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 manutej/luxor-claude-marketplace at 1861cc9720.

    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

This skill provides a comprehensive toolkit for developing production-ready GraphQL APIs using graphql-js. It covers all aspects of GraphQL development, from schema design and type systems to resolvers, queries, mutations, subscriptions, authentication, authorization, caching, testing, and deployment strategies. The skill aims to help you build efficient and flexible data access patterns for various client types.

When to use it

  • Building a new API requiring flexible data fetching for web or mobile clients.
  • Replacing existing REST APIs with more efficient data access patterns.
  • Developing APIs for applications with complex, nested data relationships.
  • Creating real-time applications needing subscriptions and live updates.

Key capabilities

  • Schema design and type system definition.
  • Resolver implementation.
  • Support for queries, mutations, and subscriptions.
  • Authentication and authorization within GraphQL APIs.
  • Caching strategies.
  • Testing and deployment of GraphQL servers.
  • Development using Node.js and Express.
  • Strong schema validation for type-safe APIs.
  • API introspection for self-documentation.

Example prompts

  • "Help me design a GraphQL schema for an e-commerce product catalog."
  • "Generate resolvers for the 'products' query in my GraphQL API."
  • "How can I implement authentication and authorization for my GraphQL subscriptions?"

Tips & gotchas

  • GraphQL typically uses POST requests, which might impact HTTP caching.
  • File uploads/downloads require multipart handling, so REST may be more suitable for these tasks.
  • There's a learning curve associated with GraphQL; ensure your team is comfortable with the concepts before adopting it.
