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 grishaangelovgh/gemini-cli-agent-skills at 87bb6c9bff.

    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 refactors existing code to improve its readability, maintainability, and performance. It can identify areas for simplification, eliminate redundancy, and apply design patterns to enhance the overall structure of a codebase. The skill aims to produce cleaner, more efficient code while preserving functionality.

When to use it

  • Legacy Codebases: Improve the clarity and efficiency of older code that has accumulated technical debt.
  • Complex Functions/Modules: Refactor large or convoluted functions into smaller, more manageable units.
  • Performance Bottlenecks: Optimize slow-running sections of code by identifying inefficiencies and suggesting improvements.
  • Code Reviews: Assist in code reviews by automatically suggesting refactoring opportunities to junior developers.

Key capabilities

  • Identifies redundant code blocks
  • Suggests simplification of complex logic
  • Applies design patterns (not specified which)
  • Improves code readability
  • Enhances code maintainability

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this Python function to improve its readability: [code snippet]"
  • "Can you suggest ways to simplify this JavaScript module? [code snippet]"
  • "Optimize this Java class for performance. [code snippet]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on the quality and clarity of the provided code. It is recommended to provide well-formatted code snippets for optimal results.
