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 codelab614/agents-skills at b997840824.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

Scanned
4 files, 763 lines
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 guidance and code examples for adhering to TypeScript best practices. It helps ensure code is readable, maintainable, and less prone to errors through the application of recommended patterns and techniques. The skill focuses on improving overall code quality within a TypeScript project.

When to use it

  • Refactoring existing TypeScript code: To improve readability and reduce technical debt in an older codebase.
  • Onboarding new developers: To ensure consistent coding styles and adherence to best practices across a team.
  • Creating new TypeScript projects: To establish a solid foundation of clean, maintainable code from the start.
  • Reviewing pull requests: To automatically identify potential areas for improvement in submitted code changes.

Key capabilities

  • Provides guidance on type safety and usage.
  • Offers suggestions for improving code readability.
  • Demonstrates best practices for structuring TypeScript projects.
  • Suggests patterns for error handling and debugging.

Example prompts

  • "How can I improve the type safety of this function?" (Provide a code snippet)
  • "What's the recommended way to structure a React component in TypeScript?"
  • "Give me an example of using generics effectively."

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes basic familiarity with TypeScript syntax and concepts. While it offers guidance, understanding core TypeScript principles will help you apply its suggestions more effectively.
