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 aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts at 3f5182cfd7.

    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 performs gap analysis, a systematic comparison of an organization's current capabilities with its desired future state. It identifies discrepancies and reveals what changes are needed and what investments are required to bridge those gaps. The tool utilizes predefined categories such as Business Capability, Process, Technology, Skills, Data, People/Culture, Organization, and Metrics to structure the analysis.

When to use it

This skill is useful in a variety of scenarios including:

  • Strategic planning and goal setting
  • Technology modernization assessment
  • Process improvement initiatives
  • Skills and training planning
  • System evaluation and selection
  • Organizational change planning
  • Capability building programs

Key capabilities

  • Identifies gaps between current state and future state.
  • Categorizes gaps across areas like Business Capability, Process, Technology, Skills, Data, People/Culture, Organization, and Metrics.
  • Provides a framework for gap identification.
  • Offers templates for gap analysis and closure planning.

Example prompts

  • "Perform a gap analysis comparing our current marketing processes with industry best practices."
  • "Analyze the gaps between our team's current skills and the skills needed to implement this new technology."
  • "Conduct a gap analysis of our data infrastructure, considering future reporting needs."

Tips & gotchas

  • A clearly defined future state is essential for effective gap identification.
  • Include all relevant capability areas in your assessment.
  • The full implementation details are available in the reference guides.
