Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to build dynamic, single-page applications using Ruby on Rails and Hotwire. It leverages Turbo Streams and Turbo Frames to deliver seamless page transitions without writing custom JavaScript.
When to use it
- Creating interactive dashboards that update data in real-time without full page reloads.
- Building modern user interfaces where a traditional server-side rendered Rails app feels too slow.
- Implementing complex forms or chat interfaces that require instant feedback loops.
- Developing applications that need to maintain state across multiple views efficiently.
Key capabilities
- Turbo Streams: Sends HTML fragments via AJAX to update parts of the page dynamically.
- Turbo Frames: Allows specific sections of a page to be replaced by fetching new content from the server.
- Server-Side Rendering: Maintains SEO benefits and initial load speed typical of Rails.
- Zero-Dependency Frontend: Eliminates the need for heavy JavaScript frameworks like React or Vue.
Example prompts
- "Generate a Rails controller action that uses Turbo Streams to append new list items when a user submits a form."
- "Create a Turbo Frame setup where clicking a link loads product details into a specific container without reloading the page."
- "Write a Rails view using Hotwire to toggle visibility of a section based on a server response."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent understands that this approach relies heavily on HTML generation from the backend, as frontend logic is minimal. While it reduces JavaScript complexity, you must still handle error states and loading indicators within the HTML responses returned by Rails actions.
