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 benedictking/codex-review at 348ce8c85b.

    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-review skill enables AI agents to analyze and review code written in various programming languages. It can identify potential bugs, suggest improvements, and ensure adherence to best practices and coding standards.

When to use it

  • Before merging a pull request to catch errors or inefficiencies in the code
  • When refactoring legacy code to improve readability and maintainability
  • To enforce consistent coding style across a development team

Key capabilities

  • Code syntax checking
  • Identification of logical errors
  • Suggestion for performance optimizations
  • Compliance with coding standards

Example prompts

  • "Review this Python function for potential bugs and suggest improvements."
  • "Check the JavaScript code for adherence to ES6 standards."
  • "Analyze this C++ snippet for memory leaks or inefficiencies."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that the code being reviewed is well-formatted and includes clear comments for accurate analysis.
  • The skill may not detect context-specific issues, such as business logic errors, which require deeper domain knowledge.
