Install target

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 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.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 3 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: electronjs.org, timestamp.digicert.com, www.apple.com.

    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.

  • 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 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 chrisvoncsefalvay/claude-skills at 62b3ad3c4b.

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

5 files, 2,768 lines
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 electron-scaffold skill provides a basic Electron application structure, preconfigured with common dependencies and tooling. It allows for rapid prototyping of desktop applications using web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript). This scaffolding includes setup for build processes, testing frameworks, and package management.

When to use it

  • You need to quickly start developing a cross-platform desktop application.
  • You want a pre-configured Electron project with sensible defaults.
  • You're familiar with web development technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) but new to Electron.
  • You are prototyping an application and need a basic structure to build upon.

Key capabilities

  • Electron Application Structure
  • Pre-configured Dependencies
  • Build Process Setup
  • Testing Framework Integration
  • Package Management

Example prompts

  • "Create an Electron app with React."
  • "Generate a new Electron project using Typescript."
  • "Scaffold an Electron application with basic UI elements."

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes familiarity with command-line tools and package managers like npm or yarn. The generated scaffold is intended as a starting point; further customization will likely be required for specific application needs.
