Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides a starter project for building Express.js applications with TypeScript. It sets up a basic project structure, includes essential dependencies like nodemon for development and @types/express for type safety, and offers a foundation to quickly begin developing backend APIs or web servers. The generated project is ready to be customized and extended.
When to use it
- You need to quickly scaffold a new Express.js application with TypeScript.
- You want a pre-configured development environment including hot reloading via
nodemon. - You're starting a backend project and prefer using TypeScript for improved code maintainability and type safety.
- You are looking for a minimal, opinionated base to build upon.
Key capabilities
- Express.js application setup
- TypeScript integration with
@types/express - Nodemon for automatic server restarts during development
- Pre-defined project structure
Example prompts
- "Create an Express TypeScript starter project."
- "Generate a new backend project using Express and TypeScript."
- “Set up a basic API server with TypeScript.”
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure you have Node.js installed before using this skill, as it relies on Node packages.
- The generated project is intended to be a starting point; further configuration (e.g., database connections, routing) will be required for full functionality.
