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 manutej/luxor-claude-marketplace at 1861cc9720.

    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 enables AI agents to generate, refactor, and validate REST API specifications using industry-standard design patterns. It ensures consistent architecture for services requiring scalability, security, and maintainability.

When to use it

  • Building new microservices that need standardized endpoint structures.
  • Refactoring legacy monolithic APIs into modular, resource-oriented designs.
  • Validating existing endpoints against best practices like versioning and error handling.
  • Creating documentation-ready API schemas for frontend integration teams.

Key capabilities

  • Generates OpenAPI/Swagger specifications from natural language descriptions.
  • Applies architectural patterns such as CRUD operations, pagination, and filtering.
  • Enforces consistent status codes, response formats, and authentication flows.
  • Suggests improvements for security headers and rate limiting strategies.

Example prompts

  • "Design a REST API for an e-commerce inventory system with user authentication."
  • "Refactor this existing endpoint list to follow resource-oriented design principles."
  • "Generate OpenAPI documentation for a payment gateway service with idempotency support."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has access to context about business logic, as generic patterns may not fit niche workflows. Always review generated code for security implications before deployment in production environments.
