tips & gotchas

The skill performs best with clear and concise code snippets. Providing context about the intended functionality of the code will significantly improve the accuracy of debugging suggestions.
