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 softaworks/agent-toolkit at 3027f20f31.

    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 codex skill enables AI agents to interact with and execute code in various programming languages. It allows users to write, test, and debug scripts directly within the agent interface, making it a powerful tool for developers and technical professionals.

When to use it

  • You need to run quick code snippets or perform calculations without leaving your current workflow.
  • You're troubleshooting a script or debugging an error in real time.
  • You want to prototype or test small pieces of logic before integrating them into larger projects.

Key capabilities

  • Execute code in multiple programming languages (e.g., Python, JavaScript).
  • Provide immediate feedback on the output and errors from executed scripts.
  • Support for interactive coding sessions with input/output handling.

Example prompts

  • "Run a Python script that calculates the factorial of 5."
  • "Debug this JavaScript function to fix the syntax error."
  • "Execute a shell command to list all files in the current directory."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your code is properly formatted and enclosed within delimiters (e.g., triple backticks) for accurate execution.
  • Be cautious with system-level commands or scripts that could have unintended side effects.
