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

    Only contacts known or declared hosts: api.openai.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.

    api.openai.commodel provider
  • 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

The netlify-functions skill allows AI agents to execute serverless functions hosted on Netlify. This enables them to perform backend tasks like interacting with databases, processing data, or integrating with external APIs without needing a full-fledged server environment. The skill provides a way to trigger and manage these functions programmatically within the agent's workflow.

When to use it

  • Data Processing: When an AI agent needs to perform complex calculations or transformations on data that requires backend processing.
  • API Integration: To interact with external APIs or services that require server-side authentication or logic.
  • Database Interactions: For agents needing to read from or write to a database, such as updating user profiles or managing inventory.
  • Webhook Handling: To process data received through webhooks triggered by other applications or services.

Key capabilities

  • Function execution on Netlify Functions platform
  • Programmatic triggering of serverless functions
  • Integration with backend APIs and databases
  • Handling webhook events

Example prompts

  • "Run the 'process_order' function with order ID 12345."
  • "Execute the 'get_user_data' function for user 'john.doe'."
  • "Trigger the 'send_email' function to notify support about a new issue."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires access and configuration within a Netlify account.
  • Function names and parameters must match those defined in your Netlify Functions deployment.
