Install target

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 parcadei/continuous-claude-v3 at d07ff4b06b.

    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

search-tools

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to discover and install additional capabilities directly from a registry. It acts as a bridge, allowing agents to dynamically expand their functionality by fetching new tools based on user requirements or specific task contexts.

When to use it

  • Dynamic Capability Expansion: When an agent encounters a task outside its current knowledge base and needs to fetch a specialized tool to complete the request.
  • On-Demand Installation: In scenarios where the environment requires installing specific utilities before executing complex workflows.
  • Registry Interaction: When integrating with external skill repositories to browse, evaluate, and deploy new agent behaviors.
  • Contextual Tooling: To allow agents to adapt their toolset based on the evolving needs of a conversation or project phase.

Key capabilities

  • Discovery of available skills within a registry ecosystem.
  • Installation of new tools directly into the agent's environment.
  • Dynamic fetching of capabilities based on user prompts.
  • Integration with external repositories for continuous skill updates.

Example prompts

  • "Install the search-tools skill so I can help you find specific information online."
  • "Discover and install a new capability that allows me to analyze code snippets."
  • "Fetch the latest tools from the registry to assist with this data processing task."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure the AI agent has appropriate permissions to execute installation commands, as adding new tools often requires elevated access or specific environment configurations. Be mindful of potential version conflicts when installing multiple skills simultaneously that might rely on different underlying libraries.
