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 2 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 2 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: istio.io, run.linkerd.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.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: failed

    Runs code fetched at install time in 2 places.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • 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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned bagelhole/devops-security-agent-skills at 0365f57a07.

    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 allows an AI agent to understand and interact with service mesh technologies. It can analyze configurations, troubleshoot issues related to traffic routing and security policies, and provide insights into the health and performance of microservices deployed within a service mesh environment. The skill facilitates automated management and optimization tasks for complex distributed systems.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting Service Connectivity: Diagnose why requests are failing between services in a microservice architecture managed by a service mesh.
  • Analyzing Traffic Patterns: Identify bottlenecks or unusual traffic flows within the service mesh.
  • Security Policy Enforcement: Review and validate security policies (e.g., mTLS) configured within the service mesh to ensure compliance.
  • Performance Optimization: Suggest improvements to routing rules or resource allocation based on observed performance metrics.

Key capabilities

  • Configuration analysis
  • Traffic routing understanding
  • Security policy interpretation
  • Health and performance monitoring

Example prompts

  • "What is the current traffic flow for service 'payment-service'?"
  • "Show me any security policies applied to endpoint '/api/users'."
  • "Why are requests to 'inventory-service' timing out?"

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires familiarity with service mesh concepts and terminology. The agent’s effectiveness depends on the quality and completeness of the available service mesh configuration data.
