Automated safety checks

scanned 27 Sept 2026

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 plan-harder skill enhances an AI agent's ability to create detailed, structured plans for complex tasks. It enables agents to break down goals into actionable steps, consider multiple scenarios, and optimize workflows based on constraints or priorities.

When to use it

When you need a step-by-step strategy for a multi-stage project.
To generate contingency plans for unexpected obstacles in a workflow.
For optimizing resource allocation across tasks with limited availability.
When designing long-term strategies that require iterative refinement.

Key capabilities

Task decomposition into subtasks
Scenario analysis and risk mitigation planning
Resource optimization based on constraints
Iterative plan refinement

Example prompts

"Create a 3-month project plan for launching a new product, including marketing, development, and testing phases."
"Generate contingency plans for potential delays in the supply chain."
"Optimize this workflow to reduce time spent on manual tasks."

Tips & gotchas

Provide clear constraints or priorities upfront to ensure accurate planning.
The skill may require additional data inputs (e.g., timelines, budgets) for optimal results.
