Install target

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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    SKILL.md frontmatter is missing 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 ofershap/expo-best-practices at 0d51aed225.

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

Scanned
1 file, 258 lines
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.

When to use it

  • You're starting a new Expo project and want to set up a solid foundation from the beginning.
  • You’re encountering performance issues in an existing Expo application and need suggestions for optimization.
  • You are refactoring an older Expo project and want to modernize its structure and codebase.
  • You want to ensure your Expo app adheres to current industry standards and best practices.

Key capabilities

  • Project structuring recommendations
  • Performance optimization tips
  • Code quality guidelines
  • Guidance on leveraging Expo features effectively

Example prompts

  • "What's the recommended folder structure for a new Expo project?"
  • "How can I optimize image loading performance in my Expo app?"
  • "Suggest best practices for managing state within an Expo application."

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes you have a basic understanding of React Native and Expo development. While it provides guidance, implementing these recommendations requires familiarity with the underlying technologies.
