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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
The Prompt Architect skill helps you refine and optimize prompts for AI agents. It structures complex requests, ensuring clarity and precision in instructions to improve output quality. This includes breaking down large tasks into smaller steps and incorporating specific constraints or formatting requirements.
When to use it
- Generating detailed reports: When needing a structured report with specific sections and data points from an AI agent.
- Creating complex creative content: For crafting stories, scripts, or marketing copy that requires adherence to particular styles or tones.
- Automating repetitive tasks: To define precise instructions for agents performing recurring actions like data extraction or summarization.
- Improving the accuracy of responses: When needing consistent and reliable answers from an AI agent by clarifying ambiguous requests.
Key capabilities
- Prompt structuring
- Task decomposition
- Constraint incorporation
- Formatting specification
Example prompts
- "Architect a prompt for generating five blog post ideas about sustainable living, including target keywords."
- "Can you structure a prompt to summarize this research paper into three key takeaways and a list of future research directions?"
- “Build a prompt that asks the agent to write a short story in the style of Ernest Hemingway.”
Tips & gotchas
The effectiveness of Prompt Architect depends on having a clear understanding of the desired outcome. It's best used when you have a general idea of what you want but need help translating it into an actionable prompt for the AI agent.
