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 benjaminjackson/exa-skills at 14b3342dcf.

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

About this skill

What it does

The exa-websets-monitor skill allows AI agents to monitor and report on websets, which are collections of websites. It can track changes in website status (up or down), identify new websites added to a set, and flag potential issues within those sets. This provides valuable insight into the health and evolution of online resources.

When to use it

  • Website Health Monitoring: Regularly check the availability of critical websites for your business or personal projects.
  • Content Discovery: Identify newly published content on websites you track, enabling timely updates and analysis.
  • Competitive Analysis: Monitor competitor websites for changes in pricing, promotions, or product offerings.
  • Security Audits: Detect unexpected modifications to website structures that could indicate security vulnerabilities.

Key capabilities

  • Webset tracking
  • Website status monitoring (up/down)
  • New website detection within a webset
  • Issue flagging

Example prompts

  • "Monitor the webset at [webset URL] and alert me to any changes."
  • "Report on the status of all websites in the 'news' webset."
  • “Has anything new been added to the ‘ecommerce’ webset?”

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires a valid URL for the webset you want to monitor. Ensure the agent has sufficient permissions to access and analyze the target websites, as some sites may have restrictions or require authentication.
