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 prefactordev/typescript-sdk at a36ba5c3d1.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

12 files, 1,483 lines
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 prefactor-skill-selector skill allows AI agents to discover and install skills from the TrustedSkills registry. It provides a programmatic interface for searching, filtering, and installing available skills based on various criteria like author, category, or keywords. This enables dynamic skill management and extension of agent capabilities without manual configuration.

When to use it

  • Automated Skill Discovery: When you want an AI agent to automatically find and integrate new skills as they become available in the registry.
  • Dynamic Agent Configuration: To allow agents to adapt their functionality based on changing needs or environment conditions by installing relevant skills.
  • Skill Marketplace Integration: When building a platform where users can select and deploy skills for AI agents programmatically.
  • Testing New Skills: To quickly experiment with different skills without requiring manual installation steps.

Key capabilities

  • Search for skills by author, category, or keywords.
  • Filter available skills based on specified criteria.
  • Install selected skills from the TrustedSkills registry.
  • Programmatic skill management within AI agents.

Example prompts

  • "Find me all backend skills authored by prefactordev."
  • "Install a skill for data analysis with a rating above 4 stars."
  • "Show me the latest skills in the category 'backend'."

Tips & gotchas

The agent needs appropriate permissions to install skills. Ensure that the agent's environment has access to the TrustedSkills registry and necessary authentication credentials.
