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 trailofbits/skills at 82fe822625.

    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-maturity-assessor skill evaluates the quality and maturity of software codebases, identifying potential issues such as security vulnerabilities, maintainability concerns, and adherence to best practices. It provides actionable insights that help developers improve their code's reliability and performance.

When to use it

  • Before deploying a new application to identify hidden risks or inefficiencies
  • During code reviews to ensure compliance with internal standards
  • After a major refactor to assess the impact on code quality
  • To benchmark the maturity of multiple codebases for comparison

Key capabilities

  • Detects common security vulnerabilities in code
  • Assesses code maintainability and readability
  • Evaluates adherence to coding best practices
  • Provides prioritized recommendations for improvement

Example prompts

  • "Analyze this Python project for potential security issues."
  • "Evaluate the code quality of my JavaScript application."
  • "Check if this C++ codebase follows modern best practices."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that the codebase is accessible and well-documented for accurate analysis.
  • The tool may not detect context-specific or domain-related issues, so manual review is still recommended.
