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 affaan-m/everything-claude-code at d3b8a3e908.

    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 golang-testing skill enables AI agents to write, execute, and analyze unit tests for Go (Golang) applications. It supports creating test functions using Go's standard testing package, asserting expected outcomes, and running tests with tools like go test. This skill is particularly useful for ensuring code correctness and maintaining high-quality backend services.

When to use it

  • You need to verify the functionality of a new Go function before deployment.
  • You're refactoring existing Go code and want to ensure no regressions occur.
  • Your team follows Test-Driven Development (TDD) practices and requires automated testing support.
  • You are debugging an issue in a Go application and need targeted test cases.

Key capabilities

  • Writing unit tests using the testing package.
  • Generating mock data for testing functions with dependencies.
  • Running and interpreting test results, including failures and coverage reports.
  • Supporting table-driven tests for multiple input/output scenarios.

Example prompts

  • "Write a unit test for this Go function that checks if a string is a palindrome."
  • "Generate a test suite for the CalculateSum function in my math package."
  • "Run all tests in the users directory and report coverage."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your Go environment is properly set up with go test available.
  • Some complex testing scenarios may require external libraries or mocking frameworks not included by default.
