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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.

    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 github/awesome-copilot at 6c4d33b9cf.

    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 automates the creation of a Spring Boot Java project, including setting up necessary dependencies, directory structure, and configuration files. It streamlines the initial setup process for developers looking to start a new backend application quickly.

When to use it

  • You need to rapidly prototype a new Spring Boot application without manually configuring build tools or project structure.
  • You are onboarding a new team member and want to provide them with a ready-to-use project template.
  • You're preparing for a workshop or tutorial that requires a clean, pre-configured Spring Boot environment.

Key capabilities

  • Generates standard Maven or Gradle project structures.
  • Includes default configuration files like application.properties or application.yml.
  • Adds common dependencies such as Spring Web and Spring Data JPA.

Example prompts

  • "Create a new Spring Boot Java project with REST API support."
  • "Generate a Spring Boot project using Maven and include H2 database dependency."
  • "Set up a basic Spring Boot application with a starter web module."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure you have the appropriate build tool (Maven or Gradle) installed before generating the project.
  • Customize generated files as needed, since default configurations may not suit all use cases.
