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 ratacat/claude-skills at d4b471d05d.

    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, authored by ratacat, provides AI agents with debugging capabilities. It allows users to discover and install skills for AI agents. The specific functionality of the debugging skill is not detailed in the provided source.

When to use it

  • When you need an AI agent to help identify errors in code or processes.
  • To troubleshoot unexpected behavior from other AI agents or systems.
  • For assistance in understanding and resolving complex technical issues.
  • During development cycles to quickly pinpoint and fix bugs.

Key capabilities

  • Skill discovery
  • Skill installation

Example prompts

  • "Can you help me debug this code?"
  • "I'm encountering an error, can you assist in troubleshooting it?"
  • "What are the potential causes of this unexpected behavior?"

Tips & gotchas

The specific debugging techniques and tools available through this skill aren’t detailed. Further documentation or examples from the author (ratacat) would be needed to fully understand its capabilities.
