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 fractionestate/midnight-dev-skills at 9cad80c46e.

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

About this skill

What it does

The compact skill helps AI agents reduce the length of text while retaining key information. It's designed to condense verbose descriptions, summaries, or articles into more concise versions. The agent can adjust the level of compression and maintain specific formatting requirements during this process.

When to use it

  • Summarizing lengthy legal documents for easier review.
  • Creating short, impactful marketing copy from longer product descriptions.
  • Reducing the size of technical documentation for improved readability.
  • Condensing research papers into abstracts or executive summaries.

Key capabilities

  • Text compression
  • Information retention
  • Formatting preservation
  • Adjustable compression level

Example prompts

  • "Compact this product description to under 100 words."
  • "Summarize this legal document, focusing on key clauses and obligations."
  • "Reduce the length of this article while maintaining a professional tone."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the compacted text depends heavily on the clarity and structure of the original content. Complex or poorly written source material may result in less satisfactory condensed versions.
