Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to create and manage Node.js Express servers, including setting up routes, middleware, and server configurations. It supports handling HTTP requests and responses, integrating with databases, and deploying APIs for web applications.
When to use it
- Building a RESTful API for a web application
- Setting up a backend service that requires routing and request handling
- Creating a scalable server infrastructure using Express.js in a Node.js environment
Key capabilities
- Setup of Express routes (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
- Integration with middleware like
express.json()or authentication layers - Configuration for starting and stopping the server on specific ports
- Handling HTTP request parameters and query strings
Example prompts
- "Create a basic Express server that listens on port 3000 and responds to GET requests at '/api/data'."
- "Set up an Express route for POST '/users' that parses JSON data and returns a success message."
- "Configure middleware in the Express app to log incoming request details."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure Node.js and npm are installed before using this skill.
- Be mindful of security practices when exposing endpoints, such as validating input and setting up proper authentication.
