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 secondsky/claude-skills at 8837836131.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to automatically discover and verify the health status of various endpoints within your infrastructure. It provides a mechanism for agents to probe services and confirm they are responding correctly before attempting further interactions or data retrieval.

When to use it

  • Before initiating complex workflows that depend on external APIs being available.
  • To validate service availability in dynamic environments where endpoints may change frequently.
  • When an agent needs to ensure system stability prior to executing critical business logic.
  • During automated monitoring tasks to detect and report outages early.

Key capabilities

  • Scans predefined lists of URLs or services for responsiveness.
  • Returns clear status indicators (e.g., healthy, degraded, down) based on endpoint responses.
  • Supports integration into broader orchestration pipelines for conditional execution.

Example prompts

  • "Check the health status of all endpoints listed in my production environment before starting the daily report generation."
  • "Verify if the payment gateway API is responding correctly before processing customer transactions."
  • "Run a quick health check on the database connection pool and alert me if any nodes are offline."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure that the endpoints you configure allow external probes or have appropriate authentication headers set up for agent access. This skill does not perform deep diagnostic analysis; it only confirms basic reachability and response status, so pair it with more detailed monitoring tools for comprehensive observability.
