Automated safety checks
This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.
Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
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

About this skill
What it does
This skill reviews .NET code for adherence to established design patterns, helping developers identify and correct anti-patterns or suboptimal implementations. It provides actionable feedback on how to refactor code to follow best practices in software architecture.
When to use it
- Before merging a feature branch into the main codebase to ensure clean architectural principles are followed.
- During code reviews to catch design flaws that may impact maintainability and scalability.
- When refactoring legacy .NET applications to modernize their structure and improve readability.
- To educate developers on proper usage of common patterns like Dependency Injection, Repository, or Singleton.
Key capabilities
- Identifies misuse or absence of common .NET design patterns
- Provides suggestions for code refactoring based on best practices
- Highlights potential performance issues tied to poor architectural choices
Example prompts
- "Review this C# class for adherence to the Repository pattern."
- "Check if this ASP.NET Core service follows Dependency Injection principles."
- "Analyze this .NET application for common anti-patterns and suggest improvements."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure your code is well-documented, as the tool may rely on comments to understand intent.
- This skill works best with clean, modular code; highly coupled or legacy systems may require manual intervention alongside automated feedback.
