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 nicepkg/ai-workflow at d167b41af7.

    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 resource-scout skill helps you find and install other skills. It acts as a discovery tool, allowing agents to search for available skills based on keywords or descriptions. Once found, the agent can then proceed with installing those identified skills into its workflow.

When to use it

  • Expanding Agent Capabilities: You want your AI agent to perform tasks beyond its current skillset and need help finding suitable skills to add.
  • Discovering New Tools: You're exploring the TrustedSkills registry and want an automated way to identify potentially useful skills for a specific purpose.
  • Automated Workflow Building: You are building complex workflows that require integrating multiple skills, and you need a tool to automatically discover and install dependencies.
  • Skill Dependency Management: Your agent needs to incorporate new skills as they become available or when existing ones are updated.

Key capabilities

  • Search for skills by keyword or description.
  • Identify available skills within the TrustedSkills registry.
  • Initiate skill installation processes.

Example prompts

  • "Find me a skill related to data visualization."
  • "What skills can help with sentiment analysis?"
  • “Install any skills that improve text summarization.”

Tips & gotchas

The resource-scout skill relies on the TrustedSkills registry being up-to-date. Ensure your agent has network access to reliably query and install skills.
