Install target

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 mims-harvard/tooluniverse at f5c37eebeb.

    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 enables the discovery and installation of custom capabilities directly into AI agents. It expands an agent's functionality by allowing users to integrate new tools or logic from the ToolUniverse ecosystem without manual coding.

When to use it

  • You need to equip a generic AI agent with specialized industry-specific tools.
  • You want to extend an existing agent’s workflow with pre-built community skills.
  • You are building a multi-agent system and require standardized skill sharing.
  • You need to rapidly prototype new agent behaviors using available components.

Key capabilities

  • Browse and search the ToolUniverse repository for available skills.
  • Install selected skills directly into your AI agent environment.
  • Manage a dynamic library of extensible agent functionalities.
  • Discover community-contributed tools created by other developers.

Example prompts

  • "Help me install a data analysis skill from the ToolUniverse so I can process CSV files."
  • "Show me available skills for automating customer support workflows that I can add to my agent."
  • "How do I discover and integrate a new coding assistant skill into my current setup?"

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent environment supports external skill injection before attempting installation. Verify compatibility between the installed skill and your specific agent framework to prevent runtime errors.
