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 microsoft/agent-skills at ce7edea908.

    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 access to the Microsoft Azure Web PubSub Service through Python. It enables agents to send and receive messages in real-time, facilitating features like live chat applications, collaborative editing tools, and IoT device communication. The service offers reliable messaging with low latency over WebSocket, gRPC, and HTTP connections.

When to use it

  • Real-time Chatbots: Integrate a chatbot that can communicate with users in real-time using Web PubSub's persistent connections.
  • Collaborative Editing: Build applications where multiple users need to simultaneously edit documents or data.
  • IoT Data Streaming: Receive and process data streams from IoT devices connected to Azure.
  • Live Event Notifications: Send push notifications to users about live events, such as game updates or breaking news.

Key capabilities

  • Connects to Azure Web PubSub Service using Python.
  • Supports WebSocket, gRPC, and HTTP connections.
  • Provides real-time messaging functionality.
  • Offers low latency communication.

Example prompts

  • "Send a message to all connected users in the 'mygroup' group."
  • "Get the list of currently connected users."
  • "Publish a system message to all clients."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires an active Azure subscription and Web PubSub resource.
  • Authentication is required to access the service; ensure appropriate credentials are provided.
