Automated safety checks

scanned 1 Oct 2026

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
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 neversight/skills_feed at 58220bbac4.
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 Python typing patterns to improve code clarity and maintainability. It allows developers to define type hints for function arguments, return values, and variables, enabling static analysis tools like MyPy to catch potential errors early on. The skill aims to enforce stricter type checking within Python projects.

When to use it

When refactoring existing Python codebases to improve type safety.
During the development of new Python libraries or modules where clear type contracts are essential.
To integrate with static analysis tools like MyPy for enhanced error detection.
For teams adopting stricter coding standards and embracing gradual typing in Python projects.

Key capabilities

Provides a library of reusable type hints.
Supports defining custom type aliases.
Facilitates the creation of more robust and maintainable code.

Example prompts

"Generate a type hint for a function that takes a list of integers and returns a float."
"Create a type alias for a dictionary mapping strings to user objects."
“Show me how to use typing.Protocol to define a structural subtyping constraint.”

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a basic understanding of Python's typing system. Ensure your project is configured to utilize static analysis tools like MyPy for full benefit.
