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 personamanagmentlayer/pcl at 79ccaa9820.

    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 expert guidance related to the OpenAPI Specification (OAS), formerly known as Swagger. It allows AI agents to understand and work with API descriptions formatted in YAML or JSON, enabling tasks like automatic documentation generation, client/server code generation, API validation, and testing. The skill supports OAS versions 3.1 (the latest) and 3.0.

When to use it

  • When needing to understand the structure and functionality of a RESTful API described using OpenAPI.
  • To generate documentation for an API based on its OpenAPI definition.
  • For validating an OpenAPI document against the specification.
  • To assist in generating code (client or server-side) from an OpenAPI definition.

Key capabilities

  • Understanding and interpreting OpenAPI Specification documents (versions 3.0 & 3.1).
  • Knowledge of core OAS components: Paths, Operations, Parameters, Request/Response bodies, Schemas, Security schemes, and Components.
  • Ability to analyze API endpoints, HTTP methods, request parameters, and response structures defined in the OpenAPI document.

Example prompts

  • "Explain the purpose of the /posts endpoint in this OpenAPI definition."
  • "Generate documentation for the createPost operation based on this OpenAPI specification."
  • "Validate this OpenAPI file and identify any errors."

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill requires a valid OpenAPI Specification document (YAML or JSON) as input.
  • While it supports both OAS 3.0 and 3.1, the behavior might vary slightly depending on the version used.
