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

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

About this skill
formatter-development
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to automatically format code using Biome's built-in formatter, ensuring consistent style across projects. It handles syntax highlighting and structural adjustments without requiring manual intervention from developers.
When to use it
- Standardizing code style in large repositories with multiple contributors.
- Preparing pull requests by auto-fixing formatting issues before review.
- Integrating into CI/CD pipelines to enforce coding standards automatically.
- Cleaning up legacy codebases during refactoring or migration tasks.
Key capabilities
- Automatic code formatting based on project configuration.
- Consistent style enforcement across different file types.
- Seamless integration with existing development workflows.
- Support for various programming languages and frameworks.
Example prompts
- "Format all JavaScript files in the src directory using Biome's formatter."
- "Run the formatter on the entire project to ensure consistent code style."
- "Apply formatting fixes to the TypeScript files before committing changes."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your project has a valid biome.json configuration file for optimal results. The skill may not handle custom or highly specialized formatting rules without additional configuration setup.
