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 iulspop/aidd-skills at 6f8a5e303d.

    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, iulspop-refactor, helps improve existing code by identifying and applying common refactoring patterns. It can streamline logic, reduce redundancy, and enhance readability of backend codebases. The tool aims to automate parts of the refactoring process, saving developers time and improving overall code quality.

When to use it

  • Cleaning up legacy code: When dealing with older code that's difficult to maintain due to complexity or poor structure.
  • Preparing for new features: Before adding new functionality, refactor existing code to make integration easier and reduce potential conflicts.
  • Improving performance: Identify inefficient code sections and apply optimizations through automated refactoring techniques.
  • Reducing technical debt: Regularly use the skill to address small code quality issues before they accumulate into larger problems.

Key capabilities

  • Automated refactoring pattern application
  • Streamlines logic
  • Reduces redundancy in code
  • Enhances code readability

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this function to remove duplicated code."
  • "Apply common refactoring patterns to improve the efficiency of this module."
  • “Can you simplify this block of code?”

Tips & gotchas

This skill is most effective when applied to well-structured, albeit complex, backend code. It's recommended to review the changes made by the skill before deploying them to production environments.
