Automated safety checks
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
SKILL.md frontmatter is missing 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 provides guidance and code examples for implementing FastAPI best practices. It helps developers write cleaner, more maintainable, and performant FastAPI applications by adhering to established patterns and conventions. The skill focuses on aspects like dependency injection, data validation with Pydantic, and API documentation generation using OpenAPI.
When to use it
- When starting a new FastAPI project and wanting to ensure adherence to best practices from the outset.
- During code reviews to identify areas where existing FastAPI code can be improved.
- To refactor an older FastAPI application to enhance its maintainability and performance.
- When needing assistance with implementing specific features like dependency injection or data validation in a FastAPI API.
Key capabilities
- Dependency Injection guidance
- Pydantic data validation examples
- OpenAPI documentation generation techniques
- Code structure and organization recommendations
- Performance optimization strategies for FastAPI applications
Example prompts
- "Show me how to implement dependency injection in my FastAPI application."
- "Give me an example of using Pydantic for request body validation."
- "How can I generate OpenAPI documentation for my FastAPI API?"
Tips & gotchas
- This skill assumes a basic understanding of Python and the FastAPI framework. Familiarity with asynchronous programming is also beneficial.
