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 h1d/agent-skills-esp32 at d6696ace55.

    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 enables an AI agent to configure and manage serial logging on ESP32 devices. It allows for capturing debug information, sensor data, or other relevant output from the ESP32 directly to a serial port, which can then be accessed and analyzed by external systems. This is particularly useful for debugging embedded applications and monitoring device behavior in real-time.

When to use it

  • Debugging Embedded Code: When encountering issues with your ESP32 code, this skill can help log variable values and function calls to pinpoint the source of errors.
  • Monitoring Sensor Data: If you're collecting data from sensors connected to an ESP32, serial logging provides a simple way to transmit that data for analysis or storage.
  • Remote Diagnostics: In deployed devices, this skill can allow remote access to diagnostic information without physically connecting to the device.
  • System Health Checks: Log key system metrics like memory usage and CPU load to identify potential performance bottlenecks.

Key capabilities

  • Serial port configuration (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits)
  • Log message formatting
  • Timestamping of log messages
  • Filtering of log messages based on severity level

Example prompts

  • "Configure serial logging on ESP32 with a baud rate of 115200."
  • "Start logging sensor readings from the DHT22 to the serial port, including timestamps."
  • "Filter and only log error-level messages from the ESP32."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires an active connection to the ESP32 device via a serial interface.
  • Excessive logging can impact performance; carefully consider what data is essential to capture.
