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 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 undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 2 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: apache.org, xml.org.

    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.

  • 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 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 theepan/ai-agent-skills at 30d13529e8.

    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 provides automated Java code review capabilities. It analyzes submitted Java code snippets, identifying potential bugs, style violations, and areas for improvement based on established coding standards. The agent can then provide feedback and suggestions to enhance code quality and maintainability.

When to use it

  • Before merging pull requests: Use the skill to automatically scan code changes before they are integrated into a larger codebase.
  • During code review training: Help junior developers learn best practices by providing automated feedback on their code.
  • Identifying potential security vulnerabilities: The agent can be configured to look for common Java security flaws.
  • Enforcing coding standards: Ensure consistency across a project by automatically checking against defined style guides.

Key capabilities

  • Automated code analysis
  • Bug detection
  • Style violation identification
  • Security vulnerability scanning (configurable)
  • Coding standard enforcement

Example prompts

  • "Review this Java code for potential bugs: [paste code snippet]"
  • "Check this code against Google Java Style Guide: [paste code snippet]"
  • “Can you find any security vulnerabilities in this Java class? [paste code snippet]”

Tips & gotchas

The effectiveness of the review depends on the quality and specificity of the coding standards or style guides provided. Ensure that the agent has access to relevant documentation for optimal results.
