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.

About this skill
The bash-linux skill enables AI agents to execute Linux shell commands directly within a terminal environment, allowing for system administration and file manipulation. It provides access to standard utilities like ls, cd, grep, and cat to interact with the operating system's file structure.
When to use it
- Navigating directory structures to locate specific configuration files or logs.
- Running diagnostic commands to check system status or process health.
- Executing quick text searches across multiple files using tools like
grep. - Performing basic file operations such as creating, renaming, or deleting resources.
Key capabilities
- Direct execution of standard Linux command-line utilities.
- Real-time interaction with the host operating system's file system.
- Support for piping and chaining commands to build complex workflows.
- Access to environment variables and current working directory context.
Example prompts
- "List all files in the current directory that end with
.log." - "Search for the word 'error' in
/var/log/syslogand show me the last 10 lines." - "Create a new file named
config.txtinside the~/projectsfolder."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure the AI agent has appropriate permissions (e.g., sudo access) before attempting to modify system files or install packages. Always verify command outputs carefully, as direct shell execution can lead to unintended changes if not monitored closely.
