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 wesleysmits/agent-skills at 10274ee62f.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill automatically generates TypeScript types from API specifications. It analyzes an OpenAPI or Swagger definition and produces corresponding .ts files containing interfaces representing the API's endpoints, request bodies, and response schemas. This significantly reduces manual type creation and improves code maintainability when working with APIs.

When to use it

  • When integrating a new backend API into a TypeScript project.
  • To automate the generation of types for existing APIs, reducing repetitive work.
  • For teams wanting to enforce strong typing across their codebase when interacting with external services.
  • During API development and refactoring to keep type definitions synchronized with API changes.

Key capabilities

  • Supports OpenAPI/Swagger specifications.
  • Generates TypeScript interfaces for endpoints.
  • Creates types for request bodies and response schemas.
  • Automated code generation from API definition files.

Example prompts

  • "Generate TypeScript types from this OpenAPI spec: [paste OpenAPI specification here]"
  • "Create a user.ts file with types based on the following Swagger definition."
  • "Can you generate interfaces for all endpoints defined in this API?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your OpenAPI/Swagger specification is valid and complete for accurate type generation.
  • The generated types may require minor adjustments depending on specific project needs or coding style preferences.
