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 davila7/claude-code-templates at 79182c51fb.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables an AI agent to act as a marketing copy editor, systematically refining existing text for clarity, grammar, brand voice consistency, and persuasive impact. It utilizes a structured approach called the “Seven Sweeps Framework” which focuses on distinct dimensions of improvement in sequential passes, ensuring enhancements without altering the core message. The goal is to enhance, not rewrite, the original content while preserving the author's intended voice.

When to use it

  • You have marketing copy that needs polishing before publication or distribution.
  • You want to ensure your brand voice remains consistent across all marketing materials.
  • You need help translating features into benefits for your target audience.
  • Your copy feels unclear or confusing, and you're looking for a systematic way to improve it.
  • You want to strengthen the persuasive impact of your marketing messaging.

Key capabilities

  • Seven Sweeps Framework: A structured editing process focusing on Clarity, Voice & Tone, "So What," and other dimensions.
  • Clarity Enhancement: Identifies and corrects confusing sentence structures, jargon, ambiguous statements, and missing context.
  • Voice Consistency: Ensures a consistent brand personality and tone throughout the copy.
  • Benefit-Driven Messaging: Translates features into tangible benefits for the reader using the "So What?" test.
  • Preserves Author's Voice: Maintains the original author’s style while improving clarity and impact.

Example prompts

  • "Copy edit this marketing email, focusing on clarity first."
  • "Review this landing page copy and ensure a consistent brand voice."
  • "Can you apply the 'So What?' test to these product descriptions?"

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill focuses solely on editing existing copy; it does not generate new content.
  • It's designed for marketing and conversion copy, so results may vary with other types of writing.
  • To get the best results, provide clear context about your brand voice and target audience.
