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 davidcastagnetoa/skills at bd906f22af.

    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 node_exporter skill provides a way to expose system metrics from a server or machine. It collects data such as CPU usage, memory utilization, disk I/O, and network statistics. This information can then be scraped by monitoring systems like Prometheus for analysis and visualization.

When to use it

  • Monitoring Server Health: Track resource consumption on a development or production server to identify bottlenecks and optimize performance.
  • Capacity Planning: Gather data about disk space usage and memory utilization to predict when hardware upgrades are needed.
  • Troubleshooting Performance Issues: Collect metrics during periods of high load to pinpoint the root cause of slowdowns.
  • Automated Alerting: Integrate with alerting systems based on collected metrics, such as CPU exceeding a certain threshold.

Key capabilities

  • Exposes system metrics via HTTP endpoints.
  • Supports various metric types (CPU, memory, disk, network).
  • Collects hardware and OS statistics.
  • Compatible with Prometheus monitoring tools.

Example prompts

  • "Can you tell me the current CPU usage of this server?"
  • "What is the available memory on the machine?"
  • "Show me a graph of disk I/O over the last hour."

Tips & gotchas

The node_exporter requires access to system resources. Ensure the agent running it has appropriate permissions to collect the desired metrics, otherwise data may be incomplete or inaccurate.
