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
What it does
This skill assists in debugging Ruby on Rails applications. It can analyze error messages, stack traces, and code snippets to identify the root cause of issues. The agent can also suggest potential fixes and improvements based on its understanding of Rails conventions and best practices.
When to use it
- You're encountering a cryptic error message in your Rails application and need help understanding what went wrong.
- A test is failing, and you want the AI to analyze the code and provide insights into why it’s breaking.
- You suspect a performance bottleneck in a specific Rails route or controller action.
- You're unfamiliar with a particular part of your Rails codebase and need assistance understanding its functionality and potential issues.
Key capabilities
- Error message analysis
- Stack trace interpretation
- Code snippet debugging
- Suggestion of fixes and improvements
- Rails conventions knowledge
Example prompts
- "I'm getting a
NoMethodErrorin my Rails app. Here’s the error message and stack trace: [paste error info here]" - "This test is failing: [paste test code]. Can you help me understand why?"
- "Can you review this Rails controller action for potential performance issues? [paste code]"
Tips & gotchas
- Provide as much context as possible, including relevant code snippets and error messages. The more information provided, the better the agent can assist with debugging.
