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 g1joshi/agent-skills at 6a74cf03a8.

    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 enables real-time, bidirectional communication between an AI agent and other applications or services. It facilitates persistent connections, allowing for immediate data transfer and updates without the overhead of repeated requests. This is particularly useful for scenarios requiring live data streams or interactive experiences.

When to use it

  • Live Chatbots: Powering chatbots that require instant responses and continuous conversation flow.
  • Real-time dashboards: Displaying dynamically updated information from backend systems.
  • Multiplayer games: Facilitating communication between players in a game environment.
  • IoT device monitoring: Receiving and processing data streams from connected devices in real time.

Key capabilities

  • Persistent connections
  • Bidirectional communication
  • Real-time data transfer
  • Immediate updates

Example prompts

  • "Connect to the chat server at ws://example.com/chat."
  • "Send a message 'Hello' to all connected clients."
  • "Listen for incoming messages on port 8080 and process them."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires familiarity with WebSocket protocols and potentially backend infrastructure to handle connections and data flow. Ensure the target service or application supports WebSockets before attempting integration.
