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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: failed

    Runs code fetched at install time in 2 places.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

    What it found

    • skills/football-data/SKILL.md:26pip install straight from a URL
      pip install git+https://github.com/machina-sports/sports-skills.git
    • skills/football-data/SKILL.md:218tells the user to run: pip install straight from a URL(in the instructions, not code)
      Solution: Run `pip install sports-skills`. If not on PyPI, install from GitHub: `pip install git+https://github.com/machina-sports/sports-skills.git`

  • 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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned machina-sports/sports-skills at 3be3624236.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

football-data

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to access and process real-time football statistics, match results, and league standings. It provides structured data on player performance, team metrics, and historical game outcomes for automated analysis.

When to use it

  • Generate live match previews by retrieving current form tables and head-to-head records.
  • Analyze player efficiency trends across multiple seasons for scouting or fantasy sports strategies.
  • Create dynamic betting insights based on recent goal-scoring rates and defensive statistics.
  • Automate weekly league summaries with accurate point tallies and top scorer rankings.

Key capabilities

  • Fetches real-time match scores and live event streams.
  • Retrieves comprehensive player stats including goals, assists, and minutes played.
  • Accesses historical season data for trend analysis.
  • Provides league table standings by division or competition.
  • Supports filtering by specific teams, dates, or competitions.

Example prompts

  • "What are the current top 5 scorers in the Premier League this season?"
  • "Analyze Manchester City's defensive performance over the last 10 matches."
  • "Who won the Champions League final in 2023 and what was the match score?"

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has permission to access external sports APIs, as data freshness depends on the underlying provider. Some advanced metrics may require specific league codes or date ranges for accurate retrieval.
