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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: mcp.sanity.io.

    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.

  • 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 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 sanity-io/agent-toolkit at 88d6cdfa7c.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

The sanity-best-practices skill provides guidance and tools for implementing best practices when working with Sanity, a headless CMS. It helps developers structure content schemas, optimize performance, ensure security, and maintain consistency across projects.

When to use it

  • When setting up a new Sanity project and looking for structured guidelines.
  • When optimizing an existing Sanity setup for better performance or scalability.
  • When ensuring that your Sanity configuration follows secure coding practices.
  • When onboarding new team members who need to understand Sanity conventions.

Key capabilities

  • Guidance on content schema design
  • Performance optimization strategies
  • Security best practices for Sanity projects
  • Tips for maintaining consistency across multiple environments

Example prompts

  • "How can I optimize my Sanity project for faster query performance?"
  • "What are the recommended security practices when using Sanity in a production environment?"
  • "Can you provide a template for structuring content types in Sanity?"

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your Sanity version is up to date to take full advantage of the latest best practices.
  • Review the official Sanity documentation alongside this skill for context-specific guidance.
