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 djankies/claude-configs at a82763a6e7.

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

1 file, 350 lines
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 refactors inline types into named type definitions within TypeScript code. It helps improve code readability and maintainability by extracting complex type structures from their usage locations, giving them descriptive names. The skill aims to reduce redundancy and make type checking more robust across a codebase. This process is particularly useful when dealing with deeply nested or repeated type patterns.

When to use it

  • Complex Type Definitions: When you have long, complicated types directly embedded within function signatures or variable declarations.
  • Code Duplication: When the same complex type structure is used in multiple places throughout your codebase.
  • Improved Readability: To make code easier to understand and reason about by giving meaningful names to type definitions.
  • Refactoring Legacy Code: As part of a larger effort to modernize or improve the quality of an existing TypeScript project.

Key capabilities

  • Extracts inline types into named type declarations.
  • Supports various TypeScript type constructs (e.g., interfaces, type aliases).
  • Automates the refactoring process based on provided code snippets.

Example prompts

  • "Refactor the following TypeScript code to extract inline types:" [paste code snippet]
  • "Improve readability of this function by defining a named type for its parameter:" [paste code snippet]
  • "Can you identify and refactor any repeated complex types in this file?" [paste file content]

Tips & gotchas

  • This skill requires valid TypeScript code as input. Errors in the provided code may lead to unexpected results or failures.
  • The skill's effectiveness depends on the complexity and structure of the inline types; very simple types might not benefit from refactoring.
