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 armanzeroeight/fastagent-plugins at 61b61a99e6.

    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 rest-api-designer skill allows AI agents to design REST APIs based on provided specifications or natural language descriptions. It can generate API endpoint definitions, including request methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), parameters, and response structures. This streamlines the process of creating backend infrastructure for applications.

When to use it

  • Rapid prototyping: Quickly generate a basic API structure for testing purposes without manual coding.
  • API documentation generation: Create initial drafts of API documentation based on defined endpoints and schemas.
  • Backend development assistance: Automate the creation of boilerplate code for REST APIs, freeing up developers to focus on more complex logic.
  • Defining new services: Design APIs from scratch based on a description of desired functionality.

Key capabilities

  • API endpoint definition generation
  • Request method specification (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
  • Parameter handling and validation
  • Response structure design

Example prompts

  • "Design a REST API for managing books with endpoints for creating, reading, updating, and deleting."
  • "Generate an API endpoint to retrieve user data by ID, including name, email, and address."
  • “Create a POST endpoint for submitting feedback with fields: message (string), rating (integer).”

Tips & gotchas

The quality of the generated API design depends heavily on the clarity and completeness of the input specifications. Providing detailed requirements will yield more accurate and usable results.
