Automated safety checks

scanned 28 Sept 2026

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 zhanghandong/rust-skills at 5c40d3ad78.
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 effectively detect, log, and recover from errors in backend systems. It includes mechanisms for graceful degradation, error categorization, and automated retries when appropriate.

When to use it

When building resilient backend services that must handle unexpected failures gracefully
During system maintenance or updates where temporary errors are likely
In distributed systems where network or service dependencies may fail intermittently

Key capabilities

Automatic detection of runtime errors
Categorization of errors by severity and type
Logging and alerting for critical issues
Retry logic for transient failures
Graceful fallback mechanisms

Example prompts

"Handle a database connection failure in the user authentication service"
"Log all HTTP 500 errors with timestamps and stack traces"
"Implement retry logic for failed API calls to external services"

Tips & gotchas

Ensure proper error classification to avoid unnecessary retries on permanent failures.
Use structured logging formats (e.g., JSON) for easier debugging and monitoring.
