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 am-will/codex-skills at 9f954c3b63.

    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

The parallel-task skill enables AI agents to execute multiple tasks simultaneously, improving efficiency and reducing overall processing time. It allows users to define a set of independent operations that can be run in parallel rather than sequentially.

When to use it

  • Processing large datasets where individual entries can be handled independently.
  • Running multiple API calls or data fetches at the same time.
  • Performing computationally intensive tasks like image processing or model training in parallel.
  • Optimizing workflows with interdependent steps that can be split into concurrent operations.

Key capabilities

  • Execute independent tasks concurrently.
  • Manage task dependencies and synchronization.
  • Improve performance by reducing idle time between operations.
  • Scale efficiently across multiple processors or threads.

Example prompts

  • "Run data analysis, image compression, and API calls in parallel."
  • "Process these 10 files simultaneously using the parallel-task skill."
  • "Execute the model training and data preprocessing steps concurrently."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure tasks are independent to avoid conflicts or race conditions.
  • Be mindful of system resource limits when running many parallel processes.
