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
Only contacts known or declared hosts: registry.npmjs.org.
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.
Hosts contacted
registry.npmjs.orgpackage registryNo 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
The developing-preact skill enables AI agents to build, configure, and maintain applications using the Preact library. It facilitates the creation of lightweight React-compatible components and manages the associated development lifecycle within a codebase.
When to use it
- You need to scaffold new projects specifically utilizing the Preact framework instead of standard React.
- Your application requires a minimal bundle size for performance-critical environments like IoT or mobile web apps.
- You are refactoring existing codebases to migrate away from heavier dependencies while maintaining component logic.
- You require assistance with setting up build configurations and tooling tailored to Preact's specific requirements.
Key capabilities
- Generating project scaffolds initialized with the Preact ecosystem.
- Writing functional components compatible with Preact's virtual DOM.
- Configuring build pipelines for optimized asset delivery.
- Managing state and lifecycle hooks within a Preact context.
Example prompts
- "Create a new Preact project structure with TypeScript support and configure Vite as the bundler."
- "Write a reusable modal component using Preact hooks that handles focus trapping automatically."
- "Refactor this existing React codebase to use Preact, ensuring all custom hooks are adapted correctly."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your development environment has Node.js installed before attempting to initialize any new projects. While Preact is highly compatible with React, some third-party libraries may require specific configuration or alternative packages to function correctly in a Preact environment.
