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 vectorize-io/hindsight at eb021da3b2.

    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 hindsight-docs skill provides access to documentation. It allows AI agents to retrieve and present information from various sources, enabling them to answer questions or complete tasks requiring detailed knowledge. This skill is designed to improve agent understanding and accuracy when dealing with complex topics.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting: An agent can use this skill to access technical documentation for a specific software or hardware issue.
  • Researching a topic: If an agent needs background information on a particular subject, it can leverage the skill to gather relevant details from online resources.
  • Explaining complex concepts: Agents can utilize the skill to find clear explanations and examples when simplifying intricate ideas for users.
  • Learning new procedures: The skill supports agents in understanding step-by-step instructions found in guides or manuals.

Key capabilities

  • Accesses documentation resources
  • Retrieves information from online sources
  • Presents detailed knowledge to the user
  • Supports troubleshooting and research tasks

Example prompts

  • "Can you show me the documentation for installing the XYZ library?"
  • "Explain how to configure network settings according to the official guide."
  • "What are the common error codes described in the software's manual?"

Tips & gotchas

The skill’s effectiveness depends on the availability and quality of online documentation. Ensure that the agent has access to relevant URLs or search terms for optimal results.
