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
The go-control-flow skill enables AI agents to manage execution logic within Go applications, handling branching and iteration structures effectively. It allows agents to write code that responds dynamically to runtime conditions and loops through data sequences as required by the task.
When to use it
- Implementing conditional logic to handle different user inputs or error states in a Go service.
- Iterating over arrays, slices, or maps to process collections of data without manual indexing.
- Creating retry mechanisms that loop until an API call succeeds or a maximum attempt limit is reached.
- Structuring complex business workflows where specific steps must only execute if prior conditions are met.
Key capabilities
- Defining
if,else, andswitchstatements for decision-making paths. - Utilizing
forloops to repeat blocks of code based on counts, conditions, or range iterations. - Managing
breakandcontinuestatements to alter loop execution flow dynamically.
Example prompts
- "Write a Go function that iterates through a list of user IDs and logs an error for any ID not found in the database."
- "Create a control flow structure that retries a network request three times before returning a timeout error."
- "Generate code that switches on a status code variable to return specific error messages for 404, 500, and other HTTP errors."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent understands Go's specific syntax for loops (e.g., the range keyword) and switch statements to avoid generating invalid code. Be explicit about loop termination conditions to prevent infinite execution cycles in production environments.
