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 poletron/custom-rules at aba6668777.

    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 provides a set of guidelines for backend development, ensuring consistency and quality across projects. It helps developers adhere to established coding standards, best practices, and architectural patterns. The skill can be used to generate code snippets, review existing codebases, or provide feedback on design decisions.

When to use it

  • New project setup: To establish a consistent foundation for a new backend application.
  • Code reviews: To automatically check code against established guidelines and identify potential issues.
  • Refactoring legacy code: To ensure that refactored code adheres to current standards.
  • Onboarding new developers: To quickly familiarize them with the team's coding conventions.

Key capabilities

  • Provides backend development guidelines.
  • Enforces coding standards and best practices.
  • Supports architectural pattern adherence.
  • Generates code snippets based on guidelines.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Python function for user authentication following the backend guidelines."
  • "Review this Java class and identify any deviations from the established backend development patterns."
  • "What are the recommended practices for error handling in our backend system?"

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on having clearly defined and documented backend development guidelines. Ensure these guidelines are accessible to the AI agent for optimal results.
