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 denolfe/dotfiles at 875c5b8be0.

    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 format text using Markdown syntax. It can convert plain text into formatted documents including headings, lists, bolded and italicized text, links, and code blocks. The agent will interpret Markdown instructions and render them appropriately for display or further processing.

When to use it

  • Generating documentation: Quickly create structured documentation from notes or drafts.
  • Formatting meeting minutes: Transform raw meeting transcripts into readable summaries with headings and lists.
  • Creating social media posts: Format text with bolding, links, and line breaks for better engagement.
  • Preparing reports: Structure data and findings in a clear and organized report using Markdown elements.

Key capabilities

  • Heading generation (H1-H6)
  • List creation (ordered and unordered)
  • Bold and italic text formatting
  • Link insertion
  • Code block rendering

Example prompts

  • "Format the following text as a markdown document with a title 'Project Update' and include a bulleted list of action items."
  • "Convert this plain text into Markdown, including bolding for key terms."
  • "Create a Markdown table summarizing these data points."

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires clear instructions on the desired formatting. Providing examples of expected output can improve accuracy and ensure the generated Markdown meets your needs.
