Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to leverage Django REST Framework (DRF) for building API-driven backends. It provides code examples and patterns for creating ViewSets, serializers, filters, permissions, and pagination within a Django project using DRF. The skill demonstrates how to structure these components for efficient and rapid backend development.
When to use it
- When needing to quickly generate boilerplate code for building REST APIs in Django.
- For automating the creation of serializer classes with different functionalities (read-only, create, update).
- To streamline the implementation of filtering capabilities on API endpoints using Django filters.
- When setting up permission controls for API access and resource ownership.
Key capabilities
- ViewSet Pattern: Demonstrates how to define ViewSets for managing resources with common CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations.
- Serializer Patterns: Provides examples of creating different serializer classes (read-only, create, update) for flexible data handling.
- Filtering: Shows how to implement filtering using Django filters to refine API responses based on user criteria.
- Permissions: Includes examples of custom permission classes to control access to resources.
- Pagination: Illustrates the implementation of pagination for managing large datasets returned by APIs.
Example prompts
- "Generate a UserViewSet with email and is_active filters."
- "Create a read-only serializer for the User model, including first name and last name fields."
- "Show me an example of a permission class that checks if a user owns a resource."
Tips & gotchas
- This skill provides code snippets and patterns; it requires familiarity with Django and DRF concepts to effectively utilize.
- The provided examples are illustrative and may need adaptation based on specific project requirements.
- Ensure your Django project is properly configured with DRF installed before using the generated code.
