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 wispbit-ai/skills at 8b2c7d0cec.

    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 guide to optimizing GraphQL APIs and adhering to best practices. It offers rules for resolver optimization, query performance, data fetching patterns, and schema design, prioritized by impact. The goal is to facilitate automated refactoring and code generation for improved backend services and API workflows.

When to use it

  • When writing GraphQL schemas, resolvers, or type definitions.
  • During the implementation of data fetching and resolver logic.
  • When reviewing existing GraphQL code for performance issues.
  • To guide refactoring efforts on existing GraphQL APIs.
  • For designing the architecture of a GraphQL server.

Key capabilities

  • Prioritized Rules: Provides rules categorized by priority (Critical, High, Medium) to focus optimization efforts.
  • Resolver Optimization: Guidance on optimizing resolver performance and preventing N+1 issues using DataLoader.
  • Schema Design Best Practices: Recommendations for schema design including identifier stability, structured types, role-based type splitting, and deprecation preferences.
  • Mutation Design Guidelines: Rules for designing mutations around explicit actions, separating input types, and implementing type-safe error handling.
  • Pagination Strategies: Advice on pagination implementation, specifically avoiding default totalCount.
  • Security Considerations: Includes rules to prevent vulnerabilities like NoSQL injection and information leakage.

Example prompts

  • "What are the best practices for schema design in GraphQL?"
  • "How can I optimize query performance in my GraphQL API?"
  • "Give me advice on designing mutations with type-safe error handling."
  • "What is the 'dataloader-n-plus-one' rule and how do I apply it?"

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill prioritizes rules based on impact, so focus on higher priority categories first.
  • Be aware of security considerations when designing your GraphQL API, particularly regarding filtering and data leakage.
  • This skill is focused on best practices for GraphQL, not general backend development or coding assistance.
