Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: failed

    Runs code fetched at install time in 1 place.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

    What it found

    • plugins/culture-index/skills/interpreting-culture-index/SKILL.md:130tells the user to run: remote script piped into a shell(in the instructions, not code)
      **If uv is not installed:** Stop and instruct user to install it (`brew install uv` or `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`). Do NOT fall back to …

  • 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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned trailofbits/skills at 82fe822625.

    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 allows AI agents to interpret and understand the Culture Index, a framework for assessing organizational culture. It can analyze text descriptions of workplaces or teams and provide insights into their cultural characteristics based on the index's dimensions. The agent can identify potential strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement within an organization’s culture.

When to use it

  • Analyzing employee feedback surveys to understand underlying cultural issues.
  • Evaluating company descriptions on job boards to assess fit with a candidate's preferred work environment.
  • Comparing the cultures of different teams within a larger organization.
  • Generating reports summarizing an organization’s culture based on provided documentation.

Key capabilities

  • Culture Index assessment
  • Text analysis
  • Organizational insights
  • Report generation

Example prompts

  • "Analyze this company description and tell me what the Culture Index would say about their work environment: [Company Description]"
  • “Based on these employee survey responses, how does this team score on the Culture Index?”
  • "Summarize the cultural strengths and weaknesses of this organization based on its mission statement."

Tips & gotchas

The accuracy of the assessment depends heavily on the quality and detail of the input text. Providing comprehensive descriptions or representative samples will yield more reliable results.
