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 aidotnet/moyucode at 9fa0412ff1.

    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 allows AI agents to create and interact with Express.js API applications. It can generate basic API endpoints, handle requests, and return responses in JSON format. The express-api skill simplifies the process of building backend functionality for various applications.

When to use it

  • Rapid Prototyping: Quickly build a simple API endpoint for testing or demonstration purposes.
  • Simple Backend Tasks: Automate tasks like fetching data from a database and presenting it through an API.
  • Internal Tool Development: Create lightweight APIs for internal tools or microservices within your organization.
  • Educational Purposes: Learn the basics of Express.js development by having the AI agent generate code snippets.

Key capabilities

  • Express.js application generation
  • API endpoint creation
  • JSON response handling
  • Request processing

Example prompts

  • "Create an API endpoint that returns a list of users."
  • "Generate an Express app with a GET route at /hello that responds with 'Hello, world!'"
  • "Build an API to fetch data from this URL: [example url]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires basic understanding of API concepts. While it simplifies the process, familiarity with JavaScript and Node.js will help in customizing and debugging generated code.
