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 rileyhilliard/claude-essentials at 3a67a01d33.

    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 manage databases, including creating tables, inserting data, and querying information. It facilitates structured data storage and retrieval for various applications. The agent can execute SQL commands to interact with the database and provide results in a readable format.

When to use it

  • You need to store application data persistently (e.g., user profiles, product catalogs).
  • You want to query existing data to generate reports or insights.
  • You're building an application that requires structured data management.
  • You need to automate database maintenance tasks like backups or schema updates.

Key capabilities

  • SQL execution
  • Table creation
  • Data insertion
  • Data querying

Example prompts

  • "Create a table named 'customers' with columns for id, name, and email."
  • "Insert the customer John Doe with email [email protected] into the customers table."
  • "Show me all customers from the customers table."

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires access to a database instance and appropriate credentials to function correctly. Be mindful of SQL injection vulnerabilities when constructing queries based on user input.
