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 yanko-belov/code-craft at ca5e2ff60e.

    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

This skill allows AI agents to generate and interpret various types of error responses. It can produce standard HTTP status codes, custom error messages with specific formatting, and even simulate errors based on provided parameters. The goal is to improve the robustness and user experience of applications by handling unexpected situations gracefully.

When to use it

  • Simulating API failures: Test how your application handles different scenarios when external APIs are unavailable or return errors.
  • Generating custom error pages: Create visually appealing and informative error pages for web applications beyond simple "500 Internal Server Error" messages.
  • Developing robust chatbots: Ensure a chatbot can respond appropriately to invalid user input or unexpected requests, providing helpful guidance instead of crashing.
  • Testing edge cases: Verify your application’s behavior under unusual circumstances and ensure it recovers gracefully from errors.

Key capabilities

  • Generate HTTP status codes (e.g., 400, 401, 500)
  • Create custom error messages
  • Simulate errors based on parameters
  • Format error responses for specific contexts

Example prompts

  • "Generate a 404 Not Found error message with a friendly explanation."
  • "Simulate a 503 Service Unavailable error and include a retry suggestion."
  • "Create an error response indicating invalid input, specifying the expected format."

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on providing clear instructions regarding the type of error to simulate or generate. Specificity in your prompts will yield more relevant results.
