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 descope/skills at 622db17228.

    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

The descope-auth skill provides authentication capabilities to AI agents, allowing them to securely interact with Descope services. It handles user login and session management, enabling access to protected resources within the Descope platform. This simplifies integration of authentication flows into agent workflows.

When to use it

  • Secure API Access: When your agent needs to call APIs that require authentication via Descope.
  • User Data Retrieval: To securely retrieve user data stored in Descope, such as profile information or preferences.
  • Automated Workflows: For automating tasks within the Descope platform that necessitate a logged-in session.
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): When your agent needs to handle users who have MFA enabled in Descope.

Key capabilities

  • User login and authentication
  • Session management
  • Integration with Descope services
  • Support for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Example prompts

  • "Authenticate the user with email '[email protected]' and password 'password'."
  • "Retrieve the profile information for the currently authenticated user."
  • "Log out of the current session."

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires a Descope project to be configured beforehand, including API keys and application details. Ensure these credentials are securely provided to the AI agent environment.
