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 rightnow-ai/openfang at acf2587e46.

    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 allows AI agents to interact with and manage Linux networking configurations. It can perform tasks such as checking network interfaces, configuring IP addresses, and troubleshooting connectivity issues using standard command-line tools. The agent can interpret user requests related to network settings and translate them into appropriate commands for execution on a Linux system.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting Network Issues: When an application is unable to connect to the internet or another server, this skill can help diagnose problems like incorrect IP addresses or DNS configuration.
  • Automating Server Setup: During initial server provisioning, this skill can automate the process of configuring network interfaces and assigning static IPs.
  • Scripting Network Changes: When needing to apply consistent network configurations across multiple servers, this skill can be integrated into scripts for automated deployment.
  • Remote System Administration: When managing a remote Linux system through an AI agent interface, this skill provides the necessary tools for basic networking tasks.

Key capabilities

  • Interface status checking (e.g., ip addr show)
  • IP address configuration (ip addr add, ip route add)
  • DNS server management
  • Network troubleshooting commands (e.g., ping, traceroute)

Example prompts

  • "Show me the IP addresses configured on eth0."
  • "Set a static IP of 192.168.1.10 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 on interface wlan0."
  • “Ping google.com and tell me if it’s reachable.”

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires access to a Linux environment (e.g., a server or virtual machine) with appropriate permissions to modify network configurations. Incorrect commands can disrupt network connectivity, so careful validation is recommended.
