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 curiouslearner/devkit at 3fa45b7ab3.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

1 file, 443 lines
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 assists users with Docker commands and operations. It can generate docker run commands based on user descriptions, help troubleshoot common Docker issues, and explain Docker concepts. The agent leverages its knowledge of Dockerfile syntax and best practices to provide helpful guidance.

When to use it

  • You need help constructing a complex docker run command with specific port mappings or volume mounts.
  • You're encountering an error while building a Docker image and require assistance in identifying the root cause.
  • You want a clear explanation of a Docker concept, such as networking or container lifecycle management.
  • You need help understanding how to optimize your Dockerfile for smaller image sizes.

Key capabilities

  • Generates docker run commands
  • Troubleshoots Docker errors
  • Explains Docker concepts
  • Provides guidance on optimizing Dockerfiles

Example prompts

  • "Generate a docker run command that maps port 8080 on my host to port 80 in the container."
  • "I'm getting an error 'permission denied' when trying to mount a volume. What could be wrong?"
  • "Explain Docker networking in simple terms."

Tips & gotchas

The skill assumes basic familiarity with Docker terminology. Providing specific details about your environment (e.g., image name, host OS) will improve the accuracy of its responses.
