Automated safety checks

scanned 28 Sept 2026

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-schema skill enables AI agents to work with GraphQL schemas, allowing them to define, validate, and manipulate data structures used in GraphQL APIs. It supports schema introspection, query validation, and type system operations for building robust backend services.

When to use it

When designing or modifying a GraphQL API's structure
To validate queries against a defined schema before execution
For generating documentation based on the schema definition
When integrating with tools that require schema-aware processing

Key capabilities

Schema validation and introspection
Query parsing and validation
Type system manipulation and generation
Integration with backend GraphQL services

Example prompts

"Validate this GraphQL query against the provided schema."
"Generate a GraphQL schema from this set of data models."
"Check if this mutation is supported by the current schema."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure that the schema definition is accurate and up-to-date for reliable validation.
Some advanced features may require additional configuration or plugins depending on the backend implementation.
