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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows AI agents to interact with and utilize Flask API endpoints. It provides the ability to send requests (GET, POST, etc.) to these APIs and process the responses received. This enables integration with external services and data sources exposed through a standard web API interface.
When to use it
- Data Retrieval: Fetching real-time stock prices from a financial API.
- Automated Tasks: Triggering actions in other systems, such as sending emails via an SMTP server API.
- Content Generation: Requesting content or data from a content management system (CMS) API to populate a document.
- System Integration: Connecting with third-party services like payment gateways or CRM platforms through their APIs.
Key capabilities
- Sending HTTP requests (GET, POST, etc.)
- Processing JSON responses
- Handling authentication for API access
Example prompts
- "Send a GET request to
https://example.com/api/dataand tell me the value of the 'status' field." - "Post this data
{ "name": "John Doe", "email": "[email protected]" }tohttps://example.com/api/users." - “Retrieve weather information from the API at
https://weatherapi.com/current?location=London.”
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure the AI agent has access to any necessary authentication credentials (API keys, tokens) required by the target Flask API.
- Be mindful of rate limits imposed by the API; excessive requests may lead to temporary blocking.
