Install target

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 pluginagentmarketplace/custom-plugin-ai-red-teaming at b51e6cbeeb.

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

4 files, 628 lines
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 provides input and output guardrails for AI agents. It helps to constrain the agent's behavior by defining acceptable inputs and outputs, preventing undesirable actions or responses. The skill allows developers to customize these boundaries based on specific application requirements and safety considerations.

When to use it

  • Content Moderation: Ensure an agent generating text doesn’t produce harmful or inappropriate content.
  • Data Security: Prevent agents from accessing or revealing sensitive information through restricted inputs and outputs.
  • Task Boundaries: Limit the scope of an agent's actions, ensuring it stays within defined operational parameters.
  • Controlled Interactions: Manage user interactions with an agent to maintain a predictable and safe conversational flow.

Key capabilities

  • Input validation
  • Output filtering
  • Customizable guardrail rules
  • Behavioral constraints

Example prompts

  • "Set up input guardrails to block requests containing profanity."
  • "Define output filters to prevent the agent from sharing personal information."
  • "Restrict the agent's actions to only include summarizing documents and answering questions about them."

Tips & gotchas

The effectiveness of this skill depends on carefully defining your guardrail rules. Insufficient or overly broad rules can either hinder the agent’s usefulness or fail to prevent undesirable behavior.
