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

    Only contacts known or declared hosts: github.com, www.w3.org.

    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 imxv/pretty-mermaid-skills at e234ab73c2.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill generates Mermaid diagrams from text descriptions. It allows users to visualize workflows, system architectures, or other processes using a standard diagramming language. The resulting diagrams can be rendered in various formats and integrated into documentation or presentations.

When to use it

  • Documenting complex systems: Create visual representations of software architecture or data flows for better understanding and communication.
  • Workflow visualization: Map out business processes or automated workflows using a clear, diagrammatic format.
  • Generating technical diagrams: Quickly create sequence diagrams, flowcharts, or other technical illustrations from textual descriptions.
  • Creating presentations: Include visually appealing Mermaid diagrams in presentations to illustrate concepts and ideas.

Key capabilities

  • Generates Mermaid diagrams from text input.
  • Supports various Mermaid diagram types (e.g., flowchart, sequence diagram).
  • Provides a standardized visual representation of processes and systems.

Example prompts

  • "Create a flowchart showing the steps for ordering a pizza."
  • "Generate a sequence diagram illustrating user authentication."
  • "Draw a simple graph representing website traffic over time."

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the generated diagram depends heavily on the clarity and specificity of the input text. Ensure your descriptions are well-defined to achieve accurate and useful visualizations.
