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 near/agent-skills at 378a55c6bf.

    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

The near-api-js library enables AI agents to interact directly with the NEAR Protocol blockchain. It provides a JavaScript interface for managing accounts, signing transactions, and querying state without requiring complex low-level configuration. This tool is essential for building decentralized applications that operate on NEAR's infrastructure.

When to use it

  • Deploying smart contracts or interacting with existing ones on the NEAR network.
  • Managing account keys, creating new accounts, or transferring assets programmatically.
  • Querying blockchain state to retrieve data stored in NEAR contracts.
  • Building AI agents that require native integration with Web3 wallets and dApps.

Key capabilities

  • Account management and key generation for NEAR users.
  • Transaction signing and broadcasting directly from the agent.
  • State access to read contract data and storage values.
  • Integration with NEAR's JavaScript runtime environment.

Example prompts

  • "Create a new NEAR account using near-api-js and fund it with testnet tokens."
  • "Query the current balance of a specific NEAR wallet address via the API."
  • "Sign a transaction to transfer 100 NEAR from my agent's account to another user."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you are using the correct network configuration (e.g., testnet vs. mainnet) before executing any transactions, as mistakes can result in lost funds. Prerequisites include having a valid NEAR node connection and proper API keys or access credentials configured within your agent environment.
