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 emerson1337/skills-for-agents at a81bb75cc3.

    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 and best practices for developing React Native applications using Expo. It helps ensure code quality, performance, and maintainability by offering advice on project structure, component design, and common pitfalls to avoid when building mobile apps with these technologies. The skill focuses on leveraging the strengths of both React Native and Expo's managed workflow.

When to use it

  • You are starting a new React Native project using Expo and want to follow established best practices from the outset.
  • An existing React Native/Expo codebase needs refactoring or optimization for improved performance or maintainability.
  • You’re encountering common issues in your React Native/Expo development workflow and need expert advice on how to resolve them.
  • Your team wants to standardize its approach to building React Native applications with Expo.

Key capabilities

  • Project structure recommendations
  • Component design guidance
  • Performance optimization strategies
  • Common pitfall avoidance techniques
  • Best practices for leveraging the Expo managed workflow

Example prompts

  • "What is the recommended folder structure for a new Expo project?"
  • "How can I optimize performance in my React Native app built with Expo?"
  • "I'm getting errors related to native modules. What are some common causes and solutions?"
  • “Suggest best practices for managing state within an Expo application.”

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes a basic understanding of React, React Native, and Expo concepts. While it provides guidance on best practices, familiarity with the underlying technologies is beneficial to fully understand and apply the recommendations.
