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 bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills at 718070a7d6.

    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

The fastapi-local-dev skill enables AI agents to set up and manage local development environments for FastAPI projects. It automates the installation of dependencies, configuration of virtual environments, and initialization of project structures to streamline backend workflows.

When to use it

  • Rapidly spin up a new FastAPI service for prototyping or testing without manual setup steps.
  • Ensure consistent dependency versions across different team members' local machines.
  • Initialize a standard project structure including requirements.txt and .env files automatically.
  • Prepare a clean, isolated environment for running unit tests or debugging API endpoints.

Key capabilities

  • Installs FastAPI and related libraries (e.g., uvicorn, pydantic) into a local virtual environment.
  • Generates standard project scaffolding including main application entry points and configuration files.
  • Manages environment variables to support secure local development practices.
  • Configures the runtime server for immediate hot-reloading during development cycles.

Example prompts

  • "Set up a new FastAPI project in my current directory with all necessary dependencies installed."
  • "Initialize a local development environment for a FastAPI backend with a virtual environment and requirements file."
  • "Create a fresh FastAPI service structure ready for API endpoint definition and testing."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you have Python 3.8 or higher installed on your machine before invoking this skill, as it relies on modern syntax features. While the skill handles dependency installation, manually verifying critical library versions is recommended for production-grade stability.
