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 googlecloudplatform/devrel-demos at 7040b3c690.

    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 go-test-expert skill analyzes Go code and provides detailed test reports. It can identify potential bugs, suggest improvements to existing tests, and generate new test cases based on the provided code. This skill is particularly useful for ensuring code quality and reliability in Go projects.

When to use it

  • Debugging: When encountering unexpected behavior in a Go application, use this skill to analyze relevant code sections and identify potential issues through test reports.
  • Test Coverage Analysis: Determine the extent of your existing tests and receive recommendations for improving coverage.
  • Code Review: Integrate into code review workflows to automatically assess test quality and suggest improvements before merging changes.
  • New Feature Development: Generate initial test cases when developing new features in Go, ensuring a solid foundation for future development.

Key capabilities

  • Analyzes Go code for potential bugs.
  • Provides detailed test reports.
  • Suggests improvements to existing tests.
  • Generates new test cases.

Example prompts

  • "Analyze this Go code and provide a test report: [paste Go code here]"
  • "What are the gaps in my test coverage for this function? [paste Go function here]"
  • "Generate some unit tests for this struct: [paste Go struct definition here]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires access to the Go code being analyzed. Ensure that the AI agent has appropriate permissions and context to effectively utilize the go-test-expert skill.
