Install target

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 mindrally/skills at 7682ca7771.

    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 expertise in using React Query (now TanStack Query) for managing data fetching, caching, and state within React applications. It guides users to leverage React Query's built-in features like background updates, stale data management, and error handling to simplify frontend development workflows. The skill emphasizes best practices for integrating React Query into a project structure and configuring its default options.

When to use it

  • When building complex user interfaces that require fetching and caching data from APIs.
  • To replace useState with React Query's built-in state management for server data.
  • For projects needing robust error handling and loading state management during API calls.
  • When aiming to optimize performance by implementing effective caching strategies and reducing unnecessary API requests.
  • In situations where you want to centralize your data fetching logic and improve code maintainability.

Key capabilities

  • Expertise in React Query (TanStack Query) principles and best practices.
  • Guidance on using built-in caching, background updates, and stale data management.
  • Recommendations for handling loading states and errors gracefully.
  • Advice on configuring QueryClient with custom options like staleTime, cacheTime, and retry behavior.
  • Examples of creating query hooks (useQuery) and mutation hooks.

Example prompts

  • "How do I implement caching for user data using React Query?"
  • "What's the best way to handle errors when fetching data with React Query?"
  • "Can you show me an example of a dependent query in React Query?"

Tips & gotchas

  • This skill assumes familiarity with React and TypeScript.
  • The skill focuses on using React Query for data fetching; it does not cover all aspects of frontend development or general API integrations.
  • Pay close attention to configuring the QueryClient's default options to optimize caching behavior based on your application’s needs.
