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 laurigates/claude-plugins at 45d1d7dcf6.

    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 enables AI agents to perform system health checks, verifying that connected services are operational and responding correctly. It provides a mechanism to monitor infrastructure status directly within the agent's workflow.

When to use it

  • Before initiating critical data processing tasks to ensure backend availability.
  • During automated deployment pipelines to validate service recovery after updates.
  • In monitoring dashboards to trigger alerts when specific endpoints fail.
  • When debugging connectivity issues between an AI agent and external APIs.

Key capabilities

  • Executes health check requests against configured targets.
  • Reports the operational status of monitored services.
  • Integrates with the laurigates/claude-plugins ecosystem for Claude agents.

Example prompts

  • "Run a health check on our primary database connection before starting the migration."
  • "Check if the payment gateway API is responding to requests."
  • "Perform a system health check and summarize any failed endpoints."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure the AI agent has explicit permissions to access the target services being checked. This skill is specific to the laurigates/claude-plugins environment and may not function with other agent frameworks without modification.
