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 megastep/codex-skills at f6c3c49416.

    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 provides expertise in Kotlin, a modern programming language. It can assist with tasks such as generating Kotlin code snippets, explaining existing Kotlin code, and debugging Kotlin applications. The specialist is particularly adept at leveraging Kotlin’s features like coroutines and data classes for efficient backend development.

When to use it

  • Code Generation: Need a quick function or class written in Kotlin? This skill can generate boilerplate or more complex logic.
  • Code Explanation: Struggling to understand a piece of Kotlin code? The specialist can break down the functionality and purpose.
  • Debugging Assistance: Encountering errors in your Kotlin application? Get help identifying and resolving issues.
  • Kotlin Best Practices: Seeking guidance on writing idiomatic and efficient Kotlin code for backend systems?

Key capabilities

  • Kotlin Code Generation
  • Kotlin Code Explanation
  • Kotlin Debugging
  • Backend Development Expertise (coroutines, data classes)

Example prompts

  • "Write a Kotlin function to calculate the factorial of a number."
  • "Explain what this Kotlin code does: data class User(val name: String, val age: Int)"
  • "I'm getting a NullPointerException in my Kotlin backend. Can you help me debug it?"

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes some basic familiarity with Kotlin syntax and concepts. Providing context or specific error messages will significantly improve the quality of responses.
