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 thoughtbot/rails-audit-thoughtbot at d0f5270628.

    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

This skill provides auditing capabilities for Rails applications. It automatically records changes to models, allowing you to track who made what modifications and when. This is particularly useful for debugging data integrity issues or ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

When to use it

  • Debugging Data Issues: Investigate unexpected data changes by reviewing the audit trail of affected records.
  • Compliance Auditing: Generate reports demonstrating adherence to data modification policies.
  • Tracking Sensitive Changes: Monitor modifications to critical models like user accounts or financial transactions.
  • Identifying Unauthorized Access: Detect and investigate suspicious activity based on audit logs.

Key capabilities

  • Automatic tracking of model changes
  • Recording of user information for each change
  • Timestamped records of modifications

Example prompts

  • "Show me all changes to the 'User' model made by user 'admin'."
  • "Generate an audit report for the 'Product' model from yesterday."
  • "List all modifications to the 'Order' model where the total amount was changed."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a Rails application and may necessitate configuration within your config/application.rb file. Ensure that auditing is enabled in your environment for accurate tracking of changes.
