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 ahmed6ww/ax-agents at 9b23779e23.

    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 provides guidance on implementing best practices for FastAPI applications. It helps ensure code quality, maintainability, and performance when building APIs with FastAPI. The skill focuses on structuring projects, handling dependencies, and optimizing API endpoints.

When to use it

  • New FastAPI Projects: To establish a solid foundation from the start by incorporating recommended architectural patterns.
  • Refactoring Existing Code: To improve the structure and efficiency of existing FastAPI applications.
  • Code Reviews: To ensure that new code adheres to established best practices for FastAPI development.
  • Troubleshooting Performance Issues: To identify potential bottlenecks and optimize API endpoints based on recommended techniques.

Key capabilities

  • Project structuring guidance
  • Dependency management recommendations
  • API endpoint optimization strategies

Example prompts

  • "Suggest a project structure for my new FastAPI application."
  • "How can I handle database connections in a FastAPI app?"
  • "What are some best practices for optimizing API response times in FastAPI?"

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes you have basic familiarity with Python and the FastAPI framework. While it provides guidance, practical implementation requires understanding of underlying concepts like asynchronous programming and dependency injection.
