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 thebushidocollective/han at 19caa51d5f.

    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 automatically resolve, fetch, and manage Java dependencies defined in Maven projects. It ensures build consistency by handling version conflicts and transitive dependencies within the pom.xml configuration.

When to use it

  • Automating dependency resolution for new Java microservices built with Spring Boot.
  • Resolving complex version conflicts between libraries in large enterprise codebases.
  • Ensuring reproducible builds by strictly enforcing declared Maven coordinates.
  • Integrating legacy Java modules into modern CI/CD pipelines without manual artifact management.

Key capabilities

  • Parses pom.xml files to identify required artifacts and scopes.
  • Resolves transitive dependencies across the Maven Central Repository.
  • Manages dependency exclusions and overrides for specific versions.
  • Generates accurate dependency trees for audit and debugging purposes.

Example prompts

  • "Analyze my project's pom.xml and list all direct and transitive dependencies currently in use."
  • "Update the Maven configuration to exclude version 2.0 of the Jackson library and force version 3.1 instead."
  • "Generate a complete dependency tree report for this Java application to identify unused libraries."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has network access to public repositories like Maven Central, as it cannot resolve offline-only artifacts without local cache configuration. Always verify generated pom.xml changes against security advisories before committing updates to production environments.
