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 trailofbits/skills-curated at 6d05be4889.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The openai-screenshot skill allows AI agents to generate screenshots of web pages. It leverages OpenAI's capabilities to capture a visual representation of a given URL, enabling tasks that require visual context or documentation. This can be particularly useful for automated workflows involving website analysis and reporting.

When to use it

  • Documenting Website Changes: Automatically create snapshots of webpages over time to track updates and changes in design or content.
  • Generating Visual Reports: Include screenshots as evidence or illustrations within reports generated by the AI agent.
  • Automated Testing: Capture screenshots during automated testing processes to visually verify UI elements and functionality.
  • Creating Tutorials/Guides: Generate images for step-by-step guides that involve interacting with web interfaces.

Key capabilities

  • Generates screenshots of specified URLs.
  • Utilizes OpenAI's underlying image generation models.

Example prompts

  • "Take a screenshot of https://www.example.com."
  • "Generate a visual record of the homepage for https://openai.com."
  • "Create a screenshot showing the login page for https://mybank.com."

Tips & gotchas

  • The quality and accuracy of the screenshot depend on OpenAI's current image generation capabilities.
  • Ensure the target URL is accessible and publicly available for the agent to capture a screenshot.
