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 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 pluginagentmarketplace/custom-plugin-nodejs at adbdacbf26.

    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 express-rest-api skill enables AI agents to generate and manage RESTful APIs using Express.js, a popular Node.js framework. It allows for the creation of endpoints, routing logic, middleware integration, and handling HTTP requests and responses efficiently.

When to use it

  • Building scalable backend services for web applications
  • Rapidly prototyping API endpoints during development sprints
  • Integrating authentication or logging middleware into an Express application

Key capabilities

  • Generating RESTful routes with proper HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
  • Supporting middleware integration for features like authentication and logging
  • Creating modular and maintainable server structures

Example prompts

  • "Generate a REST API endpoint for creating user accounts using Express.js."
  • "Set up an Express server with route handlers for retrieving product data."
  • "Add JWT-based authentication middleware to an existing Express API."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure Node.js and Express are installed in your environment before use.
  • This skill assumes familiarity with basic JavaScript and REST principles for optimal results.
