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 wondelai/skills at c172996495.

    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

mom-test

What it does

The mom-test skill is a utility designed to evaluate AI agent responses against the rigorous standards of a critical parent. It provides immediate feedback on tone, logic, and helpfulness, simulating the scrutiny often applied to ensure quality and safety in outputs.

When to use it

  • Before deploying an agent to sensitive environments where tone and reliability are paramount.
  • To identify hallucinations or logical gaps in complex reasoning tasks.
  • During iterative development to refine conversational nuances and adherence to constraints.
  • When you need a quick, informal audit of an agent's performance without formal testing frameworks.

Key capabilities

  • Simulates critical feedback loops typical of parental oversight.
  • Assesses response quality based on tone, clarity, and accuracy.
  • Highlights areas where the agent may be too verbose, dismissive, or incorrect.

Example prompts

  • "Run a mom-test on this draft email to my boss to check if it sounds professional and confident."
  • "Act as a strict parent and critique this AI's explanation of quantum physics for clarity and accuracy."
  • "Perform a mom-test on the following code snippet to ensure it is bug-free and well-commented before I share it."

Tips & gotchas

This skill relies on qualitative judgment rather than automated metrics, so results are subjective and depend on the specific context provided. It is best used as a supplementary check alongside formal testing tools for critical applications.
