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
Only contacts known or declared hosts: github.com.
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.
Hosts contacted
github.comsource hostNo 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 microck/ordinary-claude-skills at 1056d293d4.
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 performs a security audit on provided text, identifying potential vulnerabilities and suggesting remediation steps. It can analyze code snippets, configuration files, or even natural language descriptions of systems to highlight areas of concern related to common security flaws. The output includes detailed explanations of the identified risks and actionable recommendations for improvement.
When to use it
- Code Review: Before deploying new code, use this skill to automatically scan for vulnerabilities like SQL injection or cross-site scripting (XSS).
- Configuration Analysis: Audit configuration files (e.g., Dockerfiles, Kubernetes manifests) to ensure they adhere to security best practices and avoid common misconfigurations.
- Security Documentation Review: Check descriptions of systems or processes for potential security gaps that might be missed during manual review.
- Penetration Testing Support: Use as a preliminary step in penetration testing to quickly identify low-hanging fruit vulnerabilities.
Key capabilities
- Vulnerability Identification
- Remediation Suggestions
- Code Analysis
- Configuration File Review
- Natural Language Security Assessment
Example prompts
- "Perform a security audit of this Python code: [code snippet]"
- "Analyze this Dockerfile for potential vulnerabilities: [Dockerfile content]"
- "Can you review this description of our application's authentication flow and identify any security concerns? [description]"
Tips & gotchas
The skill’s effectiveness depends on the clarity and completeness of the input. Provide well-formatted code or detailed descriptions for best results. The audit is not a substitute for comprehensive manual security testing.
