Install target

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 nickcrew/claude-ctx-plugin at bb47af79ad.

    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 access to a collection of asynchronous Python code patterns. It allows AI agents to leverage these patterns for writing efficient and concurrent Python programs, particularly useful in scenarios involving I/O bound operations or parallel processing. The skill offers reusable components and examples to simplify the development of asynchronous applications.

When to use it

  • Building web servers: Implement non-blocking HTTP endpoints using asyncio and related patterns for improved responsiveness.
  • Data ingestion pipelines: Process large datasets concurrently by utilizing asynchronous I/O operations to read from multiple sources simultaneously.
  • Real-time applications: Develop chat servers or other real-time systems that require handling many concurrent connections efficiently.
  • API integrations: Make numerous API calls in parallel without blocking the main thread, speeding up data retrieval.

Key capabilities

  • Asynchronous function definitions using async and await.
  • Event loop management with asyncio.
  • Coroutines for concurrent execution.
  • Reusable asynchronous utility functions.

Example prompts

  • "Show me an example of how to use asyncio to fetch data from multiple URLs concurrently."
  • "Generate a coroutine that reads lines from a file asynchronously."
  • "How can I implement a simple asynchronous web server using Python?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires familiarity with basic Python syntax and programming concepts.
  • Understanding of asynchronous programming principles is beneficial to effectively utilize the patterns provided by this skill.
