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 dodopayments/skills at db432aa923.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides integration with Dodo Payments, an all-in-one platform for managing payments, billing, subscriptions, and distribution. It allows AI agents to interact with Dodo Payments' API to create products (one-time, subscription, or usage-based), manage credit entitlements (custom units or fiat currency), initiate checkout sessions for payment collection, and receive real-time updates via webhooks. The skill supports TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Go, and PHP programming languages.

When to use it

  • Automating the creation of new products in your Dodo Payments account.
  • Managing subscription statuses and handling customer billing cycles.
  • Responding to payment events (success or failure) through automated webhooks.
  • Integrating Dodo Payments into applications requiring recurring billing or usage-based pricing models.
  • Retrieving information about existing products, credit entitlements, or checkout sessions.

Key capabilities

  • Product Management: Creation of one-time, subscription, and usage-based products.
  • Credit Entitlement Configuration: Management of custom unit and fiat currency credits with rollover, overage, and expiration settings.
  • Checkout Session Initiation: Creating checkout sessions to collect payments from customers.
  • Webhook Handling: Receiving real-time updates for events like payment success/failure, subscription activation/cancellation, and refunds.
  • SDK Support: Provides SDKs for TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Go, and PHP.

Example prompts

  • "Create a new subscription product in Dodo Payments with ID 'premium_plan' priced at $10 per month."
  • "What is the status of checkout session [session ID]?"
  • "Retrieve all products from my Dodo Payments account."
  • “Configure a webhook to notify me when a payment fails.”

Tips & gotchas

  • You must have an active Dodo Payments account and API key.
  • Always refer to the official Dodo Payments documentation (docs.dodopayments.com) for the most up-to-date API reference and code examples.
  • Environment variables DODO_PAYMENTS_API_KEY and DODO_PAYMENTS_WEBHOOK_SECRET are required for authentication.
