Automated safety checks

scanned

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.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: app.getoutline.com.

    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.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows an AI agent to generate outlines based on a given topic or prompt. It can structure information into hierarchical formats, creating headings and subheadings to organize content effectively. The generated outlines are designed to provide a clear framework for writing, presentations, or other structured projects.

When to use it

  • Content Creation: Generate an outline before writing a blog post, article, or report.
  • Presentation Planning: Create a structural overview of your presentation topics and key points.
  • Project Structuring: Organize complex project tasks into a hierarchical outline for better management.
  • Brainstorming & Idea Organization: Quickly structure initial thoughts and ideas around a central theme.

Key capabilities

  • Generates outlines with headings and subheadings.
  • Structures content hierarchically.
  • Organizes information based on provided topics or prompts.

Example prompts

  • "Create an outline for a blog post about the benefits of meditation."
  • "Generate an outline for a presentation on climate change solutions."
  • "Outline the key steps involved in launching a new product."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the outline depends heavily on the clarity and specificity of the input prompt. Providing detailed instructions or context will yield more relevant and useful outlines.
