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
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.

About this skill
What it does
The electron-api skill provides access to Electron APIs within an AI agent. This allows agents to interact with the operating system, create and manage windows, and perform tasks typically associated with desktop applications. It enables more complex interactions beyond simple text generation or web browsing.
When to use it
- Automating Desktop Tasks: When you need an agent to automate repetitive actions within a desktop application (e.g., filling out forms, clicking buttons).
- Creating Native UI Elements: If your agent needs to display information or receive input through custom windows and controls instead of just text.
- System-Level Interactions: For tasks requiring access to system resources like file management or hardware control.
- Building Desktop Applications with AI: To combine the power of AI models with a traditional desktop application framework.
Key capabilities
- Access to Electron APIs
- Window creation and management
- Operating System interaction
- Native UI element generation
Example prompts
- "Create a window titled 'Report Generator' displaying a list of recent files."
- "Automate clicking the 'Save' button in this application."
- "Generate a dialog box asking for user confirmation before proceeding with file deletion."
Tips & gotchas
- Requires an environment that supports Electron. Not all AI agent platforms provide this capability.
- Understanding of basic Electron concepts (e.g., main process, renderer process) may be helpful to maximize effectiveness.
