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 provides a comprehensive checklist to ensure Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are production-ready. It helps evaluate and improve the quality, reliability, and performance of RAG pipelines, covering aspects from data preparation to evaluation metrics. The checklist aims to reduce errors and optimize for real-world usage scenarios.
When to use it
- Pre-launch validation: Before deploying a new RAG application or significant updates to an existing one.
- Troubleshooting performance issues: When a RAG system is exhibiting unexpected behavior or inaccurate results.
- Regular maintenance: As part of routine checks to maintain the health and accuracy of a production RAG pipeline.
- Auditing for compliance: To ensure adherence to quality standards and best practices in RAG development.
Key capabilities
- Provides a structured checklist format.
- Covers data preparation, indexing, retrieval, generation, and evaluation stages.
- Offers guidance on common pitfalls and potential solutions.
- Focuses on production-level considerations for RAG systems.
Example prompts
- "Run the RAG production readiness checklist."
- "Evaluate my RAG pipeline using the production checklist; I'm seeing inconsistent results."
- "What are the key data preparation steps in the production RAG checklist?"
Tips & gotchas
The skill assumes a basic understanding of RAG architecture and components. It’s most effective when used by individuals familiar with the specific RAG implementation being assessed.
