Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill generates code snippets with a focus on secure coding practices. It aims to help developers avoid common vulnerabilities and produce more robust applications. The generated code can be tailored to specific programming languages and security concerns, promoting safer software development workflows.
When to use it
- Generating boilerplate code: Quickly create initial code structures incorporating secure coding principles for new projects or features.
- Reviewing existing code: Generate alternative, more secure versions of potentially vulnerable code snippets.
- Learning secure coding techniques: Explore how to implement specific security measures by requesting examples from the skill.
- Automating repetitive tasks: Automatically generate secure code for common operations like input validation or data sanitization.
Key capabilities
- Code generation with a focus on security best practices
- Support for multiple programming languages (specific languages not listed)
- Tailoring generated code to specific vulnerability concerns
- Provides alternative, more secure code snippets
Example prompts
- "Generate a Python function to validate user input against SQL injection vulnerabilities."
- "Show me a secure way to handle file uploads in Node.js."
- “Create a Java method for securely hashing passwords.”
Tips & gotchas
The effectiveness of the generated code depends on the clarity and specificity of your prompts. Be sure to specify the programming language, desired security measures, and context when requesting code snippets.
