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 simhacker/moollm at 8f6d840b2f.

    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

This skill allows AI agents to reason about learning through building and exploring. It facilitates understanding complex topics by relating them to tangible constructions, encouraging a hands-on approach to knowledge acquisition. The agent can generate explanations that emphasize the iterative process of design, build, test, and refine.

When to use it

  • Explaining scientific concepts like physics or engineering principles to learners.
  • Developing lesson plans for educational purposes focusing on project-based learning.
  • Generating creative writing prompts centered around building something (physical or conceptual).
  • Troubleshooting a design problem by suggesting iterative improvements and testing strategies.

Key capabilities

  • Reasoning about construction processes.
  • Generating explanations based on a "build, test, refine" cycle.
  • Relating abstract concepts to tangible constructions.
  • Creating educational content emphasizing hands-on learning.

Example prompts

  • “Explain how an engine works using the analogy of building with LEGOs.”
  • “Generate a lesson plan for teaching kids about simple machines through construction projects.”
  • "Describe how I could improve this bridge design, focusing on structural integrity."

Tips & gotchas

The skill is most effective when applied to topics that can be reasonably visualized or related to physical building processes. It may struggle with purely abstract concepts lacking a tangible component.
