Installs fetch a stored snapshot of that commit, so the code can't change after the fact.

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 failed 2 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    SKILL.md has no YAML frontmatter, so it declares nothing machine-readable.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: failed

    Runs code fetched at install time in 1 place.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

    What it found

    • docs/tutorials/GITHUB_ACTIONS.md:260remote script piped into a shell
      curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nektos/act/master/install.sh | sudo bash

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Only contacts known or declared hosts: github.com, raw.githubusercontent.com.

    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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned nirholas/gitpretty at 62da2d4aa4.

    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

gitpretty enhances Git history by automatically adding emojis and formatting commit messages. It transforms simple descriptions into standardized, visually appealing commits using predefined types like "feat" (✨), "fix" (🐛), or "docs" (📝). The tool supports both quick commits with short descriptions and smart commits for more detailed, conventional commit message structures.

When to use it

  • Standardize team commit messages: Enforce a consistent style across all project contributors.
  • Improve readability of Git logs: Make browsing the history easier by visually differentiating commit types.
  • Quickly create formatted commits: Streamline the commit process with automated formatting and emoji insertion.
  • Generate conventional commit messages: Facilitate automation in CI/CD pipelines that rely on structured commit data.

Key capabilities

  • Automatic emoji insertion based on commit message content.
  • Support for quick commits using a simple description string.
  • Smart commit functionality to generate detailed, conventional commit messages (e.g., feat(auth): add user authentication).
  • Predefined commit types with associated emojis (feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, chore, ci).
  • Dry-run mode for previewing formatted commits without actually committing.

Example prompts

  • "Stage all files and commit with the message 'add user dashboard'."
  • "Stage specific files and commit with a fix login bug description."
  • "Create a smart commit adding a new feature to the authentication module."

Tips & gotchas

  • The script requires cloning the gitpretty repository to your home directory or another accessible location.
  • Ensure that the ~/.gitpretty/scripts/emoji-commit.sh and ~/.gitpretty/scripts/smart-commit.sh scripts are executable (e.g., using chmod +x).
