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 julianromli/opencode-template at 37ceab2d64.

    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 helps improve existing codebases by applying refactoring techniques. It can identify areas of duplication, simplify complex logic, and enhance overall code readability. The goal is to produce cleaner, more maintainable code while preserving functionality.

When to use it

  • Legacy Code: Refactor older code that's difficult to understand or modify.
  • Code Duplication: Identify and eliminate redundant blocks of code within a project.
  • Complex Functions/Methods: Simplify overly long or complicated functions into smaller, more manageable units.
  • Improving Readability: Enhance the clarity and structure of existing code for better collaboration and maintainability.

Key capabilities

  • Code refactoring
  • Duplication detection
  • Simplification of complex logic
  • Improved code readability

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this function to improve its readability: [paste code]"
  • "Find and eliminate duplicate code blocks in this file: [file path]"
  • "Simplify this method, it's too long and hard to follow: [paste code]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires access to the codebase being refactored. It is best used on smaller sections of code at a time for easier review and debugging.
