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 proffesor-for-testing/sentinel-api-testing at 704f47fbc4.

    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

The "brutal-honesty-review" skill provides rigorous and direct feedback on API testing scenarios. It focuses on identifying weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and areas for improvement in test cases with a harsh but constructive approach. The agent will pinpoint flaws that might be missed by more lenient review processes, ensuring higher quality tests.

When to use it

  • Reviewing automated API test suites before release to identify gaps or potential failure points.
  • Evaluating the effectiveness of exploratory testing sessions and identifying areas needing further investigation.
  • Assessing the robustness of integration tests across different services.
  • Analyzing security-focused API tests for overlooked attack vectors.

Key capabilities

  • Direct, critical feedback on test case design.
  • Identification of potential vulnerabilities in API tests.
  • Assessment of test coverage and completeness.
  • Focus on identifying weaknesses rather than just confirming functionality.

Example prompts

  • "Review this API test suite for security vulnerabilities: [test suite content]"
  • "Critique the following test case, focusing on edge cases it misses: [test case description]"
  • "Analyze these integration tests and tell me where they are likely to fail."

Tips & gotchas

The skill's blunt feedback can be jarring. Be prepared for potentially harsh criticism; focus on using this as a tool for improvement rather than taking the comments personally.
