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 simhacker/moollm at 8f6d840b2f.

    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 allows an AI agent to engage in debates, presenting arguments and counter-arguments on a given topic. It can formulate reasoned positions, respond to opposing viewpoints, and structure its responses in a debate format. The skill aims to facilitate structured discussions and explore different perspectives.

When to use it

  • Simulating Discussions: Use the skill to simulate conversations or debates with an AI agent for training purposes or exploring complex topics.
  • Generating Arguments: Request arguments for or against a specific proposition, allowing you to quickly gather potential viewpoints.
  • Exploring Different Perspectives: Ask the agent to debate a topic from multiple angles to gain a broader understanding of the issue.
  • Content Creation: Generate content that presents opposing views in a structured and engaging format.

Key capabilities

  • Argument generation
  • Counter-argument formulation
  • Debate structuring
  • Reasoned position taking

Example prompts

  • "Debate whether artificial intelligence poses an existential threat to humanity."
  • "Argue for the benefits of remote work, and then argue against it."
  • "Present a debate on the merits of universal basic income."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the debate depends heavily on the clarity and specificity of your initial prompt. Providing context or defining specific roles can improve results.
