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 davila7/claude-code-templates at 79182c51fb.

    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 AI agents to craft and refine prompts for optimal performance, particularly when working with code generation or natural language processing tasks. It includes templates and strategies for structuring queries to elicit precise responses from large language models.

When to use it

  • You need to generate clean, well-formatted code from natural language instructions.
  • You're troubleshooting unclear AI outputs and want to rephrase prompts for better results.
  • You are building a system that requires consistent and high-quality interactions with LLMs.

Key capabilities

  • Prompt structuring templates for code generation
  • Techniques for refining ambiguous or vague queries
  • Integration with frontend workflows for real-time prompt optimization

Example prompts

  • "Generate a React component for a to-do list with local storage support."
  • "Rewrite this prompt to make it clearer: 'I need some help with my app.'"
  • "Create a template that ensures AI outputs are formatted as JSON."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your input is specific and includes context when using the templates.
  • Some features may require integration with frontend frameworks like React or Vue for full functionality.
