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 dirnbauer/webconsulting-skills at 98b562d70f.

    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

The refactor-clean skill helps improve code quality and maintainability. It identifies and removes redundant or inefficient code, simplifies complex logic, and adheres to coding best practices. The result is cleaner, more readable, and easier-to-debug codebases.

When to use it

  • Legacy Code: Improve the structure and readability of older code that has accumulated technical debt.
  • Code Reviews: Automate initial refactoring suggestions during code review processes.
  • Performance Optimization: Identify and eliminate inefficient code patterns impacting application performance.
  • Onboarding New Developers: Simplify a codebase to make it easier for new team members to understand and contribute.

Key capabilities

  • Redundant code elimination
  • Inefficient pattern identification
  • Code simplification
  • Adherence to coding best practices

Example prompts

  • "Refactor this Python function to improve readability."
  • "Clean up this JavaScript block of code, removing any unnecessary lines."
  • "Suggest ways to optimize the performance of this Java method."

Tips & gotchas

The skill is most effective when provided with well-defined code blocks. Large or complex projects may require iterative refactoring sessions for optimal results.
