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 robzolkos/skill-rails-upgrade at d9a3432b19.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The rails-upgrade skill automates Rails application upgrades, handling common tasks like database migrations and gem updates. It streamlines the process of moving between Rails versions, reducing manual effort and potential errors during the upgrade lifecycle. This ensures applications remain secure and benefit from the latest features.

When to use it

  • You need to update a Ruby on Rails application to a newer version (e.g., upgrading from Rails 6 to Rails 7).
  • Your development team wants to automate repetitive tasks associated with Rails upgrades, such as gem updates and database migrations.
  • You're facing compatibility issues due to outdated Rails versions and need to quickly resolve them.
  • To ensure your application is running on a supported version of Rails for security patches and new features.

Key capabilities

  • Automated Rails version upgrade process.
  • Handles gem updates during the upgrade.
  • Manages database migrations associated with the upgrade.

Example prompts

  • "Upgrade my Rails application to version 7."
  • "Perform a Rails upgrade and update all gems to their latest compatible versions."
  • “Run the necessary database migrations after upgrading to Rails 6.1.”

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires access to your Rails application's codebase and configuration files. Ensure you have appropriate permissions before initiating an upgrade process, as it can potentially impact your environment.
