Live repository

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 duck4nh/antigravity-kit at 90de2acb0b.

    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 duck4nh-refactoring-expert skill helps improve code quality and maintainability. It can analyze existing code, identify areas for improvement, and suggest or automatically implement refactorings to enhance readability, reduce complexity, and eliminate redundancy. This skill is designed to streamline the process of modernizing legacy systems or improving the design of new projects.

When to use it

  • Legacy Codebase Modernization: Refactor a large, complex codebase to improve its structure and make it easier to understand and maintain.
  • Code Review Assistance: Get suggestions for refactoring during code reviews to ensure consistent coding standards and best practices.
  • Improving Readability: Simplify convoluted functions or classes to enhance clarity and reduce cognitive load for developers.
  • Reducing Technical Debt: Address specific areas of technical debt by applying targeted refactorings.

Key capabilities

  • Code analysis
  • Refactoring suggestions
  • Automated refactoring implementation

Example prompts

  • "Analyze this Python function and suggest ways to improve its readability."
  • "Refactor this Java class to use the Strategy pattern."
  • "Identify any code smells in this JavaScript file and propose solutions."

Tips & gotchas

This skill is most effective when provided with well-formatted, reasonably sized code snippets. Large files may require iterative processing for optimal results.
