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 aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts at 3f5182cfd7.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to configure and manage load balancers, ensuring high availability and optimal traffic distribution across backend servers. It handles the setup of routing rules, health checks, and scaling policies to maintain system resilience under varying workloads.

When to use it

  • Deploying new microservices that require automatic failover capabilities.
  • Optimizing network performance by distributing incoming requests evenly among multiple instances.
  • Setting up infrastructure for high-traffic applications needing zero-downtime deployments.
  • Configuring SSL termination and security policies at the edge of your application layer.

Key capabilities

  • Automated configuration of load balancing algorithms (e.g., round-robin, least connections).
  • Real-time health monitoring and automatic removal of unhealthy endpoints.
  • Dynamic scaling adjustments based on current traffic patterns.
  • Management of SSL certificates and secure connection termination.
  • Customizable routing rules for specific application paths or protocols.

Example prompts

  • "Set up a new load balancer to distribute traffic across three web servers with health checks every 30 seconds."
  • "Configure the load balancer to automatically scale out when CPU usage exceeds 75%."
  • "Update the routing rules to direct all HTTPS traffic through the primary SSL endpoint and enable automatic failover."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your backend servers are pre-configured with necessary security groups and network policies before initiating the load balancer setup. Always verify health check endpoints are accessible from the load balancer's source IP range to prevent false-positive failures.
