Automated safety checks

scanned 3 Oct 2026

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

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 restart skill allows an AI agent to reset its internal state or context. This is useful for clearing out old information and starting fresh, preventing the accumulation of irrelevant data that could impact subsequent tasks. The skill provides a clean slate for the agent to begin new interactions or processes.

When to use it

After a long conversation where the AI agent's memory has become cluttered with details.
When switching between significantly different topics or tasks, ensuring no prior context interferes.
To troubleshoot unexpected behavior by returning the agent to its initial state.
Before performing a complex task that requires focused attention and minimal external influence.

Key capabilities

Context clearing: Removes all previously stored information.
State reset: Returns the AI agent to its default operational configuration.

Example prompts

"Please restart."
"Clear my context and start over."
"Reset your memory."

Tips & gotchas

The effectiveness of this skill depends on how the underlying AI agent handles state management. It’s a simple tool, but it's crucial for maintaining accuracy and relevance in extended interactions.
