Automated safety checks

scanned 28 Sept 2026

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
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 github/awesome-copilot at 6c4d33b9cf.
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 enables AI agents to import and manage infrastructure as code (IaC) configurations, such as Terraform scripts or CloudFormation templates. It allows for parsing, validating, and applying changes to infrastructure definitions in a structured manner.

When to use it

Automating the deployment of cloud resources using existing IaC files
Validating infrastructure configurations before deployment
Generating documentation from IaC code for better team collaboration

Key capabilities

Parsing Terraform and CloudFormation templates
Validating syntax and structure of IaC files
Applying changes to infrastructure based on defined configurations

Example prompts

"Import the Terraform configuration in this directory and validate it."
"Generate a report of all resources defined in this CloudFormation template."
"Apply the latest version of this IaC file to the staging environment."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure that the IaC files are properly formatted and compatible with the target infrastructure provider.
This skill may require access to specific tools or APIs for full functionality, such as Terraform CLI or AWS CloudFormation.
