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
This skill ensures Python code adheres to established coding standards. It can automatically format code, identify style violations (like PEP 8), and suggest improvements for readability and maintainability. The skill aims to improve code quality by enforcing consistent formatting and best practices.
When to use it
- Code Review: When reviewing a colleague's Python code or your own before submission.
- Automated Formatting: To automatically format a codebase according to specific style guidelines.
- Learning & Education: For new developers learning Python, providing immediate feedback on coding style.
- Project Consistency: Maintaining consistent coding standards across large teams and projects.
Key capabilities
- PEP 8 compliance checking
- Automatic code formatting
- Style violation identification
- Code improvement suggestions
Example prompts
- "Format this Python script to adhere to PEP 8 guidelines."
- "Check this code for style violations and suggest improvements."
- "Can you reformat this function to improve readability?"
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires a valid Python environment to operate. It's most effective when integrated into a development workflow, rather than used as a one-off tool.
