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 jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills at a7be181f58.

    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 generates REST APIs based on provided specifications. It can create API endpoints, define request and response structures, and generate code for handling common HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE). The generated APIs are designed to be functional and ready for integration into backend systems.

When to use it

  • You need a quick prototype of an API endpoint without writing boilerplate code.
  • You want to automate the generation of API documentation based on your specifications.
  • You're building a microservice architecture and require rapid API creation.
  • You have existing data models and want to automatically generate APIs for them.

Key capabilities

  • Generates REST API endpoints
  • Defines request/response structures
  • Supports common HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
  • Creates functional code for handling requests

Example prompts

  • "Generate a REST API endpoint for managing users with fields: id, name, email."
  • "Create an API to retrieve product details based on the product ID."
  • "Build a simple API that allows creating new blog posts with title and content."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the generated API depends heavily on the clarity and completeness of the provided specifications. Ensure your input is well-defined for optimal results.
