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 davepoon/buildwithclaude at fc03a95b41.

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

1 file, 222 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 automates tasks within Telegram. It can send messages to specific users or groups, respond to incoming messages based on predefined rules, and potentially perform other actions supported by the Telegram Bot API. The skill aims to streamline communication and automate repetitive processes directly within Telegram.

When to use it

  • Automate daily reports: Send a summary of data or updates to a team chat every morning.
  • Respond to common inquiries: Automatically answer frequently asked questions from users via direct message.
  • Manage event registrations: Process sign-ups and confirmations through a Telegram bot.
  • Send reminders: Automatically send notifications for upcoming deadlines or appointments.

Key capabilities

  • Sending messages to Telegram users/groups
  • Responding to incoming Telegram messages
  • Telegram Bot API integration

Example prompts

  • "Send a message to @mytelegramuser saying 'Meeting is confirmed!'"
  • "When someone sends 'help', reply with 'Check our website for FAQs.'"
  • “Create a scheduled message to send daily at 9am to the ‘team-updates’ group.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a Telegram Bot API token and appropriate permissions within Telegram.
  • The specific actions possible depend on the underlying Telegram Bot API capabilities and how this skill is implemented.
