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 ovachiever/droid-tings at 7acd12a754.

    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 automates the process of packaging Python projects into distributable formats. It handles creating setup.py files, building source distributions (sdist), and wheel packages (bdist_wheel). This enables easy sharing and installation of Python code as reusable libraries or applications.

When to use it

  • You need to distribute a Python project you've developed.
  • You want to create installable packages for others to easily use your code.
  • You are building a library or application that requires dependency management.
  • You're automating the build process of a Python project as part of a larger workflow.

Key capabilities

  • Generates setup.py files.
  • Builds source distributions (sdist).
  • Creates wheel packages (bdist_wheel).

Example prompts

  • "Create a setup file for my Python project called 'myproject' with version 1.0."
  • "Package the current directory as a Python wheel."
  • “Build a source distribution for this project.”

Tips & gotchas

The agent requires access to a Python environment and necessary build tools (like setuptools and wheel) to function correctly. Ensure these are installed before using the skill, or specify them in your prompt if needed.
