Automated safety checks
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
Only contacts known or declared hosts: github.com.
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.
Hosts contacted
github.comsource hostNo 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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides guidance and code examples for implementing common Node.js backend patterns. It helps developers structure applications using techniques like dependency injection, modular design, and asynchronous task management. The goal is to improve maintainability, testability, and scalability of Node.js backends.
When to use it
- When designing a new Node.js API or microservice.
- Refactoring an existing Node.js application for better organization.
- Learning best practices for building robust backend systems in Node.js.
- Troubleshooting performance issues related to asynchronous operations.
Key capabilities
- Dependency Injection
- Modular Design
- Asynchronous Task Management
- Code Examples
Example prompts
- "Show me an example of dependency injection in a Node.js application."
- "How can I structure my Node.js project into modules?"
- "What's the best way to handle asynchronous tasks in Node.js?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill assumes basic familiarity with Node.js and JavaScript syntax. The patterns presented are generally applicable, but may require adaptation based on specific project requirements.
