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 axtonliu/axton-obsidian-visual-skills at 1265976d97.

    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

The excalidraw-diagram skill enables AI agents to generate and manipulate diagrams using Excalidraw, a popular open-source diagramming tool. It allows for the creation of visual content such as flowcharts, mind maps, and sketches directly within an AI workflow.

When to use it

  • To create quick visual summaries or brainstorming diagrams during meetings or planning sessions.
  • For generating annotated illustrations in documentation or presentations.
  • When collaborating with teams that prefer visual communication over text-based descriptions.

Key capabilities

  • Integration with Excalidraw for diagram creation and editing.
  • Support for exporting diagrams as images or sharing via links.
  • Ability to generate diagrams based on natural language prompts.

Example prompts

  • "Create a flowchart showing the steps in the customer support process."
  • "Draw a mind map of project goals and subtasks."
  • "Generate an annotated diagram explaining how machine learning models work."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure you have access to Excalidraw or its API for full functionality.
  • Diagram complexity may be limited by the AI's interpretation of your prompt, so clarity in instructions is key.
