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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No credential access: failed

    Touches credential material in 1 place.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

    What it found

    • devops-skills-plugin/skills/makefile-generator/docs/security-guide.md:203.netrc credentials
      @curl --netrc-file ~/.netrc https://api.example.com

  • 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 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 akin-ozer/cc-devops-skills at 276af751e6.

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

About this skill

What it does

The makefile-generator skill automatically creates Makefile files based on project requirements. It simplifies build processes by generating standard targets like all, clean, and others, reducing manual configuration effort for developers. This allows users to quickly establish a repeatable build environment without needing extensive knowledge of Makefile syntax.

When to use it

  • New Projects: Quickly set up a basic build system when starting a new software project.
  • Simplifying Builds: Replace complex or outdated Makefiles with a more maintainable and standardized structure.
  • Automating Repetitive Tasks: Generate Makefiles for projects with consistent build needs, saving time and reducing errors.
  • Standardizing Development Environments: Ensure all developers on a team are using the same build process by automatically generating compliant Makefiles.

Key capabilities

  • Generates standard Makefile targets (e.g., all, clean).
  • Automates Makefile creation based on project needs.
  • Simplifies build system configuration.
  • Reduces manual effort in setting up repeatable builds.

Example prompts

  • "Create a Makefile for a C++ project with source files in 'src' and header files in 'include'."
  • "Generate a Makefile that compiles 'main.c' and 'utils.c' into an executable named 'myprogram'."
  • “Make a makefile for a python project using poetry”

Tips & gotchas

The skill assumes basic familiarity with software development concepts like source files, header files, and executables. While it simplifies the process, understanding the generated Makefile is still recommended for customization or troubleshooting.
