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
The rails-active-job skill enables asynchronous processing of background jobs within a Rails application. It allows you to decouple long-running tasks from the main request cycle, improving response times and overall application performance. This is achieved by enqueuing jobs to be processed later by workers.
When to use it
- Sending transactional emails: Instead of sending emails directly during user registration or order placement, enqueue them for background processing.
- Generating reports: Offload report generation tasks from the web request flow to prevent delays in serving users.
- Processing large datasets: Handle computationally intensive operations like image resizing or data imports asynchronously.
- Performing third-party API calls: Integrate with external services without blocking the user interface.
Key capabilities
- Job enqueueing
- Background job processing
- Integration with various adapters (e.g., Sidekiq, Resque)
- Active Job base class for defining jobs
- Job prioritization
Example prompts
- "Enqueue a welcome email to be sent to user @john.doe."
- "Create an Active Job to generate the monthly sales report."
- “Run all pending active job tasks.”
Tips & gotchas
- Requires a background processing system like Sidekiq or Resque to be configured and running separately from the Rails application.
- Ensure proper error handling and retry mechanisms are implemented within your Active Job classes.
