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 inference-sh/skills at c2d5678f14.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to generate visual designs specifically tailored for book covers. It leverages generative capabilities to create unique artwork based on textual descriptions, themes, and stylistic preferences provided by the user.

When to use it

  • Creating initial visual concepts for self-published novels or non-fiction books.
  • Generating cover art variations to test different aesthetic directions before finalizing a design.
  • Producing placeholder imagery for book proposals or marketing materials during the early writing phase.

Key capabilities

  • Generates custom book cover artwork from text prompts.
  • Adapts visual styles to match specific genre requirements (e.g., fantasy, sci-fi, romance).
  • Creates original illustrations without requiring manual image editing software.

Example prompts

  • "Design a minimalist book cover for a cyberpunk thriller set in Neo-Tokyo."
  • "Create a whimsical illustration for a children's book about a dragon who loves baking."
  • "Generate a dramatic, high-contrast cover for a historical mystery novel featuring Victorian London."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your text prompts are detailed regarding mood, color palette, and composition to achieve the desired artistic result. While this skill generates the visual asset, it may not automatically handle complex layout requirements like typography or spine dimensions needed for print production.
