Automated safety checks
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

About this skill
Data Validation
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to automatically verify the accuracy, consistency, and integrity of datasets before processing or analysis. It ensures that input data meets specific quality standards, preventing errors from propagating through downstream tasks.
When to use it
- Before feeding raw user inputs into complex reasoning models to avoid hallucinations based on bad data.
- During automated ETL pipelines to catch missing values, duplicates, or format mismatches early.
- When integrating external APIs where response schemas might change unexpectedly.
- Prior to training fine-tuning datasets to ensure high-quality learning material.
Key capabilities
- Automated schema checking against expected data structures.
- Detection of anomalies, outliers, and logical inconsistencies within records.
- Validation of data types, ranges, and required field presence.
- Real-time feedback on data quality issues for immediate correction.
Example prompts
- "Validate this CSV file against our customer database schema and list any missing mandatory fields."
- "Check the consistency of dates in this sales log; flag any entries where the order date is after the delivery date."
- "Run a data validation check on this JSON payload to ensure all required user profile attributes are present and correctly formatted."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure you define clear validation rules (e.g., specific formats or ranges) before running checks, as generic validation may miss domain-specific constraints. This skill is most effective when used proactively in the data ingestion pipeline rather than as a post-hoc cleanup tool.
