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 apollographql/skills at 322da824b2.

    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 graphql-operations skill enables AI agents to perform and manage GraphQL operations, such as querying, mutating, and subscribing to data from a GraphQL API. It provides tools for constructing and validating GraphQL requests, making it easier to interact with backend services that expose a GraphQL interface.

When to use it

  • You need to query specific data from a GraphQL API in your application logic.
  • Your AI agent must perform mutations like creating or updating records via a GraphQL endpoint.
  • You are building real-time features using GraphQL subscriptions.
  • You want to validate and format GraphQL operations before sending them to a server.

Key capabilities

  • Query execution against a GraphQL API
  • Mutation support for modifying data
  • Subscription handling for real-time updates
  • Schema validation of GraphQL operations

Example prompts

  • "Query the user with ID 123 from the users endpoint."
  • "Update the status of task #456 to 'completed' using a GraphQL mutation."
  • "Subscribe to new messages in the 'chat' channel via GraphQL."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that your AI agent has access to the correct GraphQL schema for accurate operation building.
  • Be mindful of rate limits and authentication requirements when making frequent or sensitive operations.
