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 grandcamel/gitlab-assistant-skills at bdb2745983.

    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

The gitlab-file skill allows an AI agent to retrieve and process files directly from a GitLab repository. It can fetch specific file contents, download attachments, or extract information contained within files stored in your GitLab projects. This streamlines workflows by eliminating manual downloads and parsing.

When to use it

  • Automated Reporting: Generate reports based on data stored in configuration files (e.g., .gitlab-ci.yml) within a repository.
  • Code Review Assistance: Retrieve specific code snippets from a GitLab repository for review or analysis.
  • Documentation Retrieval: Access and display documentation files (like READMEs) directly to users.
  • Attachment Handling: Automatically download and process attachments linked in issues or merge requests.

Key capabilities

  • File retrieval by path within a GitLab project.
  • Download of file contents.
  • Support for various file types.
  • Integration with GitLab repositories.

Example prompts

  • "Get the content of config/settings.yml from my 'my-project' repository."
  • "Download the attached log file from this merge request: [merge request URL]"
  • “Show me the contents of the README in the ‘docs’ folder.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires authentication with a GitLab personal access token. Ensure the token has sufficient permissions to access the desired files and repositories.
