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 netlify/context-and-tools at 00abfc7a55.

    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 allows AI agents to execute Netlify Edge Functions. These functions run on Netlify's edge network, providing low latency and improved performance for tasks like A/B testing, image optimization, or authentication checks. They are serverless functions that can be triggered by various events within the Netlify ecosystem.

When to use it

  • A/B Testing: Dynamically serve different content variations based on user attributes or experiment configurations.
  • Image Optimization: Resize and optimize images on-the-fly, reducing bandwidth usage and improving page load times.
  • Authentication Checks: Verify user credentials before granting access to protected resources.
  • Dynamic Redirects: Implement complex redirect logic based on request headers or other factors.

Key capabilities

  • Execute serverless functions at the edge network.
  • Triggered by various Netlify events.
  • Low latency execution for improved performance.
  • Suitable for A/B testing, image optimization, and authentication.

Example prompts

  • "Run the 'optimize-image' Edge Function on this URL."
  • "Execute the 'authentication-check' function with user ID 12345."
  • "Trigger the 'redirect-logic' function based on the request headers."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a Netlify account and properly configured Edge Functions.
  • Ensure your Edge Function code is optimized for performance, as execution time is limited.
