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 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 kazukinagata/shinkoku at 607574d5e5.

    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

The gather skill enables AI agents to discover and install other skills within the TrustedSkills registry. It acts as a foundational utility, allowing agents to dynamically expand their functional capabilities by fetching available tools from the repository.

When to use it

  • Initial Setup: Configure an agent's environment before deploying complex workflows that require multiple specialized tools.
  • Dynamic Expansion: Allow an agent to self-update its toolkit when new skills are published to the registry.
  • Capability Discovery: Query the registry to list available options for a specific task domain (e.g., data analysis or web browsing).
  • Dependency Resolution: Ensure all necessary sub-skills are present before executing a multi-step orchestration plan.

Key capabilities

  • Scans the TrustedSkills repository for registered tools.
  • Retrieves metadata and descriptions of available skills.
  • Facilitates the installation process for selected skills into the agent's context.

Example prompts

  • "Find all data processing skills available in the registry and list their names."
  • "Install the 'web_search' skill so I can perform live lookups later."
  • "Gather a list of communication tools compatible with my current agent configuration."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure the AI agent has network access to reach the TrustedSkills registry endpoint, as discovery requires external connectivity. Be aware that installing a skill may take time depending on the agent's execution environment and the size of the package being fetched.
