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 thedivergentai/gd-agentic-skills at 4c4d0ff5c4.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides expert guidance on using Godot's Animation Trees, which are essential for creating complex and dynamic character animations in your games. It focuses on best practices for blending animations and managing state machines within Godot’s animation system. The skill helps avoid common pitfalls that can lead to jittery or broken animations and ensures efficient performance.

When to use it

  • You're struggling with animation blending issues in Godot.
  • Your character animations are jittering or behaving unexpectedly.
  • You need help optimizing the performance of your Animation Trees.
  • You want to understand how to correctly manage state transitions within an AnimationTree.
  • You’re implementing complex animation sequences like combo chains or death-to-respawn scenarios.

Key capabilities

  • Provides guidance on avoiding direct play() calls on AnimationPlayer nodes when using AnimationTree.
  • Highlights the importance of setting active = true for AnimationTrees.
  • Emphasizes the use of relative paths when accessing animation tree parameters.
  • Offers advice on when to use different blend types (BlendSpace1D, Blend2, BlendSpace2D).
  • Covers best practices for updating animation parameters efficiently and handling asynchronous updates.

Example prompts

  • "How do I prevent jitter when blending animations in Godot's AnimationTree?"
  • "What’s the correct way to transition between character states using an AnimationTree?"
  • “Why is my BlendSpace2D not working as expected, and what should I use instead?”

Tips & gotchas

  • Avoid direct play() calls: Always control animations through the AnimationTree's parameters.
  • Remember to activate: Ensure your AnimationTree node has its active property set to true.
  • Parameter paths: Use relative paths for parameter access to maintain compatibility.
