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 jpcaparas/superpowers-laravel at c5198b16cd.

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

1 file, 62 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

The laravel:tdd-with-pest skill enables AI agents to execute Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflows specifically within Laravel applications using the Pest PHP testing framework. It automates the creation of test files, writing assertions, and running the test suite to ensure code correctness before implementation.

When to use it

  • Generating initial unit tests for new controllers or service classes in a Laravel project.
  • Refactoring existing legacy code while maintaining safety through automated verification.
  • Creating comprehensive integration tests for API endpoints using Pest's syntax.
  • Validating business logic rules before writing the actual application code.

Key capabilities

  • Initializes Laravel projects with the Pest testing framework.
  • Generates test files following TDD principles (Red-Green-Refactor).
  • Writes specific assertions to validate expected outcomes.
  • Executes the test suite to confirm pass/fail status immediately.

Example prompts

  • "Create a unit test for the User model using Pest to verify that email addresses are unique."
  • "Write an integration test for the LoginController to ensure invalid credentials return a 401 response."
  • "Generate a TDD workflow to build a feature where users can reset their passwords via email."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your Laravel project has the pestphp/pest-plugin-laravel extension installed before requesting test generation. This skill focuses on backend logic; it does not generate frontend views or database migrations unless explicitly requested as part of the test scenario.
