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 wondelai/skills at c172996495.

    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 Release It skill helps AI agents assess and improve the resilience of software systems for production environments. Based on the principles of the Release It! Framework, the agent can evaluate existing systems, identify potential failure points (anti-patterns), and suggest improvements to ensure stability, observability, and graceful degradation in the face of unexpected issues. The goal is to move beyond simply ensuring code correctness to building truly production-ready software.

When to use it

  • When reviewing designs for new software systems.
  • To evaluate existing production systems and identify areas for improvement.
  • During post-incident analysis to understand root causes of outages and prevent recurrence.
  • To guide teams in implementing best practices for resilience and observability.
  • To score a system's adherence to Release It! principles on a scale of 0-10, identifying gaps and suggesting improvements.

Key capabilities

  • Anti-Pattern Identification: Recognizes common failure patterns (e.g., cascading failures, slow responses) that can lead to production outages.
  • Resilience Scoring: Evaluates systems based on Release It! principles and assigns a score from 0-10.
  • Improvement Recommendations: Provides specific suggestions for mitigating identified risks and achieving higher resilience scores (e.g., implementing timeouts, circuit breakers, result set limits).
  • Contextual Application: Offers practical code application examples related to HTTP calls, database queries, thread pools, and load testing.

Example prompts

  • "Assess the stability of our new order processing system using the Release It! Framework."
  • "What are the potential failure points in our payment gateway integration?"
  • "Score our current search service based on Release It! principles and suggest improvements to reach a score of 10/10."
  • “How can we prevent cascading failures when integrating with our external notification service?”

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill focuses on production resilience, not general code quality.
  • Understanding the core concepts of the Release It! Framework (integration points, cascading failures) will improve your ability to utilize the skill effectively.
  • The scoring system is a guideline; prioritize addressing critical failure patterns over achieving a perfect score.
