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 payloadcms/skills at 832d5bc425.

    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 payload skill enables AI agents to manage and manipulate structured data payloads, such as JSON or XML formats. It supports operations like parsing, validating, transforming, and serializing payloads for use in APIs, databases, or other systems that require structured input.

When to use it

  • When preparing data for transmission between services via API calls.
  • When ensuring data conforms to a specific schema before storing it in a database.
  • When converting raw user inputs into standardized formats for processing.
  • When debugging or inspecting the contents of complex data structures during development.

Key capabilities

  • Parsing JSON and XML payloads
  • Validating data against predefined schemas
  • Transforming payload structures (e.g., flattening nested objects)
  • Serializing data back to string format

Example prompts

  • "Parse this JSON into a structured object."
  • "Validate the following XML against the schema provided."
  • "Convert this user input into a standardized JSON format."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that schemas are well-defined and up-to-date for accurate validation.
  • Be mindful of nested structures, as they may require recursive parsing or transformation logic.
