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 julianobarbosa/claude-code-skills at 57f5fe8c0d.

    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, Consulting Design, leverages Gemini to provide design feedback and generate creative solutions for software projects. It analyzes design briefs and offers actionable insights on aesthetics, usability, and alignment with project goals. The skill utilizes two tools: ask-gemini for architectural review and trade-off analysis, and brainstorm for generating alternative ideas.

When to use it

  • You're designing a software system and want feedback on your current approach.
  • You need help identifying potential trade-offs in different design choices.
  • You’re facing a specific challenge in your design process and require creative solutions.
  • You want to explore alternative approaches to solving a design problem.

Key capabilities

  • Design Review: Analyzes existing designs and identifies areas for improvement.
  • Trade-off Analysis: Evaluates the pros and cons of different design options.
  • Brainstorming: Generates multiple creative solutions to design challenges using methodologies like divergent thinking, convergent thinking, SCAMPER, and Design Thinking.
  • Gemini Integration: Utilizes Gemini models (specifically gemini-2.5-pro) for responses.

Example prompts

  • "I'm designing a user authentication system. Current approach: Two-factor authentication via SMS. Trade-offs and alternatives?"
  • "How might we improve the onboarding flow for new users?"
  • “I’m designing [system]. Current approach: [desc]. Trade-offs and alternatives?”

Tips & gotchas

  • The ask-gemini tool can be used in "changeMode" to facilitate structured edits.
  • The brainstorm tool uses the “auto” methodology by default, but you can specify other methodologies like divergent or convergent thinking.
  • The sandbox: true option for ask-gemini allows for code execution.
